SMU Announces Addition Of Sandlin To Recruiting Staff
DALLAS (SMU) – Head Coach Rhett Lashlee announced the hiring of J.R. Sandlin to SMU's football recruiting staff on Wednesday.
Sandlin will join the Mustangs in the role of Assistant A.D. & General Manager. The addition of Sandlin enhances an already talented recruiting/personnel team at SMU as it transitions into the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) for 2024. Alex Brown will continue to lead SMU's scouting department as Senior Director of Scouting & Player Personnel.
Brown has been instrumental in the Mustangs' rise under Lashlee the last two seasons, helping the program land the 13th-ranked transfer class in 2023 which led to the first conference championship since 1984 this past fall.
Sandlin brings high-level experience and knowledge to the Hilltop after spending the past two years as Director of Player Personnel & Recruiting at Oklahoma, serving as a key piece in the Sooners’ recruiting efforts behind the scenes during head coach Brent Venables' first two seasons in Norman. Oklahoma was able to land consensus top-10 classes by multiple publications during that span.
Sandlin has also spent time at Jacksonville State, Notre Dame, Tennessee and Alabama.
