UTSA head coach Jeff Traylor offers blunt response to Alex Golesh’s viral comments about buying players
Former Tennessee Vols offensive coordinator Alex Golesh went viral last week for his post-game comments directed at UTSA head coach Jeff Traylor.

Former Tennessee Vols offensive coordinator Alex Golesh went viral last week for his post-game comments directed at UTSA head coach Jeff Traylor.
Golesh, who is in his third season as the head coach at USF, wasn’t happy with comments that Traylor made about “the amount of money that’s been spent on that (USF) roster”
“I respect Coach Traylor so much,” said Golesh following USF’s 55-23 win over UTSA. “I respect the program that he’s built from the ground up. I’ve kept my mouth shut on it all week, but I do want to guard the comments made about — and I understand what he’s doing. He’s trying to generate more (NIL money) for his own program, but don’t do it at the expense of us. Don’t do it at the expense of commenting about the resources we have and about what our roster looks like and how much money is spent on a roster.
“Your prerogative is to go build your own program. But I think when you’re talking about money [spent] on a roster, you’re taking away from the fact that there’s a bunch of dudes in that locker room that have poured into the process. There’s a bunch of coaches that have demanded it of them. And I think when you make comments like that — that rosters are bought — it discredits the fact that there’s recruiting, that there’s relationships being built, that there’s development and coaching going on.”
Jeff Traylor offers blunt response to Alex Golesh’s viral comments about buying players
Traylor met with reporters on Monday, ahead of UTSA’s upcoming game against Charlotte, and he was asked about Golesh’s comments.
The sixth-year UTSA head coach offered a short and blunt response.
“When you win, you get to say what you want to at the mic,” said Traylor. “So, congratulations, Alex. Your team whooped our tail.”
It certainly doesn’t sound like Traylor put much thought into what Golesh had to say last Thursday night — even though Golesh made some solid points about his USF program.
