Here’s a look at the Gruver Greyhounds heading into the 2025 football season. Press Pass Sports reporter Lee Baker was able to get a word in with head coach Kurt Haberthur during fall camp. Haberthur talked about carrying the success of last year’s state semifinal run into this season and managing expectations. Haberthur also chatted about some key players that returned in quarterback Briggs Satterfield and wide receiver Brock Butler.

Players to watch

Briggs Satterfield, 6-1, 170-pounds, QB, Sr.

Satterfield has become one of the top signal callers in the Texas Panhandle and across the state at the small school level. The dual-threat QB can beat you with his arm but is just as deadly with his feet. In 2024, Satterfield was a huge reason the Greyhounds were a game away from AT&T Stadium throwing for 2,935 yards while rushing for 935 yards for a combined 55 touchdowns.

Victor Flores, 5-9, 185-pounds, LB, Sr.

Flores made an immediate impact at the linebacker position for the Greyhounds last season. He isn’t the biggest but can fly all over the football field and has a nose for the ball. Flores tallied 127 tackles a year ago, 21 of those for a loss with three sacks.

Brock Butler, 5-10, 150-pounds, WR-DB, Sr.

Whether he’s playing offense or defense, Butler is a gamechanger for the Greyhounds. He is a valuable asset for Satterfield snagging 38 catches a year ago for 703 yards with six touchdowns. Defensively in the secondary, Butler was in on 84 tackles with two interception returns for TDs.
