His training regimens directly enhanced the development of top-tier NFL and collegiate talents, including first-round draft pick Mekhi Becton, Tutu Atwell, Javian Hawkins, Malik Cunningham, Kei'Trel Clark, and Yaya Diaby.

From 2016 to 2019, Satchell led the entire athletic performance department at the University of New Mexico as the Director of Athletic Performance.
