Mark Hudspeth (born November 10, 1968) is the current head football coach of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Previously, Hudspeth was a four-year football letterman at Delta State University, head coach at the University of North Alabama, and an assistant coach (Wide Receivers and Passing Game Coordinator) at Mississippi State under head coach Dan Mullen.
In his first season as the Ragin' Cajuns' head football coach in 2011, all of Louisiana–Lafayette's wins were vacated due to self-imposed penalties stemming from the NCAA's investigation of major violations under Hudspeth. Since then, Hudspeth led Louisiana–Lafayette to three consecutive seasons finishing with 9-4 records and wins in the New Orleans Bowl.
Hudspeth is married to Tyla McConnell and has three sons and one daughter.
