In 2019, Mark Hudspeth took Austin Peay to the FCS Quarterfinals in his first year (after he inherited a Governors team with a losing record).

It has been 5 years since the "allegations". If Hugh Freeze got a second chance, why not Mark Hudspeth?

He knows the region from his time at ULL. He's won at the FCS level.

Give me a reason (besides your daughter/sister/wife/girlfriend lives in Lake Charles) that Hudspeth shouldn't be brought into to Make McNeese Football Great Again.

Because there are 100s of old men in their 70s dying to make donations to bring back Bobby Keasler

McNeese football is almost too far gone and to the point of no return.

When you say "allegations" you'll have to be more specific. Are you referring to the academic fraud and paying players at ULL, his dumping his wife for a coed at UNA, or his sleeping with a player's mother at Austin Peay?

They should shut down the football program and dump their money into basketball. They could keep wade and stack a roster and fill the arena!!!

I mean...the same shite Ole Miss was obviously doing, and quite honestly, very likely the entire SEC not named Vandy?

Well he did get a second chance...then he went to a high school job.

Dude was great for coming into our program at the time he did and showing Acadiana and the country that a football coach could win at UL. And the rah rah stuff worked great when he had a bunch of good, disciplined Bustle recruits who just needed someone to kick them in the arse rather than be a perpetual "everything is great" old cheerleader like Bustle was on the sidelines.

However, once Bustle's character guys graduated and the team started filling with a bunch of Hud's guys...it went downhill fast.

Maybe he could bring some energy to revive McNeese's program, but they'll have to hope he's left those other antics behind.

Hud should just be a 1-2 year mercenary for teams. Let him get the team off the ground and then hire a more sustainable coach.

Seems to be really good at getting things going but not sustaining.

Oh yeah- the David Saunders ACT program he developed for Ole Miss where he'd send kids to take the test at Jerrell Poe's high school it worked like magic to get Hud's Mississippi recruits eligible ..... Until it didn't

Incredible that he had to cheat at ole miss when the school's minimum ACT requirement is still only an 18. Dont believe me? Look it up.

The loss of the recruits that he was able to sign due to the shady ACT testing site ( academic fraud) in Mississippi didn't help. The loss of Bustle's recruits, Mississippi recruits & the probation that followed did him in.
