Mark Hudspeth

[CRAWFISH61]

I never said Viator should be the coach. If you are referring to my question yesterday, much like today it was simply a question to get a better understanding of Candidates for the position. I don't spend all day like some people consumed with this coaching search but I do like to be a little informed about it. So i ask questions in the hopes that intelligent people give an answer.

Joshua Parrot has a good description of his offense in today's paper. There is a link to it on ragin pagin. If you read it I think your questions would be answered.

From Parrott's article:

"In 2008, Hudspeth told American Football Monthly that UNA utilized the spread about 50 percent of the time while he was there. The Lions also ran out the I-formation with the quarterback under center and out of the shotgun with split backs.

That up-tempo, no-huddle approach made life tough for opposing defenses. UNA was averaging 45 points and 555 yards of total offense per game at the time."

Isn't that better than what we were "guaranteed" by CajunNation if we hired Sewak???

Is there any concern that the HC opening at Florida will trickle down to effect Hudspeth in any way?

Yes, there's concern.

But we have no way of knowing Hudspeth's desires (whether it be head coaching, or coordinating at a super major).

I think he is past that... and wants the job. The guy was on campus Wednesday night. I really think he will be offered the job today.

Since he was in the hunt before pulling his name for the monroe job last year (allegedly due to their lack of resources) and now he has been in the hunt for this job I would say he wants to be a HC. Not to be argumentative but who says he would be the OC at Florida if Mullen were to go there?

Nobody's saying that he would be, I agree

_ Hudspeth's offenses at UNA averaged more rushing attempts than passing attempts per game, same for MSU's offense this season.

It's the same old spread EVERYBODY runs. It has no resemblence to Leach, Mumme, or Mangino. _

Except he's had more success getting his kids to run it than most do. But I know what you mean. It's not the "Air Raid" offense (mesh, verticals), it's the Rich Rodriguez/Urban Myer shotgun offense.

ESPN broke the news last night, Mullen is not going to Florida or Miami. He has been given a contract extension and raise out of all these coaching rumors. And no, Hudspeth would not have been a candidate for the Miss. State job had Mullen left to take one of the jobs in Florida.
