Good Afternoon Cajun Nation,

This morning I met with Coach Mark Hudspeth to discuss the future of our Football program, and I informed him of my decision to move the program in a different direction, relieving him of his head coaching duties. Transitions like this are never easy for anyone involved, and I am extremely grateful for the commitment and service Coach Hudspeth, Tyla and their children have given this community in addition to the improvements made within our Football program over the past seven years. I know Coach Hudspeth will be successful as he moves forward in his career and I know Ragin' Cajuns fans join me in thanking Coach Hudspeth and his family for all they have done for the city of Lafayette, the University of Louisiana, our Athletics Department, and the Football program.
