Lance Guidry (born March 25, 1971) is an American football coach and former player. He currently serves as the head football coach at McNeese State University, a position he assumed before the 2016 season. Guidry served as the interim head football coach at Miami University for one game in 2010 and at Western Kentucky University for one game in 2012. He played college football as a defensive back at McNeese State from 1990 to 1993. He was a four-year starter and was a two-time All-Conference selection.
Coaching career
Miami (OH)
Coach Guidry served as defensive backs coach for Miami during its 2010 MAC Championship season. That same season Miami orchestrated the largest turnaround in the history of college football going 10-4 after winning just one game (1-11) the year before. At the end of the season, head coach Mike Haywood left the team prior to the 2011 Go-Daddy.com Bowl. Coach Guidry served as Interim Head Coach for the bowl game leading the Redhawks to a 35–21 victory over Middle Tennessee.
Western Kentucky
After the Go-Daddy.com Bowl victory, Coach Guidry became defensive coordinator for Western Kentucky University. By his second season (2012), Coach Guidry's defense was #1 in the Sun Belt Conference and 26th Nationally. That year Western Kentucky earned its first-ever bowl invite (Little Caesar's Bowl) since its transition to the FBS Level. Head Coach Willie Taggart left prior to the Little Caesar's Bowl, and once again Coach Guidry was tabbed as the Interim Head Coach for the bowl game, where the Hilltoppers lost a tight game to Central Michigan in the waning minutes of the 4th quarter (24–21).
McNeese State
In 2013, Lance Guidry returned to his alma mater to become the defensive coordinator for the Cowboys. Coach Guidry's presence was immediately felt as McNeese won 10 games for the first time six years and made the FCS playoffs for the first time in four years. In his third season, Coach Guidry's defense ranked 12th nationally in total defense, 3rd in scoring defense and 4th in rushing defense - leading the way for McNeese's perfect regular season (10–0) and 2015 Southland Conference Championship.
After the 2015 season, head coach Matt Viator left McNeese to become head coach at Louisiana-Monroe and Coach Guidry was named as the 15th head coach in McNeese State history.
