THE OFFICIAL HOME OF McNEESE ATHLETICS

Landon Hoefer, a 2008 graduate of Texas Tech, is in his fourth season with McNeese and second as the offensive coordinator, a position he was promoted to when Lance Guidry was named head coach in December 2015. Hoefer also serves as the team's quarterback coach.

Hoefer joined the Cowboys in the summer of 2014 after spending a year at Stephen F. Austin in the same capacity where he also coordinated the passing game.

In three seasons with the Cowboys, McNeese quarterbacks have completed over 50 percent of their passes and thrown for 30 total touchdowns. In addition, quarterback Daniel Sams became the first McNeese QB to rush for 100 yards or more in a season four times (2015) while setting a career record with seven 100-yard rushing games.

In 2015 the Cowboys ranked third in the Southland Conference in scoring offense with 30.2 points per game scored while Sams ranked second individually in total offense with 236.4 yards gained per game.

At SFA, he coached the Lumberjacks to a No. 1 national ranking in passing offense (389 ypg), No. 2 national ranking in total offense (571.6 ypg), and a No. 2 ranking in offensive first downs (321).  The Lumberjacks also ranked 11th in the nation in scoring offense with 38.5 points per game, and was 43rd in rushing with 182.6 ypg.

He guided quarterback Brady Attaway to becoming the Southland Conference’s record holder for passing yards in a game when he threw for 662 against Prairie View.  For the season, Attaway threw for 4,268 yards on 349 of 584 passing, and tossed 32 touchdowns.

During the 2012 season, Hoefer worked with West Virginia head coach Dana Holgorsen to produce one of the most lethal passing games at the NCAA FBS level.

The Mountaineers finished the 2012 campaign ranked 10th nationally in total and passing offense. Hoefer worked with both the quarterbacks and receivers in Morgantown, helping produce two 1,000-yard wide outs last season.

Prior to his stop at WVU, Hoefer spent two seasons in Greenville, N.C., working with the East Carolina offense. Hoefer experienced similar success in Greenville, producing two 1,000-yard receivers, and working with a quarterback who finished the season completing 393 passes for 3,967 yards and 37 touchdowns (Dominique Davis). The Pirates finished 2010 ranked eight nationally in passing and 10th in total offense.

Before making the switch to the offensive side of the ball, Hoefer spent one season assisting the secondary at Memphis.

A three-year letterwinner at Texas Tech, Hoefer played in four-straight bowl games, including two Cotton Bowls, the 2006 Insight.com Bowl, and the 2007 Gator Bowl. 
He received his bachelor’s degree from Texas Tech in 2008, and has completed work toward a master’s degree.
