Coaching career
After he graduated from Mississippi College, in 1978 Hurt began his coaching career. After he served as an assistant coach at Clinton High School from 1978 through 1981, Hurt landed his first college assistant position with North Texas for the 1981 season.[1] Between 1981 and 1991, Hurt served as an assistant at Southeast Missouri State, Baylor, Lamar and Rice.[1] In 1992, Hunt joined the staff of the Birmingham Fire of the World League of American Football where he served as defensive line coach for both seasons the team was in existence. After the Fire folded, Hurt accepted an assistant coaching position at Nicholls State before quickly resigning to take the defensive coordinator position at Samford University under former Fire head coach Chan Gailey.[2]
After a single season as defensive coordinator, Hurt was promoted to head coach for the 1994 season after Gailey left to take an assistant coaching position in the National Football League (NFL).[3] Hurt was fired midseason during the 2001 campaign after a 1–4 start.[4] During his eight seasons with the Bulldogs, Hurt led Samford to an overall record of 42–39–1.[5]
From Samford, Hurt returned to serve as head coach at Clinton High School for three years before he became the offensive line coach at Air Force.[6] After two years with the Falcons, Hunt returned to Mississippi to serve as head coach at Center Hill High School from 2007 through 2010 when he resigned to serve as head coach at Northwest Rankin High School.[7] In December 2013 Hurt resigned from Northwest Rankin High School position of head football coach and athletic director after two losing seasons. His successor, Tyler Peterson, was named weeks later. Hurt coached one season with Olive Branch and was later dismissed.[8]
