Troy Wingerter enters his 26th season with Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Football, and his 12th as the director of football operations.
A former Louisiana football standout, Wingerter entered into a new role within the football program in 2011, becoming the director of football operations for then-head coach Mark Hudspeth. Prior to the 2023 season, Wingerter was elevated to Associate AD/Chief of Staff for Football.
Wingerter started his career with the Louisiana Athletics Department in 1997 where he was the tight ends coach as a graduate assistant from 1997-99.
Wingerter coached the defensive ends in 2001 under then-head coach Jerry Baldwin and served in the role of Cajuns’ tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator from 2002-10 for Rickey Bustle.
In 2009, tight end Luke Aubrey led the team in receptions while tight end Ladarius Green topped the team in yards. Green was one of just three underclassmen named to the 2009 Mackey Award Watch List.
In 2010, Green was one of just eight semifinalists for the prestigious Mackey Award, which is given to the nation’s top tight end. He was a first team All-Sun Belt selection, a first team All-Louisiana pick and garnered second team All-America honors by CBSSports.com and fourth team All-America accolades by Phil Steele.
A native of New Orleans, Wingerter was a first-team All-Louisiana selection and an All-South Independent pick as a senior in 1991. He helped guide the Cajuns to three straight winning seasons during his first three years from 1987-89 and was a permanent team captain as a senior.
He was selected as a member of the all-time University of Louisiana football team as compiled by the Lafayette Daily Advertiser.
Wingerter and his wife, Cydra, have two sons, Holden and Aiden.
