Marcus David Satterfield (born April 9, 1976) is an American football coach and former player. He is the current head coach of Tennessee Tech University, having been named to the position in early 2016. He served as the offensive coordinator for Temple University from 2013 through 2015, and previously worked as offensive coordinator for Chattanooga (2009–2012) and the University of Tennessee at Martin (2006–2008). He was an assistant coach at Richmond during the 2004 season and Western Carolina in 2005. He played college football at East Tennessee State University.
Satterfield was raised in Greenback, Tennessee, the son of Bill and Dora Jane Satterfield. His father, Bill Satterfield, has coached high school football since the early 1970s, including 24 years at Greenback, where he won a state championship in 1987. Marcus played for Greenback in the early 1990s. He initially lined up at wide receiver, but switched to quarterback during his senior season in 1993, when he led the Cherokees to a 10–3 record and a trip to the state quarterfinals.
Satterfield played wide receiver and punter at East Tennessee State University from 1995 to 1998. He helped the Bucs reach the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs in 1996. He finished his career at East Tennessee State with 124 catches and 11 touchdowns. He graduated with a B.A. in history in 1999.
Satterfield worked as a graduate coach for the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football staff from 1999 to 2000. He served as the Mocs' wide receivers coach for the 2001 season. In 2002, he joined the Tennessee Volunteers football staff as a graduate assistant, spending two seasons under the tutelage of offensive coordinator Randy Sanders. After leaving UT, he spent one season coaching wide receivers at Richmond (2004), and one season coaching the same position at Western Carolina (2005).
