Shawn Elliott (born June 26, 1973) is an American college football coach and former player. He is the head football coach at Georgia State University, a position he has held since the 2017 season. Elliott served as the interim head football coach at the University of South Carolina for the final six games of the 2015 season. He joined the South Carolina Gamecocks football coaching staff in 2010 as the team's running game coordinator under Steve Spurrier. He was later named the co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach. A day after South Carolina head coach Spurrier's resignation, Elliott was elevated to the position of head coach on an interim basis.[1]

He was part of a staff that led the Mountaineers to three straight NCAA Division I Football Championships, from 2005 to 2007.[2] He remained with the team until after the 2009 season, when he joined the staff of South Carolina.

On December 8, 2016, it was announced that Elliott accepted the head coaching position at Georgia State.[3]
