Vero Beach Gary Coggins

He's the coach that's in between Livings and Coach J (2006-2010), he went 35-20 in only five seasons and made the playoffs all five seasons, he won the district championship two straight years.Coggins was a run heavy team different from the one you see today but he lead them to 4 straight winning seasons.

Coggins was a decent scheduler because he played Pahokee the State champions two years in a row and played Palm Bay two years in a row too along with wins over South Fork(2008) who made it to the third round of the playoffs and Westwood(2009) who also made it to the third round of the playoffs....

The crazy thing is that they let him go because he couldn't get to the third round of the playoffs, SMH, so I guess that means that coach J shoulda been kicked out along time ago huh

Coggin also was like Livings were he had a stout defense and a wing T offense...the powers that be replaced him because of pressure from the booster club...thought a more watchable offense would bring out more athletes to play football

It did work tho because alot of basketball players who never played football before came out and excelled at it and you saw any of the games when Coggins was coaching

    • When you right you right fam. At the end of the day. Anybody in dade, broward or palm beach know bout Dillard and know we don’t duck no team home or away. We down to line up any day.    but none of that puts points on the score board or guarantee victory. You can be ready and confident all you want, but if your team doesn’t have the personnel to match a national power house who gets in loads of transfers year and year out, 9/10 that score is going to be fairly lopsided.    and as much as I bleed Dillard day and night, and as much as it pains me to say. Dillard is not in Miami central, norland, sta, or chaminades league going into the this upcoming season. Let them beat up on each other.    I believe this is a perfect schedule for Dillard if they’re atleast still an above avg program they should win this district with ease and have no more then 2 loses this year.    if not and they struggle even with this schedule then Dillard as a program is most def going backwards and I would hate that for my Alma mater. 
    • I agree with you on everything you said. Why play these powerhouses and get the butt kicked out of you. Yes you're not running away from good opponents, however what does a 63-0 loss due to the morale of a bunch of young men.
    • Welcome to the new wonderful wild west of high school football in Florida. We need to create a new position at each school. Recruiting coordinator. Because that is the only way to win big in this state now at the highest levels. The haves can turn into have not by losing one cheater coach. 
    • There are zero coaches on campus, every single coach left 
    • There is 1,750 kids in the school. That would be their fault if they can’t field a team of 40-50 players. I know it sucks about the mass exodus. I get it. But even though they won’t be competitive for the time being they should at least have enough varsity players returning, JV kids, and newcomers to field a team.    They should have had an assist at coach resume spring workouts, and maybe got in on a jamboree with lesser teams or held an inter squad scrimmage. But to cancel everything seems a bit erratic
