Billy Dicken is in his second year with Wolfpack football and his first as the program’s defensive quality control coach. He spent the 2018 campaign as a volunteer assistant coach.
Dicken joined the Wolfpack after a stint at Illinois State, where he served as wide receivers coach from 2014-15 years and was the co-offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach in 2016 and ’17.
In 2015, he coached third-team All-American Anthony Warrum, a Missouri Valley Football Conference first-team pick at wide receiver. Warrum set an Illinois State single-season record and led the MVFC with 15 receiving touchdowns and ranked second in the league with 1,290 yards on 58 receptions. His stats also ranked him No. 2 in receiving touchdowns (15) and yards per reception (22.2), No. 4 in receiving yards (1,290) and No. 8 in receiving yards per game (99.2) among all receivers in FCS football.
In 2014, ISU ranked No. 2 in the country in passing yards per completion (15.51) and No. 4 in team passing efficiency with a mark of 155.58. Senior wideouts Cameron Meredith and Lechein Neblett were a big part of that success, as the duo became the first teammates in school history to both haul in over 1,000 receiving yards in a season.
From 2010-13, Dicken served as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Illinois Wesleyan. In 2013, he helped the Titans advance to the NCAA Division III playoffs for the third time in five seasons and a No. 14 national ranking.
He spent the 2009 season as the wide receivers coach at Division II Eastern New Mexico in 2009, when the Greyhounds were the national leader with 448 passing yards per game. He was also on the Illinois Wesleyan staff from 2002-08.
Dicken played quarterback for Purdue, Dicken led the Big Ten Conference in pass attempts (407), completions (224), passing yards (3,136) and passing touchdowns (21) on his way to being named a First Team All-Big Ten selection by the coaches as a senior.
He was also named the “Outstanding Offensive Player” in the Alamo Bowl, throwing for three touchdowns and 325 yards.
After his career at Purdue, Dicken went on to play for several Arena Football League teams including the Columbus Destroyers, New Orleans VooDoo, Detroit Fury, Chicago Rush and Quad City Steamwheelers as well as the Hamilton Tiger Cats of the Canadian Football League.
A 2008 graduate of Illinois State, Dicken earned a master’s degree from Eastern New Mexico in Sports Administration in 2012.
He and his wife Jessica have a daughter: Ashlyn.
