"Players love & respect him. His records speaks volumes,"

"Nick Dotson is a blue chip coach in every respect. In the last 7 years he has built a program that is dominated the Sun Conference in Florida in both the men's and women's track and field. He's done this by bringing together young men and women who are academically sound, can be developed as athletes, are coachable and respectful all around. He knows the sport inside and out and continually develops the person as well as the talent. He's developed a knowledgeable staff in order to extend his reach as well. I would have no reservations at all recommending an athlete to be part of one of his programs. "

"Coach Dodson cares about his athletes and genuinely wants them to perform their best on the field and in the classroom as he consistently preaches the importance of both. He won’t hold your hand to make sure that happens (because he shouldn’t have to, you as the STUDENT-athlete should want that), but will guide you in the right direction to be successful in both areas. He’ll also show his athletes tough love and call you out on things that you aren’t taking care of in the right way (again, it’s because he wants the best for his athletes). He’s a players coach as you can see his competitive spirit light up on competition days, which every athlete should want in a coach. In all, I was a transfer student, had a great experience in my short time at Southeastern, and wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to be my head coach during that time. "
