Schubert Reilley Dyche (February 11, 1893 – October 19, 1982) was an American college football and college basketball coach and athletics administrator, all at Montana State University, from the 1920s through 1940s. In football, he compiled a record of 36–53–7, and led his team to one conference championship during the 1938 season. In basketball, he recorded a 110–93 record. His 1928–29 Bobcats team finished the season with a 36–2 record, was retroactively named the national champion by the Helms Athletic Foundation, and was retroactively listed as the top team of the season by the Premo-Porretta Power Poll. That squad is considered to be one of the greatest college teams in the first half of the 20th century.
Dyche was born in Topeka, Kansas and grew up in southern Colorado. He attended the University of Colorado before moving to Montana in 1923, where he received a bachelor's degree from Montana State in 1923. Dyche also taught in the physical education department at Montana State and was a part-time coach for the baseball team. After retiring in 1961, he moved to France and then Scotland. He died on October 19, 1982, in Scotland.
