Robert Maddox (born June 1954) was the head coach of the Troy State Trojans football team from 1988 through 1990. He had an overall 13-17 record as head coach at Troy.

Early career

Maddox played college football at Troy State University from 1974 through 1977, playing defense under defensive coordinator Chan Gailey. In 1983, Gailey became head coach at Troy State, and hired Maddox as an assistant coach. Maddox rose in subsequent years to become defensive coordinator at Troy, and in 1988 was hired as head football coach at his alma mater. [Matt Winkeljohn, "Troy job was Chan's first big gig", "Atlanta Journal-Constitution", September 13, 2006; "Baseball steps up its minority hires", "Atlanta Journal-Constitution", March 29, 1988.]

Head coach at Troy State

At Troy State, Maddox inherited a team which the previous season had gone 12-1-1, winning the NCAA Division II national football championship. Despite this, in 1988, Troy State had its first losing season since 1982, going 4-6. The following season, the team showed little improvement, finishing with an identical 4-6 record. In 1990, Troy State improved slightly to 5-5, but Maddox resigned following a season-ending 24-23 win over Nicholls State.

High school coaching career

Maddox became head coach at Valley High School in Valley, Alabama in 1991, where he immediately led the Rams to the fourth round of the Alabama High School Athletic Association class 5A playoffs and a 12-2 record. For this, he was named the Alabama High School Football Coach of the Year for class 5A. He remained at Valley until 1999, amassing a 62-46 record and four region championships. In 2000, he reentered the college ranks as an assistant coach at Gardner-Webb University, but returned to Alabama in 2002 as the head coach of the Auburn High School Tigers. At Auburn High, Maddox led the Tigers to three consecutive playoff appearances and won the region title in 2004. After three seasons at Auburn High, Maddox left to become head football coach at Lee-Scott Academy, where he is currently serving as head football coach.
