The Jacksonville Dolphins officially announced the hiring of former FGCU standout and Stetson assistant coach Brett Comer during the spring of 2025.

“Brett Comer’s success as a player and coach speaks for itself by winning an ASUN title as a coach and a player,” head coach Jordan Mincy said. “Brett’s leadership while at Stetson helped produce one of the most dynamic and high-scoring teams in the ASUN. Also, his ability to develop game plans, adapt real-time and maximize his players’ strengths is exactly what we need. Brett is a future star in this profession.”

Comer played college ball at Florida Gulf Coast where he was a key member of the Eagles’ squad. He as a two-time All-ASUN selection and finished top-25 all time in NCAA career assists. 

In 2013, Comer was named the Atlantic Sun Tournament MVP during FGCU’s historic run to the NCAA Tournament where Gulf Coast picked up the nickname ‘Dunk City.’ Comer’s 244 assists that year -- helping lead FGCU as the first 15 seed to ever reach the Sweet 16 -- was second all-time in ASUN history.

Comer began coaching at Indiana University of Pennsylvania as a volunteer assistant in 2015. He was then hired as a GA at Dayton in 2017 before returning to the ASUN for the ’22 season with the Hatters.
