Jim Dew is an American former football and baseball player and coach. He served as the head football coach at Valley City State University in Valley City, North Dakota from 1974 to 1993. Dew was also the head baseball coach at Valley City State from 1974 to 1991, tallying a mark of 275–323.^[1]

Dew attended Mount Saint Joseph High School in Baltimore. He played four years of football as a quarterback at Mayville State University in Mayville, North Dakota, and also lettered in baseball.

After graduating from Mayville State in 1967, Dew played for three seasons with the Racine Raiders of the Central State Football League. During that time, he was also a teacher at Gifford Junior High School in Racine, Wisconsin.^[2]

Dew was hired in 1970 as an assistant coach in football and baseball at Bemidji State College—now known as Bemidji State University—in Bemidji, Minnesota. He then coached at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse as offensive backfield coach in football and pitching coach in baseball before he was hired as the head football coach at Valley City State in 1974.^[3]
