James Bell Hildebrand[2] was an American football coach. He served as the head football coach at Mississippi A&M (now known as Mississippi State University) for the 1896 season. Hildebrand was hired as the first full-time head coach at the school after the student body raised $300 ($7,894 in 2018 dollars[3]) to hire him.[4] During his one-season tenure, Hildebrand compiled an overall record of zero wins and four losses (0–4).[5][6]
