Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: DrillDeck at none against The Coaches Site's 1. DrillDeck also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). The Coaches Site's advantage is iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
