Assistant Coach Salaries

[4skers89]

 

 

 

 

MC, coaches make sh#t tons of $ for other people and they regularly get fired after only a few years. It's not really something to be upset about.

Ehhh, at least they get a buyout if they get fired. I'm a capitalist so I'm all for making as much money for oneself as possible. That being said, 99% of these guys would be gym teachers if not for football and the majority of these guys are dumber than sh**. But hey, GBR!

That is hilarious. Majority of coaches are dumber than poop? Wow! That was quite the educational post. Wish you posted more often with all this wisdom you have instead of just keeping it to yourself. Please share it with the stupid gym teachers and coaches of the world. We don't know any better.

 

 

My point is I don't see a whole lot of coaches with STEM/Finance degrees which open up a ton of employment opportunities. Putting all your eggs in the coaching basket seems like a big risk seeing as that it is a boom or bust industry. People can obviously be successful yet not be intelligent (my opinion) and I commend their ability to get to the top of a hyper competitive space The 99% comment was over the top and in retrospect, a mistake.

 

 

So what do you think about actors? Outside of Hedley Lamar (the actress, not the poster), who developed the concept needed for guided missiles and cell phone technology during WWII, who else is a educated actor?

 

That's Hedy, not Hedley! http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0010021/quotes

Did someone say my name.....

I agree with chimichangas on this. I get that market value is a thing, and I don't bemoan coaches for making as much money as possible, nor do I think it's nonsensical or anything like that...I just wish it was different. In the college game, I wish it was different. The exorbitant amounts of money pave the way for opportunists to take advantage of these kids, or to leave as much collateral damage behind as necessary to win (see Art Briles).

 

Every year it gets harder for me to love college athletics in the same way.

Coaches salary is not the reason college football is shady. It has been that way for a long time, it is just under the microscope a lot more now.

It's certainly part of the reason.
