So it must be something other than football.[/quote]You do know that to get hired as a coach in Texas you have to be a qualified teacher. The coaches on staff are all "qualified" teachers. You must be thinkign about Ohio, Pennsylvania, or Florida where they let anyone coach. Also, a small portion of an assistant coach's salary is for coaching a sport or two sports, depending where you coach. Your tax dollars are going where there supposed to be going.
