Independence Day seems an appropriate time to shout out @417helmets. Check them out for legit helmet decals. And awesome hats.

I’ll expand Coach Guz’s post to say if schools truly believe “sports are an extension of the classroom” then we need to hire it as such. Can’t expect teams to perform when schools don’t hire teachers that want to coach. Football is the largest “class” offered in most high schools.
I’m not coaching high school to get rich, but if we want to attract good young coaches into the business, we need to start paying coaches for all the work they are required to do in the summer to have a successful program.
