1. Football coaches "salaries" are a combination of an AD + coaching stipend. Their stipend is NOT 60k. There might be an exception here and there, but that is definitely not the norm.

2. I think the safety equipment is a good thing with the shinguards. Schools should provide those. They provide pads for football, catchers equipment for baseball/softball, etc. Please don't provide cups. If you do, DON'T reissue them. Same with mouthguards.

3. Yes...football has to bring in the money for other sports. I disagree with the buying of cleats for the players and tire of hearing the argument that they can't afford the cleats. There are some soccer players that don't have much money either.
