[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ I would add to the above that in almost every state in the country, the highest paid public employee in the state is the head football coach at that state's flagship university. And some people wonder where all the money goes. :D [/quote] If you look into it, you'll find that football programs at most of the flagships are moneymakers. They are not usually a drain on the university finances. [/quote] You are probably right, but still they pay the coaches exorbitantly, esp. considering they are public employees. [/quote] Coaches are paid through athletic foundations, which are funded by athletics revenue and donors. There's a base salary that comes from the general budget, but the big name coaches get their millions from the foundations. Your taxes don't pay Butch's salary. Public school budgets are PUBLIC. You can see the salary of every public school employee in the country. [/quote]
