[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in a school and I’d put our football coaches up against anyone in any school for what they do for our kids.  No one works longer hours for less for 100s of kids than that group of guys.  If the rest of our faculty gave 25% of the time and energy that those coaches do for our students we’d have a lot more students that would be on the right track.  Don’t get me wrong, they want to win, but they way they go about getting kids to buy in sets the kids up for success.[/quote]

At my kids large FCPS HS I saw this too - these guys really do put in the time with these kids.  And yes they want to win, but they also seem to care that the guys suceed.[/quote]

I agree.  I was really against football, but caved.  I've been very pleased with the football coaches and teammates.  The coaches have literally changed my son's habits for the better around punctuality, discipline, commitment, friendship, work ethic, etc.  The football coaches are probably his best nonrelative male role molels in his life.  Football also gave him a social group he didn't have before, and most of the kids are good friends to him. [/quote]
