Coaching seems more difficult in my experience.
In today's social media age, anyone can attempt to be a journalist - those who are good will potentially landing careers in the field while those who are not are free continue as freelance writers but most likely supplement with real jobs. In HS and collegiate sports, you see students popping up on Twitter all the time covering their teams because of their contacts and proximity to the information.
In coaching, you need 1 of 2 things - proven track record of being a good coach.....which usually starts after many years grinding at the HS level......or knowing people in the business (former player, family member of coach/player, etc). Sports in general at the collegiate and pro level is a very difficult business to break into without knowing someone. Take it from somebody who has tried unsuccessfully.
Nope. Get yourself a big a*** binder, call it your 300 page blueprint and find some idiot to hire you as HC of historic D 1 university. You might have to find one about to get hammered by NCAA and pretend you don’t know about it.
Has anybody ever seen this thing?
What's in it? Is it in English,or hieroglyphics?
Someday it will be found hidden away in an Egyptian cave by a lonely goat herder, written on papyrus, and confused by its meaning, scholars will call it the Gnostic Gospels.
It will be displayed under glass for years at the British Museum and many will pass by, looking at it with wonder and in awe. Still, the world's most renowned scholars of ancient wisdom will make no sense of it...until finally a HS football coach in a small town in Pennsylvania will translate it...and still the great scholars will be dumbfounded.
