The head coach of the Holmdel High School football team, Joe O'Connor, has resigned along with all nine assistant coaches ...

Nine ass't coaches? I know of some good college football programs that don't have nine ass't coaches ... and this is a H.S. team?!

I know of some good college football programs that don't have nine ass't coaches

And they're probably not very competitive.

Nine in only three each for varsity, JV and freshman teams.

And we wonder why our property taxes are sky high here in NJ.

At one point our district had far more administrators per pupil than all the rest of the surrounding communities.

Some may be volunteers. I had 3 co-workers that volunteered to be assistant coaches for a local high school. No compensation but they loved football.

I our district we field a Varsity, Jr Varsity and a 9th grade team. How many guys would you need for three teams?

I went to a "meet the team's," night about ten years ago, at our local High school. My daughter was on the dance team.

Preseason introduction to the coaches and players representing all the sports teams, drill teams, dance teams, band. Anything competitive. The football program alone had 104 coaches and 500 players involved.

The school itself had well over 4500 students attending at that time. There were well over 10,000 parents in the bleachers for a non game event.

Since the football program has been very successful, Six state championships since 1989, nobody messes with the coaches decisions.
