That's if they do the kids laundry...laziest guys I have seen in the profession are round ball coaches...I have met one or two that try to do it right...guys I'm telling you basketball participation medals are the reason this states is in decline (everyone goes to the playoffs and 1/2 the teams in the state with a "District Championship")...they have control cause they make a lot of money for the OSSAA and OCA...so go ask daddy, the basketball coach at your school, what the plans are in the future...

Actually dip studies show u can take up to 16 days off and not really affect Top in strength, will get super sore after taking that time off , yes, will u lose cardio yes. Top end not really. And like skinny said, whatever the basketball and baseball coaches want will happen. And they don't care cause all their crap is done in June! Some studies. The good news though, is that kids can always run on their own. Kids can run on their own but 97% or more of them wont run at all or if they do it wont be hard enough to get anything out of it that will help your football season...

And the way its written, don't they have to stay away from the track, or is it just when a coach is there?

No but saying the kids are going to run on their own during a dead week is laughable...what is the purpose of a dead week if you are going to ask them to run on their own?

I will tell you this fellas. If you take a job, you better understand the atmosphere of the place you are going to. Every coach thinks they can get the kids out of the gym. They are in there for a reason. It has air conditioning or you don't have to be as physically tough. If I"m a basketball coach, to be fair, I"m gonna push what's best for my program. You can't fault those guys. I had a few basketball parents get mad because I am taking offseason kids to indoor meets. F' em. I'm making my program better. If you are at a place that doesn't allow this, pack up and get out.

I mean basketball is roughly 5 1/2 months long...why do they need the kids in the summer when they have a month and a half preseason...

In small school Oklahoma, I won't disagree. The larger the school, the more stroke football programs have. It is easy for a smaller school football coach to feel second fiddle to BB with all those 6-2 post players preparing for the NBA. U are correct, but the facts are, there are more basketball coaches in Oklahoma than football, their are more administrators that are former baseball and basketball coaches too that do the voting. And it's for whole state not just certain classes. Why, imo, it's because basketball coaches have so much free time to work on their masters. No field maintenance, let's take 8 min to sweep, 1 Load of 20 shirts and shorts, and that's it. Basically August to mid oct off, and then spring break till camp time in June. Oh and did I mention no real maintenance of facilities Let's not forget just how easy the sport is, also. Football coaches are basically admins already with job load. During the season we work 6-7 days a week, late nights, and early mornings. Any of us could coach basketball. I am proof of that my first two years. Easiest thing ever. So more basketball coaches go into admin because they have plenty of time to do it. I know some football coaches do both but I couldn't imagine having all of that on my plate.
