As a coach, a career move, want to get some of you coaches opinion's on "Coaching Jobs" at Private vs Public Schools(Head Coaching). What are advantages and disadvantages/similarities and differences for both of these types of jobs?

Retirement and insurance, enrollment
Private more than likely some type of 401k IF they offer, And you might have to get your own insurance they Might NOT offer any And some of its Christian based will automatically take your tithings out , So u might not bring home what u think u will Also selective enrollment

This is my first year in private and I hate it. I will seriously cut my wrist if I don't find something public this next year. Don't do it! I went private because I had to get out of where I was at, there was some stuff going on there that didn't sit well with me so I hit the road. My buddy (the OC at past school) got the HC job at this private school in Tyler. As far as pay I do get payed more, quickly found out that money isn't worth it. Retirement is a 401K, they match up to 15%. They pay most of insurance. They constantly want you to give to "their fund", if you don't they will hound you through calls and e-mails. The parents are completely nuts, these parents actually believe their kids are D1's. The coaching is sub-par, except from guys that came from public schools. The D-line coach asks me mid-practice what a 5 technique was.... FML. Kids for the most part are just like any other kids, they just got tons of money. I miss coaching kids that things aren't just given to to them. I've had a really hard time adjusting to the new environment and don't plan on giving it another try. That's just my opinion, take it for what it's worth.
PS: we don't even have an athletic period because they feel that athletics isn't important (not what I was told ini interview)... don't know how long my buddy (the HC) will last either.

stud doesn't have any experience with privates....but has seen a few guys go that route....they're all back in the public before too long.... stud knew a kid that was "coaching" at a private school while he was still in college....something about that just screamed "you don't have to know jack to coach here" to stud.... Can't get back to public fast enough... and yes "you don't have to know jack" is a true statement. It is the most frustrating thing in the world to have to explain dline techniques to the dam dline "coach". We fired 2 coaches during 2-a-days, one felt like it was a show up when you feel like it job and the other one I told if he showed up again I'd beat his arse (he played at Austin College, how dare I speak to him that way)... that is a "Wig-worthy story"
