This might have been true at my school too! We were also a very small, rural school so it's not like they could pay people to be coaches and teachers. The teachers might have gotten a stipend to be a coach but I'm doubting it was enough to write home about. Just another thing that sticks out about that government class, him being called Coach.

Teachers being repurposed as coaches makes more sense than coaches being repurposed as government teachers. I hope the former is more common. My experience was the latter, at least in that my teacher was 100% focused on sports and seemed to hate the academic part.
