This site is a FOOTBALL SITE. I asked a football question. FUN n GUN and JUMBOB, I coached football for 32 years in NC. IF this site can run rumors of who is fired or who will be hired, why can't a legitimate question be asked about the status of coaches or former coaches who want to continue serving the students in the NC system? I don't give a rats' $#&&*!! about Obamacare or your personal political slant. It makes no difference at all how you like your doctor, keep your doctor, etc. I only stated a fact, followed by a question.
The law forced about 6 head coaches into permanent retirement. The last retiree to keep on coaching was at Tuscola and his personal option after the law went into effect created a deal where he had to take a personal contract with the system and took a $20,000 cut just to keep coaching. With the shortage of assistants in this state, my question was to get information about the status now that the law has been changed without the mandate. Without the mandate, retirees should be able to return to a more equitable option of part time teaching and/or coaching.
I have been with NCPREPS since Moby Dick was a minnow....going back to newsletters. If a simple helpful question is voodoo because of political insecurity on this site, this will be my last post. Otherwise, I would appreciate anyone who understands the effect of the change on your personal county's position with part time or retiree coaches to respond. Yes. I could ask each of the HR offices in the 106 or so school systems to respond. I thought those already affected might already have the answer.
