This is for anyone who has information or thoughts on both levels.
First, I would like to say this is my first post, and I would like to give a little background information about myself. I'm 19 years old, and since as early as I can remember I have wanted to be a football coach. I played 4 years of Texas 5A football with cerebral palsy, and in my final year in the 3rd game I had a season ending injury. Instead of dwelling on it, because I knew it was a freak accident, I took that opportunity to help my team. I watched film with my coaches, and went to practice/games as a coach(helping with technique/motivating them). Now,I attend a D1AA univ. in Texas. and starting next fall I am planning on being a equipment manager to get my foot in the door. All throughout high school I wanted to be a college coach, but lately I have been thinking about how much I enjoyed teaching the underclassman and helping with the clipboard during varsity games.
My question is what are the pros and cons of each profession? Also, how hard is it to switch from one to the other?
