.Rivals_Clint looks back at his preseason predictions on incoming freshmen to see how he did .....
Having grown up the son of a coach and spending a number of years as a college coach myself, the news of beloved's passing really hit home for me. Every coach knows what they are getting into when they sign up for the job, but the toll these jobs take on both the mental and physical wellness of those in the coaching profession seems to only be getting worse as the college football stage gets bigger.
This isn't only about the biggest name coaches either. Coaches at the high school level and lowest levels of college football are putting in insane hours and dedicating their lives to making the school they represent the best it can possibly be. Coaches spend more time in the office than they do at home, they forgo spending time with spouses and children for much of the year, they rarely make it to weddings or big events of loved ones and go months at a time without a day off.
Like all things in the college football world, this needs to start at the top with the NCAA. I don't have all of the answers, but those who are in power need to make coaches' health a priority moving forward. This should start with the recruiting calendar because right now it is out of hand and is only getting worse. I suggest the NCAA make dead periods actually dead, meaning no contact with recruits whatsoever.
I am tired of losing good men because they have dedicated their lives to bettering their players and schools they work for alike.
