Well that just isn't correct. Most of the 'dynasties' here in Texas are in high-wealth areas where the main demographic is the white family. South Lake Carroll, Katy, Allen, Austin Westlake, Brock, Aledo to name a few. These aren't schools where they're underfunded trying to get their kids to pass. These are schools where the parents are likely hauling in more than $300K a year and have prioritized education from a young age.
What does any of that have to do with what you quoted. I don't care if the school is underfunded or if the parents make $300k, a kid is a kid and they don't want to be in class.

An average coach can bring in $175,000 to his school. On the extreme end, they can bring in $350,000 in one game. (which rarely happens)

Look, I went to a high school where football was everything in the suburbs and everyone's parents had a good job. All I'm saying is, is that my parents and the about 300+ other parents of my graduating class didn't mind approving higher taxes or electing athletic minded school board members in high school because paying the head coach twice what any other teacher was getting didn't effect anyone getting into college.
