Why are Coaches so underpaid?

Question

I mean,they're half the reason teams win championships.This just goes to show that brains are really underrated these days.The president makes less than Michael Beasley.

Answer 1

Since when are coaches underpaid?  They make 5-7 millions a year and how is that underpaid?  Do you really believe that president Bush make less then Beasley?  You haven't add up all the incentives a President receive as well as benefits he'll receive after his term.

Answer 4

They're underpaid because they're not the ones playing on the court. The players make team the coaches don't. If you say the word lakers who comes to mind? Kobe. They come up with the plays but it's up to the players to carry it out. Without the players the coaches would be nothing. But I do think they not credited and are underpaid but that's just how things are.
