First off, if this is in the wrong section my apologies.

So i am currently working on finishing my bachelors degree. I intend on teaching and coaching after graduation, ill be 28. My question is this. How hard is it to start coaching if you didnt play football? I know some people say if you didnt play high school football then you are not part of the fraternity and you don't belong. I started working in student ministry and through that I fell in love with high school football. Over the past few years I have quietly lurked and gathered as much information as I can. I know i'm a teachable person and learn quickly. So is it unrealistic for me to think coaching football is an option? Should I stick to basketball. Thanks for any help or advice, txdlftw

edit: My degree with be in mathematics, if that matters.
