DC accepts HS head wrestling coach job & will donate his salary to the assistant coaches.
I was rooting for Team Stipe, but this is some selfless shit. Way to go & give back!

Better to help some poor than donating to coaches.
How do you know those 2 asst. coaches don't live below the poverty line? Bay Area is expensive as fuck & they could be paid only part time.

If he can help 2 assistant coaches make ends meet & live more comfortably, he's giving to the sport and also to 2 individuals he knows personally. Give the man credit where it's due.

It is a true shame that his career has been so linked/tainted by a drug addict cheat. Daniel should be considered in the GOAT picture but he is not because the cheat fucked him.

Most coaches aren't exactly well off.. trust me. I made 800 a season as an assistant.. that's about 50 a week if that..i was paid in the form of my wrestlers performing well and being good kids.. coaches deserve paid well if they are worth a shit.

DC is a true champion and gentlemen. People that root for someone like Jones over this guy need to do some self reflection.

I can only imagine what sort of places these coaches live in if they're not on $150,000 plus around here.

He should be praised for furthering the sport, not ridiculed for it.

Fuck outta here with that shit. I don't root for fighters based on how much charity they give, and I certainly wouldn't root for DC over Jon Jones based on a gesture made public a day after he said he wanted to fight him again

Very nice gesture by DC. He seems like a good dude. I’m sure the money wasn’t a motivator anyway. As someone said, the pay probably isn’t shit. Maybe a couple grand per year? These kids will all be more motivated to work harder and be better human beings by being involved with DC.

Now that I understand it a bit better, this is exactly right........and that salary isn’t likely to be $150,000 but every little helps
