have complete control over your staff to hire and fire any one you want?
or due to the teachers Union you can't get rid of coaches?

What does the teachers union have to do with coaching? You aren't firing them from being a teacher are you?
I'm just curious, I coach youth so don't know the ins and outs of teacher-coaches.

Our coaches are under the Union, I can move them around in the program but getting rid of a coach is next to impossible.

I more or less have control over it. However the actual signing off on it goes through our AD. Our contracts are also set by the unions contract, however all coaching contracts are 1 year only. Basically we never fire anyone we just choose not to renew their contracts.

Private school so no union. Just had to let a coach go last week. Had several informal meetings since the season started and one formal sit down. He was still not doing required duties and doing things that I had told him not to. Let him go with 2 games remaining. Told my AD and Headmaster. Done. Anybody looking to teach and coach at a Christian school in South Florida next year?

Michigan is a big union state, but I have power to hire & fire as I choose.

If you have to "get rid" of somebody but have no way to do it. You invent a position on your coaching staff (call it quality control). Get the rest of your staff to suck up what the dead weight coach was doing. Give him all of the things that nobody likes doing.
I have complete control with who comes and goes - which is a big reason nobody has had to leave.
BUT if I were in your position, I'd let that person know (up front) and if he doesn't get the hint, I'd give him duties that would not be very fulfilling.
It's a cheap way to do it but it could work

I pretty much have total control when it comes to football hires. I'm also AD, so that helps. I have had to but heads with the board a time or two...
