The coach is overpaid, not corrupt. The police are corrupt. There is a difference.

That is literally the going rate of a coach for that level of play. Or for a college that wants to elevate their play. Many colleges pay outrageous coach salaries. You can blame the investments in college athletics for the ridiculous salaries. Consumers are driving that, not corruption.

I am much much much more concerned with corruption in the police than I am a basketball team. Since police actually matter and basketball does not. A cop getting cheating $50k is much more dis-concerning to me than someone who is overpaid. That is the difference here.
