From the Title IX blog -- the writers point out another reason why women might not be be drawn to the coaching profession: money.

Some of you may have seen the recent American Association of University Women's report on the pay gap. According to the report, one year out of college, women earn 80% of what men make. Drops to 69% after ten years.

EBuz links to the student newspaper at Ball State that did a little salary comparson between coaches. Male head coaches avg: $121,752. Female head coaches: $81,195. Male assistants: $63,306. Female assistants: $33,073. (not sure how years of service can be factored in, but even so, it's rather significant.)
