In the short term at least, yes. But considering American schools get most of their funding based on students' academic performance – and low grades means they get defunded and have to cut things like schoolbuses, supplies, and education programs & quality – it's a very short-sighted thing to do for schools which don't have peak student performance (and most schools overpaying coaches and underpaying teachers don't have good student performance). Not to imply that you were saying that this isn't the case
