Why is Rickey Branch so unheard of?
I assume you mean Branch Rickey and he is very much still a part of today's game of baseball even though he has been dead for 42 years. Rickey was the first executive to have a farm system for his team and helped to integrate MLB by signing Jackie Robinson to a contract. Maybe part of the reason is today's youth is not as interested in baseball history as the youth of an earlier time was.

Can a college assistant coach coach a high school JV team?
No (maybe yes), unless the person that wants to coach both, a college and high school team, gets special permission from the college. Which is very unlikely. Colleges have the coach sign a contract stating that the coach cannot coach for any other team. The only possibility of coaching both depends on the schools, the sport coached, schedules, and what the coaching position is. If the coach is an assistant coach for both the JV and college FOOTBALL teams, it would make it easier. JV teams play mostly on Thursday nights and also dress for the varsity game Friday night. College football teams play mostly on Saturdays. The coach would have to dedicate his time to the college and that means the coach might miss practices and/or games of the high school team. If that is okay with the high school and the coach tells the college and they ALSO are okay with it then coaching both will work. Do not try and hide it from the college, if they find out the coach is coaching two teams, the coach can be suspended or even fired.. Basically, if a person wants to coach two teams, the coach must talk to both teams and try to work something out. There are a lot of different possibilities of how this can turn out, so there is not a for sure yes or no answer.SHORT ANSWER: It depends on his contact with the college.

The three branches of government are like a football team because...?
The three branches of the United States government is sort of like a football team for this fact. The Executive Branch, consisting of the President, Vice President and the Cabinet, are like the Coach. They make the calls. The Legislative Branch is like the Quarterback, they listen to the "coach" and pass the calls on to the rest of the team. Then we have the Judicial Branch, which is the rest of the team. These are the ones who make the calls happen.
How do you write a short proposal asking approval from college sports committee to start a new football team?
Certain questions would have to be answered. Why does the college need a new football team? How many people do you know who would like to become members of such a team? Who is going to pay for the football uniforms? Would you expect to be able to compete with other college football teams? Have you chosen a name for the team? Who would be the coach of the new team? Who will pay the coach's salary?
