Technically they can't coach. During practice they are not supposed to be on the actual playing floor. Many times, they will be sitting at the scores table running the clock or charting during practice. But unlike the coaches, the DoBO's can sit in on open gyms, and work with the athletes year round when the coaches cannot. To help prepare them become a coach, they are very involved in watching film with the assistants coaches and helping with the scouting reports for their opponents.
With that being said, there are some DoBO's that are career DoBO's. This is more common in football when they make more money and typically are less involved in the coaching duties.
