This league has just begun! Because this is a new league, it will be a few days before the allocation draft begins (the countdown timer above shows when the first pick will fire). This is a great time to get a team as you will be able to build it from scratch! If you don't want to wait for the draft, though, check to see if there is a team in an established league that you can take over.

NOTE: As of the last sim, this league was under the minimum 20% capacity. Invite your friends to join MyFootballNow to keep this league alive! Then send them to this league to become the owner of a team! The league will expire at 8/01/2025 8:00 am.

You should be able to make an offer to any unemployed coach at any time, in what way is it not letting you? Possible reasons are that the coach is not unemployed, or if the coach is on your team - or on another team and you're in the early free agency stages where you can poach another team's coach - you are not offering a promotion, or the coach signed his current contract in the current season.

you can only offer a promotions to others team coach during the early stages of free agency. Other than that, you need to sign an unemployed coach only

I believe that is too late to steal coaches from other teams. You can only do that during early free agency (before the draft). Once the draft starts, you are left to promote your own coaches or look to free agents.

Are the coaches salaries part of the cap number? If not, where do I find what is available to sign coaches?

No, it is a separate pool. You see what you have available when you offer a coach a contract.
