What sort of school punishes anyone for lying if they are the one to come forward and admit it? Punish him for any offense he lied about, but not for the original lie. That's crazy.

Geez the kid had not even told his family yet, who wouldn't lie to the coach about it... Hope the coach and school get pulled into line.

Podunk places like this push gay kids into being prey for internet groomers. Probably would not even think about old dudes off the web if he didn't know the town/school was so homophobic.

And this coach is on the school diversity committee??? Surprised this kid or his parents aren't kicking up a shit storm. I have a gay child and know I would go for this coach like a rabid dog.
