[CYO Butch]

I have mixed emotions up over the punishment. Clearly, he should not be allowed to coach. Just as clearly, his actions make it hard for any normal parents to entrust their kid to his care, especially in light of the fact that he is a special ed teacher. I do, however, think that firing him from his teaching slot may go a bit far. I guess that I would say ultimately that a 5 day suspension w/o pay from the teaching slot, and termination as coach, would probably be pretty appropriate. Knuckleheads can learn, and losing the $1,300 from the coaching job and a week's pay might prove to be a good learning experience.
