I would imagine that there would be some sort of reprimand, probably just a warning of some sort, from the OhioHSAA, especially since he discussed it with the media before the OhioHSAA finished up their investigation.
Do I think it should affect the official? Absolutely not
Do I think it will affect the official? I have a feeling, at least for the next couple of years, he'll be "that official," and for that reason alone, he may not see many upper-level playoff games. Maybe some first round stuff, but nothing that the media would get a hold of and say, oh, look this is the same guy that got attacked and got that coach fired (which is what should happen).
