I told the WH to report the suspicion to the state and include the coach's comments as well as report it to the AD.
IMO, this isn't anything we have any business being involved in. Whether a man chooses to use tobacco or not is his decision. Whether he's allowed to use it around students is an issue for his employer, not an official in a football game.
