It even specifies that he has the right of "free exercise" of his religion.  He does not have the right to provide consequences if others don't accept his faith or have other religious beliefs. There is no record of him doing that.

I have very different views on LGBT issues, but he is entitled to advocate for his beliefs, as misguided as they are.

So the question is, can he be an effective running backs coach at YSU?  Based on the info at hand, the answer is yes.

Excellent post.

For everyone else that thinks this is a problem.
You are just as misguided as the national news which had the top story about ball inflation of the NFL and had the 3rd storyline that fact that the government in Yemen has collapsed.   Unbelievable.   Ron Burgundy is running the national news because all of the wrong things are emphasized. 

If you seriously believe a Christian football coach is going to cause problems then your thought process is misguided.  First of all most Christians that are as devout as he is tend to do a lot for the poor in the community.   Secondly many of the kids that are coming from broken families do not always make the best decisions and a guy like this helps them with their moral compass.  If you  were part of the military you would understand this better if the explanation I'm using doesn't make sense.  Truly living in a world that I struggle to understand.

Yep....who cares what he believes. His resume speaks for itself.

Edit:

This is assuming he doesn't preach on campus like a lot are saying. If he does, fire his ass there's no place for that at a state school.
