Isn't that going a little far? Not defending the guy, it's gross and super inappropriate. But a simple kiss is hardly sexual. Basically every child ever is kissed against their will by older relatives and nobody bats an eye.
Fire the guy, ban him from football for life, but does he need to be arrested? He's not going around groping strangers. He just apparently does gross, stupid shit when he's excited.
Well, let's see how exactly it is that you feel when a man in a position of authority over you grabs you by the head and kisses you against your will. And I will have you know that neither of my children have ever been made to accept affection that they did not want because I learned from my upbringing, I didn't just parrot it.
I was a Catholic altar boy. I assure you, I know the feeling.
Again, it's gross and inappropriate, not sexual assault.
Yes it is.
