Tommy now spends his time pouring into young men around him

Huh.

That would be: Texas

That's specifically from the Jeezus-y homeschool-centric baseball academy and travel team that actually employees him. One district, Southlake Carroll (they of the "rich racists" NBCNews podcast and just generally obnoxious try-hards), had him listed as an authorized outside coach. So not exactly from a school, but absolutely and horrifically education-adjacent.

No worries though! There was also the nominally public charter school in San Angelo, which still has their Christ-centered mission on their about page from when they were a creepy Christian private school, who just had to fire the football staff and half the adminsitration for giving a bunch of kids rhabdo and then covering it up. Their sister school had to fire all the kindergarten(!) teachers because they marched misbehaving children around the room so the other kids could shout "shame!" and point.

I say that successful athletes get a pass all the time. People still praise Kobe despite being a rapist.

Donald Trump hired a sex offender last year, for a position that deals with kids also. I just don't suspect less from the US.

God, this culture is so tricky. How do I not fuck with kids?

I bet they'll sign it. Never forget that this is what they are inside.

A homeschool association… although the article said he was also worked I think past tense with a school district.

It wasn't the school, it was The Texas Home Educators Sports Association. I wouldn't expect anything else from home education groups.
