I'm a retired youth coach and maybe too old to understand why anyone who coaches or has contact with young people would have a photo exist anywhere that might surface or do this sort of damage and embarrassment, not to the jerk himself, but to the kids he coached.
In today's IPhone world it's understandable that kids or young adults make stupid decisions that may result in public embarrassment, it's never ever understandable or excusable when it's a coach or adult supervisor who does what even his teen charges might occasionally have enough sense not to do.
He should never again be in a position of influence with minors.
If I sound pissed off, it's because I am. When I was coaching (not so long ago) the as sholes I had to deal with were either out of control parents or cutthroat coaches with no concept of sportsmanship; not the predilections of other coaches.
