These are some of the charges filed against Phillip Koons.
The stories I’ve heard are making kids run outside naked, and showing off his dick to show the children “what a real man looks like.” A lot worse, but that tends to stay on private Facebook pages and doesn’t typically get investigated.
The Oklahoma Coaches Hall of Fame considers him a man worth honoring however.
They do have their phone numbers publicly listed if you’d like to share your opinion about this.
In rural Oklahoma - high schools exist to field football teams. You drive into a town and the water tower will say “State Champions ‘92” - their quarterback was on the team, owns the car dealership and consequently owns the town. It’s not about religion necessarily - it’s more that Oklahoma is a set of petty fiefdoms run by terrible men who are okay with anything as long as they can watch the game at a brand new stadium built with bond money.
I can relate. I grew up in Indiana. It’s more of a basketball state, but same vibe.
Fun fact - in the 1920’s, 1 in 3 white people in Indiana were members of the KKK. It was as about a mainstream a thing as being a rotary club member - they even had charity matches against the Knight of Columbus.
My aunt in the 90s said membership in the klan in Atlanta was as prevalent as membership in the boy scouts. I have little reason to doubt her.
