I think there should be some differentiation from player and coach. A player just goes out there to perform their task while the head coach is looked at as the supervisor/leader of men where high character is usually a requirement. Jon Gruden didn't commit a crime or anything but some emails were unearthed that could be considered racist, homophobic and misogynistic. Those emails were made in private years prior when he was working with ESPN and no player or person was directly harmed but he will never be a head coach in the NFL again. Quenneville was involved in a coverup of sexual abuse of a player while serving as an NHL head coach and he's now been afforded another opportunity to coach in the NHL again. I believe in 2nd chances but his 2nd chance should have come in a different league and not by the same league that employed him when he was part of a coverup.
