Excerpts from "Football Coach's Prayer Case Has First Amendment Implications"

The question: was Kennedy acting on behalf of himself or the public school, aka the government? 

Eric Rassbach is the Executive Director of the Religious Liberty Clinic at Pepperdine University.   

"Was he really on the clock or not, so to speak? Was he working for the school district at that time?" Rassbach said. 

Even if the prayer was private, was it coercive for students?  

"The court was very clear that coercion is very much something that we should be concerned about. But it said that the record in this case of the facts in this case meant that there wasn't actually any coercion," Rassbach said.
