Spokane Public School administrators declined to renew Ferris High School football coach Jim Sharkey’s coaching contract Tuesday.

Sharkey was accused of exposing himself to players at a leadership camp last summer.

He is being investigated by the school district and the sheriff’s office in Shoshone County, Idaho, where the camp was held.

Sharkey denies the allegations. He’s coached the Ferris Saxons since 2006 and won a state championship in 2010. In 2016, he went 5-5.

At least three football players claimed that while Sharkey was grilling hot dogs and hamburgers at the camp along the Coeur d’Alene River near Cataldo, Idaho, he turned toward them with his exposed penis inside a hot dog bun / Eli Francovich , SR. More here.
