Coach Hines
Coach Sandoval "Sandy" Hines (Keegan-Michael Key) is a short-tempered, energetic high school gym teacher, who works at a Catholic school called St. Francis High. Hines easily becomes upset by inappropriate behavior from mostly-unseen students during school assemblies, threatening them with death or severe bodily harm in response. Many of his threats involve infrequently-named bodily organs, such as the sigmoid colon and the duodenum. Principal Lankenstein (Ike Barinholtz), who is the principal of St. Francis High, appears to dislike Hines because he always interrupts Lankenstein's speeches during school events for the purpose of correcting disruptive students, though Hines's corrections are frequently more disruptive than the students themselves. Despite acting mean and tough, Hines is revealed to be a sensitive, caring man in some sketches. Two of Hines' foils are Yamanashi (Bobby Lee) and Jeff Deshazer (Ike Barinholtz), both of whom are students at St. Francis. It is revealed in his final appearance that his last name is really Heinz, and he is the heir to the Heinz ketchup fortune.

Famous quotes containing the word coach:
“The woman ... turned her melancholy tone into a scolding one. She was not very young, and the wrinkles in her face were filled with drops of water which had fallen from her eyes, which, with the yellowness of her complexion, made a figure not unlike a field in the decline of the year, when the harvest is gathered in and a smart shower of rain has filled the furrows with water. Her voice was so shrill that they all jumped into the coach as fast as they could and drove from the door.”
—Sarah Fielding (1710–1768)
