While it might have been stupid, since he could have caught something from the kid, it's not all that unusual as far as human behavior. We lick our OWN wounds when cut. Why do you suppose we do that?

Speak for yourself. I knew from an early age that there was a lot of bacteria in my mouth that could wreak havoc if it got in my bloodstream. As such, when I first heard that expression I thought it was rather weird.

Animals might lick wounds but people? Since when to people *literally* lick their wounds? Our mouths are festering with bacteria and why it's highly risky to have a human bite that draws blood. Animals licking is to keep a wound area clean but their design is not that of a human.
This coach is either felony stupid, demented or simply perverse and should be tested for all manner of communicable diseases and fired.

Sorry, I have a sneaking suspicion that this coach/science teacher has a bigger problem than wound licking and would pull my son off any team this guy was coaching in a heartbeat........Furthermore, I would demand a full investigation into his background to find out what other kinds of weird stuff he may have been accused of doing with young males........

I noticed dogs did this. Then I decided to do it on a scratch I got. I only licked 1/2 to see what would happen.
The half I licked healed in about 1/2 the time of the the unlicked portion.
I think this is ok to do. IMHO.

WE?!.....
I use peroxide followed by cool water. Then apply whatever sort of dressing the wound requires.
Perhaps this coach studied 1st aid at Neverland Ranch?
