Louisiana-Monroe hiring SJ Tuohy of The Blind…
SJ Tuohy, whose character was portrayed by Jae Head in “The Blind Side” as the son of Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, is predicted to be employed by Louisiana-Monroe as its next athletic director, according a number of reviews.
Tuohy, 32, presently works at Oral Roberts as its deputy athletic director of development.
Prior to Oral Roberts, Tuohy also labored as govt director of The Kingdom NIL at UCF, the affiliate athletic director and soccer chief of workers for the Knights, assistant athletics director and director of soccer operations at Liberty and the affiliate director of soccer operations and participant personnel at Arkansas, according to his bio web page.

In “The Blind Side,” which was based on the e-book by Michael Lewis, a younger Tuohy’s relationship with former NFL offensive lineman Michael Oher turned half of the story about Oher’s path to faculty.
Oher, who spent eight years in the NFL across stints for the Ravens, Titans and Panthers, filed a lawsuit against Tuohy’s mother and father in 2023 alleging that they never legally adopted him and that they used a conservatorship — which gave the Tuohys the authority to make choices on behalf of Oher — to take proceeds from the movie from him.

The conservatorship — which didn’t permit Oher to make medical choices or signal contracts on his own, according to NPR — was terminated in September 2023.
“The lie of Michael’s adoption is one upon which Co-Conservators Leigh Anne Tuohy and Sean Tuohy have enriched themselves at the expense of their Ward, the undersigned Michael Oher,” Oher’s submitting acknowledged, according to an ESPN story at the time of the lawsuit. “Michael Oher discovered this lie to his chagrin and embarrassment in February of 2023, when he learned that the Conservatorship to which he consented on the basis that doing so would make him a member of the Tuohy family, in fact provided him no familial relationship with the Tuohys.”
In a submitting at the time, the Tuohy household “vehemently denied” the allegations, and it said that “respondents stand ready, willing, and able to terminate the conservatorship by consent at any time,” according to an ESPN story at the time.
