According to the details in Fury, the Kanima was responding to Matt's intense hatred of Coach Lahey before they "met". Matt saw the coach at Kate Argent's funeral and that dredged up all his childhood trauma. The kanima, seeking a master, keyed in on those intense feelings and carried out its primary mission to punish. So it killed the coach.
