Title: AHSAA bans Walker from playoffs, suspends coaches for remainder of year Post by: pmull on September 06, 2013, 11:44:17 AM Both coaches involved are supended for the year. (The Walker coach has resigned.) Walker can not go to the playoffs. Walker was on probation from an incident last year. This was an ugly situation that made our entire state look bad.
Quote The AHSAA handed stiff punishment to Walker and Cullman high schools in response to last week’s on-field coaching brawl, including suspension of the coaches involved for the remainder of the 2013 season. In addition, Walker’s football program has been placed on restrictive probation – meaning the Vikings are barred from the 2013 football playoffs – and each school received a $1,500 fine. Cullman’s football program received one year of non-restrictive probation, meaning the Bearcats can advance to the playoffs. http://highschoolsports.al.com/news/article/-6550949647144420417/ahsaa-bans-walker-from-football-playoffs-suspends-brawling-coaches-for-remainder-of-season-photos/ Title: Re: AHSAA bans Walker from playoffs, suspends coaches for remainder of year Post by: 2Stater on September 06, 2013, 12:35:29 PM Both coaches involved are supended for the year.

Above all sportsmanship should be at the top. Win with class, lose with class.

Title: Re: AHSAA bans Walker from playoffs, suspends coaches for remainder of year Post by: pmull on September 06, 2013, 02:43:56 PM I don't think the penalties are stiff at all. It is about the minimum the AHSAA could do IMO. Walker is lucky they still have a football program. They were on probation from last year for players fighting.

There's an old rumor that has been around for years that in Walker County, you can put $50 on a stump and a name and can get anyone taken care of. ;)

I hope it wasn't PBR ....

A few years ago the rumor was $100. |
