Lincoln High School, Lincoln Alabama, Head Coach Ken Howard had a heart attack right before half time on the field. He passed away before reaching the hospital. These kids need alot of prayers and thoughts. He was 48.

Wow high school football is starting out bad so far this year. First the young man who passed away from Sullivan South now this. My thoughts and prayers will remain with both families and so sorry for their loss.

You have my prayers!

not meaning to hijack your thread, but i remember a very sad article in a Sports Illustrated magazine about a beloved coach that was shot and killed by his own student. It turns out this coach actually coached 4-5 current NFL players. Does anyone remember this article and what it was called?

And the year before, the town went through a tornado...you talk about a tough couple years...:cray:

This is the community where the head coach was shot and killed at summer weightlifting by a former player in front of several players. Well-respected coach that had 4 former players in the NFL. The team actually played their season opener on ESPN Friday night as a tribute.

A high school ref died on the field in Dothan tonight. Bad time to be involved in high school football.

That's horrible to hear. Lincoln is on I-20 between B'ham and Atlanta. I drive through it a lot. My thoughts and prayers are with the families and players.
