The continuing revolving door among high school coaches of major high school football programs in southeastern Louisiana slammed itself Tuesday not only on Southern Lab coach Marcus Randall, but the entire Kittens community.

The Louisiana High School Athletic Association announced late Tuesday afternoon Southern Lab was ordered to forfeit its Division IV state championships from the past two seasons and were banned from the next two postseasons after serious recruiting violations were exposed.

In addition, Randall was suspended for the entire 2017 season for his alleged participation. Randall, who was a quarterback at LSU from 2001 to 2004 and tossed the "Bluegrass Miracle" pass to Devery Henderson in 2002, has been fired, according to several media outlets.
