After having back-to-back games postponed due to COVID-19, Southern Miss interim head football coach Scotty Walden has tested positive for COVID-19.
Walden received tested positive Tuesday, and his status for this Saturday's scheduled game at Liberty is unclear.
The coach left the Duff Athletic Center to self isolate after receiving the positive test Tuesday morning.
“Earlier this morning I tested positive for COVID-19,” Walden said. “I am fine and have mild to no symptoms. I am quarantining back home until it is safe to rejoin the team. I want to thank Golden Eagle Nation for all of their support for our program during this difficult period.
