(POCATELLO, ID) – Pocatello High School head football coach Tom Harrison has been suspended indefinitely. Harrison told the press Wednesday that he was placed on paid administrative leave, following an alleged verbal confrontation with a player.

Harrison has long been the center of controversy in his 12 years with the school, with incidents ranging from a DUI to a bikini-clad photo with a co-worker last year. He denies allegations that he verbally abused one of his players.

Willy Joe Walker has been named the new head coach.
