Football scandal
After leaving Auburn University in his Junior year, Harris ended up working for Parkway Academy Charter High School in Miramar, Florida. He originally started as a snack vendor, but was later promoted to the Head Coach of the school's football and track team. In the 2009-2010, Harris, who was the Head Football coach of Parkway Academy, made the team forfeit their entire season because of being found guilty of violating 32 rules as stated in the guidelines by the Florida High School Athletic Association (FHSAA) and was fined a record $260,800. Such violations included: "Anthony Harris helped Parkway students register for summer classes at West Park High School in Broward County in order to improve grades. But West Park is not approved to provide those services in Broward, nor is it accredited by an FHSAA-approved agency. Harris took checks from Parkway parents to West Park to pay for courses at the school."
Harris, who did not complete his bachelor's degree from Auburn University, he was instead promoted to Dean of Students of Parkway Academy, rather than getting fired.
