In a recent article on Yellowhammer News:

At the end of May, the Alabama High School Athletic Association (AHSAA) tested instant replay during two spring exhibition games: Westbrook Christian v. Brindlee Mountain and Blount v. Baker. Throughout the two games, the coaches, players, and referees had the chance to test the new technology and apply it to realistic situations. One call was even overturned based on evidence from the replay.

 

“I’m all for it,” Westbrook Christian coach Shea Monroe said. “I thought it was really cool. Our kids were thrilled about being a part of the first game in the nation to use it. I’m not saying officials don’t do a good job. I don’t think anyone is saying that. But they are just like the rest of us. They are not perfect. They can miss a call and, down the road, this could eliminate one of those guys beating themselves up later because they might have made a ruling on a game-changing play.”

It's all in the experimental phase now. They must test to insure it is possible then present to the National Federation. What do you think? Would you like to see instant replays in a Game between Northridge and Paul Bryant or Tuscaloosa County and Hillcrest? It would be interesting for sure.
