Walker, who spent his entire football career in Alabama, is the second coach to resign at UAB in a month.
In an unexpected development, UAB defensive coordinator Duwan Walker resigned from his post effective immediately earlier Monday afternoon. The news was first reported by AL.com.
Walker, who has spent his entire coaching life in the state of Alabama, will be leaving the Blazers football program to pursue a private business. Walker has been a part of the UAB staff since current head coach Bill Clark took over in 2014, coming over from Jacksonville State in Gadsden, AL.
