Florida A&M Ratttlers could have football coach this week

TALLAHASSEE, Florida  --  With the last interview of three finalists completed Wednesday, FAMU administrators would like to wrap up the hiring of their next jead football coach by the end of this week.

Interim president Larry Robinson said Wednesday night that contract negotiations might be the only sticking point in the process.

John Hendrick was the last of the three candidates to interview Wednesday. John Eason interviewed on Tuesday, and Earl Holmes interviewed last Friday. Holmes, an assistant under former coach Joe Taylor, has been running the program since Taylor retired in November.

“I’m trying to get it done this week; that’s the part of picking the person and then negotiating the deal,” Robinson told the Democrat. “We are going to do everything in the next few days to get all that done.”

A search committee recommended the three finalists to Athletic Director Derek Horne and Robinson two weeks ago.
