Jamey Shouppe

TALLAHASSEE, Florida  --  FAMU will introduce Jamey Shouppe as its next head baseball coach Wednesday at a 1 p.m. news conference.

Shouppe becomes the second permanent head coach for the Rattlers in the last four seasons. He replaces Willie Brown, who was fired following sexual harassment charges brought by a former walk-on player, who wasn’t on the team last season.

The Rattlers went 7-47 last season under interim coach Kevin Clethen. He was assisted by Brett Richardson, who also was an interim head coach before Brown was hired two seasons ago.
