TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- With their season in somewhat of a freefall, FAMU’s football players decided to confront their issues head on — without head coach Earl Holmes or any other member of his staff.“The coaches can say what they have to say, but sometimes you need to hear a different perspective from your peers,” said cornerback Devan Roberts. “As a team, there are some things we need to do together.”
Roberts and his teammates came to that conclusion during an impromptu players-only meeting. He and offensive right guard Ryan Templeton took the lead in the discussion, he said.
It started as they waited for the start of a scheduled team meeting Monday night. With most of the team gathered before Holmes and his staff arrived, they decided to let it all hang out.
Roberts said he and his teammates came to the conclusion that they are getting the right coaching, although some players were still adjusting to new schemes that Holmes and his staff brought in to start the season.
