TAMPA, Florida -- There’s no championship on the line and even with the odds against FAMU for its men’s basketball game tonight against South Florida, the Rattlers’ fans are planning to make their team feel at home in the Sundome.For more than a week, FAMU alum Michael Reid has been encouraging FAMU fans in Tampa and surrounding area to show up in support of the Rattlers. His appeal comes at a time when the Rattlers are in the midst of a four-game road trip that began Tuesday in Mississippi and will end Dec. 24 after a tournament in Las Vegas.
Having a larger-than-usual crowd of supporters on the road couldn’t come at a better time, said coach Clemon Johnson. The Rattlers (2-7) were headed to Tampa on Wednesday morning after playing in Starkville, Miss., where they lost 78-65 to Mississippi State.
