TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Earl Holmes reached a place where no other FAMU coach has been to start a season, following Saturday's loss at Bragg Stadium.Holmes is now the first FAMU coach with a 0-5 start, after the Rattlers' 24-9 loss to Morgan State. That set off a firestorm of social network and website reports that the second-year coach has been fired.
Three hours after his team lost for the seventh straight time at home, Holmes said he hadn't been told that he was fired.
Athletics director Kellen Winslow was unavailable for comments, but he said through sports information director Vaughn Wilson that he hasn't taken any action on Holmes.
"Any quotes attributed to me about the status of FAMU head coach Earl Holmes are unfounded," Wilson said in a statement from Winslow.
