Corey Fuller confirms he has applied for FAMU head coaching job

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M interim head coach Corey Fuller told the Tallahassee Democrat Wednesday he applied to be permanent head football coach before the team left for its game against Delaware State University last Friday.

He said he has not yet been approached by anyone from FAMU's administration, but he also plans to apply for other coaching positions with the team within the week.

FAMU plays arch-rival Bethune Cookman University this Saturday in the annual Florida Classic, the season finale for FAMU.

Fuller and all of FAMU's assistant coaches were given 60-day non-renewal notices after head coach Earl Holmes was fired four days before the team's Homecoming game earlier this month.

He is 1-2 as the interim head coach.
