The FAMU board of trustees had issued a vote of no confidence in Winslow in November, arguing he showed poor leadership and failed to consult key supporters while making decisions they viewed as detrimental to the program.
Winslow, a five-time Pro Bowl tight end who had no previous athletic administration experience, spent just eight months at FAMU.
Mangum hired him and continued to support him after resigned. She also noted he donated $3,000 to support the athletic department that has been coping with a $7.6 million deficit.
“Whatever you’re impressions of Mr. Winslow have been — and I’ve gotten quite a few comments — I ask you to Take a moral high ground and wish him well also,” she said.
