Townsend: FAMU athletics not 'broken'

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Since being named Florida A&M’s interim athletic director, Nelson Townsend has frequently said he wants to maintain open communication between the university’s athletic department and Rattler Nation.

He delivered on that promise in a big way Wednesday afternoon.

In front of a crowd of about 50 members of the 220 Quarterback Club, a group of FAMU sports enthusiasts, Townsend unflinchingly tackled questions on a variety of subjects.

From the the school’s athletic department, to it’s under-performing sports teams and future plans for the football team, which may not include trips to the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs.

Townsend also announced FAMU’s 2015 football schedule during the 60-minute question-and-answer session.
