TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Florida A&M's football team has been through some tough times since Oct. 28, 2014.An entire staff was told it was fired. Earl Holmes was told to leave the Ratlers' campus immediately four days before Homecoming. And the rest of the coaches were expected to work until Jan. 20 without knowing whether or not they'd be retained by the next coach.
The Rattlers lost a second straight Homecoming and fourth straight Florida Classic by a combined three points. Both games came down last-second plays in front of the goal line, and both games ended in heartbreaking fashion for FAMU.
Above all, players and coaches looked worn. At the time, interim head coach Corey Fuller said he was relieved to see the end of the season. Four-year starter Damien Fleming said it was a tough season, which was probably the understatement of the year for FAMU's leader.
