Marianna CB Pittman signs with FAMU
Pittman excelled in the classroom at Marianna High School with a 3.6 GPA and score of 24 on the ACT.
MARIANNA, Florida -- Shamari Pittman is staying in the Florida Panhandle for the next journey in his football career.
The Marianna High School cornerback signed his National Letter of Intent with Division 1 FCS school FAMU (Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University) on Monday afternoon in the school’s library.
When Pittman donned his orange FAMU Rattlers cap while surrounded by his schoolmates, coaches and family, he couldn’t help but reminisce.
“This is unreal. I’ve been dreaming about this since I was little,” Pittman said. “For it to finally happen is a dream come true.”
As a senior, Pittman recorded 74 tackles, nine pass deflections and two interceptions. Pittman selected FAMU, located in Tallahassee, over Webber International, Warner University, Huntingdon College, and the University of West Florida.
