TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Jamey Shouppe wrapped up his second season at the helm of the Florida A&M baseball program this season, and what a season it was.Shouppe's Rattlers won the MEAC Championship, the program's first since 1994, and made their first ever NCAA Regional Appearance. That success, obviously a crucial point when it comes to recruiting.
Shouppe said while he still makes phone calls to recruits, for the first time, recruits are now making phone calls to him.
"We don't have to spend the first thirty minutes in a conversation, at least in the state of Florida, explaining who FAMU is," he laughed. "We kind of have got back on the map a little bit in terms of baseball. The thing for us is, we can't be satisfied as a coaching staff, and we're not, because we still feel like, you know, the baseball at FAMU is a snap shot of FAMU overall. We're getting better, but we still have a long way to go, as a baseball program and as a University."
