TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Akil Blount is in his fourth year with Florida A&M’s football team.During his first three years, the Rattlers were coached by three different men while compiling a 10-26 record.
Blount, now is his senior season, has put together an impressive individual campaign (47 total tackles, two interceptions returned for touchdowns) while the Rattlers (1-6, 1-3 MEAC) have adjusted to life under yet another new regime.
Still, heading into Senior Night against North Carolina A&T, Blount said there’s nowhere he’d rather be. He and FAMU’s other seniors will take the field at Bragg Memorial Stadium one last time on Saturday against the FCS No. 20 Aggies (6-1, 4-0 MEAC).
“It’s a bittersweet feeling to come in here and finish all four of my years and really have a better career than what I thought I would have,” Blount said.
