A&T's Rod Broadway to consider retirement or contract extension

GREENSBORO, North Carolina -- It will be an anxious two weeks for the N.C. A&T football program.

Fresh off the best season in historically black college football history, Coach Rod Broadway is set to meet with athletics director Earl Hilton and Chancellor Harold Martin “at the beginning of the year” to discuss his future with the Aggies.

The 62-year-old Broadway, 59-22 at A&T with two Celebration Bowl victories, is considering retiring or signing a contract extension.

He didn’t tip his hand one way or the other when reached by phone this afternoon.

“We’re going to sit down and discuss the direction of the program and go from there,” Broadway said.

Broadway made $299,290 this season in what was the final year of a two-year extension. With no contract, he’s considering retiring after resurrecting an A&T program that was hampered by sanctions when he took over and guiding it to two black college football national championships and A&T's first 12-0 season.
