NFL, CFL, AAF Scouts a No-Show at FAMU Scheduled Pro Day!
Scouts bailed out on coming to #FAMU for Pro Day. This is on the heels of rescheduling from 8 a.m. Players are extremely angry over this situation. Stay tuned for full recap.— RattlerNews.com (@RattlerNews) March 28, 2019
A handful of #FAMU players have decided to do the Pro Day drills on film. Because the scouts aren’t here, it’s viewed as “unofficial.”— RattlerNews.com (@RattlerNews) March 28, 2019

Loyd, Mart receive NAIA All-America honorable mention
It's the 11th time in 13 seasons that the NAIA All-America Committee recognized Gold Rush athletes in this sport. It's the second straight year that XULA has a pair of honorees.
Loyd is a 6-foot-5 junior forward from Baton Rouge, La., and a former Madison Preparatory Academy and Spring Hill (Ala.) College standout. In 2018-19 he became the first Gold Rush player since 2005 to lead the team in scoring and rebounding in the same season Loyd averaged 14 points and 6.2 rebounds. Loyd also led his team in field-goal percentage (.596), games played (32) 20-point games (6) and double-doubles (3). Loyd was second-team All-Gulf Coast Athletic Conference.
Mart is a 6-3 sophomore guard from Houma, La., and a former H.L. Bourgeois High School standout. He was XULA's No. 2 scorer (12.1) and rebounder (5.1) for the second consecutive season. Mart was second-team All-GCAC.
Mart scored last-second points three times in the first 13 games, including an offensive rebound and dunk with 2.7 seconds remaining Nov. 5 in a home victory against William Carey, an eventual NAIA national semifinalist.
All-time XULA has produced 20 athletes who accounted for one first-team All-America selection, four third-team selections and 19 honorable mentions.
XULA was 18-14 this season, finishing fourth in the GCAC regular season and reaching the semifinals of the GCAC Tournament.
