GRAMBLING, Louisiana – Head coach Broderick Fobbs and Grambling State have experienced just about everything a team could over the last couple of seasons.
In a new experience for players and coaches this past Saturday playing at historic Soldier Field in Chicago, the Tigers ventured further out into uncharted territory.
Grambling amassed 17 penalties for 181 yards in its 31-20 victory over Clark Atlanta, drawing attention to a problem that’s been metastasizing through five games this season.
“I’ve never been in that situation before,” Fobbs said. “That’s not our character. We’ve never been that type of team. I’m not going to sit up here and blame the officiating, but there were some things that were questionable. At the end of the day, you have to play the game and you have to do things the right way. We just didn’t.
“We didn’t play well. I didn’t think that we came ready to play, I didn’t think we played with any passion, I didn’t think we played hard the entire game. It’s one of those situations where it just wasn’t our day.”

from THE EDITOR: FAMU On Track to Have Winning Season
TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- By all account and in spite of the recent negative coverage by the Tallahassee Democrat, FAMU is on its way to its first winning season since Joe Taylor was head coach in 2011. At the beginning of this season I counted six games that the Rattlers should win. They are games against Texas Southern, Savannah State, Norfolk State, Hampton, Morgan State, and Howard. Just one upset along the way and FAMU could have a 7-4 season! So far, FAMU is on schedule having defeated Texas Southern at home and Savannah State away. Given Howard’s upsurge, the Bethune Cookman game at the end of the season may be the game that determines whether FAMU has a winning season. That is, if FAMU wins the games they are predicted to win and that streak should continue on Saturday.Norfolk State had its first win of the season against Delaware State University last week at home, outscoring the Hornets 17-14. Like FAMU, they ended last year’s season 4-7. I should point out that their head coach, Latrell Scott, was one of the coaches considered for the position now held by Alex Wood. The Spartans are eager to win on Saturday and start a streak that’s not in the loosing column. They lost the first game of the season at home in a close game to Division II Virginia State. That was followed by a close loss at home to FCS William & Mary. Playing their third game away the Spartans were manhandled by FCS James Madison, 75-14. The Spartans are likely viewing FAMU as a game they could win.

McCullum Rounds Out Florida A&M Men's Basketball Staff
 |
| Robert McCullum Head Men's Basketball Coach FAMU Rattlers |
“It’s a long time coming, but yet we ended up with a group of guys well suited to revitalize the basketball program. Each guy brings different experiences. Combined, I am very confident about their abilities to help elevate the program.
Briggs is no stranger to collegiate coaching, having coached for more than 18 years. Prior to FAMU, Briggs served for two seasons as an assistant coach for McLennan Community College, helping the Highlanders achieve two conference championships, one national tournament bid, and two top ten finishes in the rankings (No.9 in 2016; No.7 in 2017).
In his time before MCC, Briggs served as an assistant coach at Trinity Valley Community College, helping lead the Cardinals to a conference championship, an appearance in the NJCAA Sweet 16, and a No. 4 ranking at the end of the 2015 season.
Briggs also worked as an assistant coach at the University of Detroit – Mercy from 2007-2012. During his time at UDM, he was instrumental in helping the recovery of program – building the program to the point of securing berths in the NCAA and NIT tournaments.
McCullum values the breadth of Briggs’ experience. “Briggs is clearly the veteran of the staff. Over 20 years experience, with nine of those years as head coach outside Detroit. He took his team to three appearances in the JuCo national tournament. He attained one Final Four appearance in 2001 and his teams also enjoyed a stretch of being ranked No.1 in the country. A native of Detroit, with Midwest ties, he played at Baylor and has vast recruiting experience and is well respected. He is already making his presence felt landing quality recruits for the program, “ McCullum said.
Stephens has been coaching and training high school, college, and professional basketball players for 20 years. He has coached for USA Basketball and has trained more than 30 NBA players and over 40 professional international players. Some of these players include Jalen Rose, Amar’e Stoudemire, Rodney Hood, Thaddeus Young, Moe Harkless, Cameron Payne, Skal Labissiere, and Jonathan Isaac. Stephens comes to FAMU from IMG Academy where over the last two years he was the Associate Head Coach of the Varsity National Team. Last season they achieved a record of 28-2 and participated in the Dick’s National Championship.
“Stephens spent the last three seasons as a lead instructor at IMG Academy. There he thrived in the development of athletes. He assisted college and NBA players who trained to improve. He was involved in training and development. He has HBCU ties working at Clark-Atlanta and Lemoyne-Owen Memphis. He is a Cleveland native with ties to the south and the ability to teach on the floor and complements Briggs in recruiting and coaching,” McCullum said.
Patrick Benson is enterin his first season as the Director of Operations for the Rattlers. He spent the previous four years as a student manager for the University of Oregon Men’s Basketball team, for two of which he was the Head Manager. While with the University of Oregon, the Ducks went to the NCAA Tournament four times, reaching one Elite Eight and the Final Four this past season. He spent this past summer working for the Hoop Group as a Head Runner for their elite level summer basketball camp in Reading, PA. Patrick was born and raised in Portland, OR.
McCullum feels that Benson is a vital part of the organization. “I watched Patrick grow and develop from head manager to student-assistant in three years. He has an unbelievable work ethic. He will be the youngest on our staff, but a good addition to our chemistry,” McCullum said.

N.C. A&T Taylor Earns National and MEAC Weekly Honor
GREENSBORO, North Carolina -- The latest round of player of the week accolades going to North Carolina A&T football players was released on Monday with three different Aggies earning recognition after a 21-7 win over South Carolina State last Saturday at Oliver C. Dawson Stadium.
Safety/linebacker Jeremy Taylor (5-11, 190, R-SR, Kinston, NC) was recognized twice on Monday. He earned defensive player of the week from the MEAC and defensive player of the week honorable mention from STATS FCS. Quarterback Lamar Raynard (6-4, 200, R-JR, High Point, NC) picked another offensive player of the week nod from the MEAC, his third of the season. Kicker Noel Ruiz (6-0, 165, FR, Wilson, NC) rounded out conference awards for N.C. A&T by being named rookie of the week.
N.C. A&T made minor improvements in the two national Football Championship Subdivision polls, moving from No. 13 to No. 12 in the NCAA FCS Coaches Poll, and they went from No. 17 to No. 16 in the STATS FCS Media Poll. The Aggies (5-0, 2-0 MEAC) are one of nine undefeated teams in FCS play.
“We’re extremely happy to be 5-0,” said N.C. A&T coach Rod Broadway. “We’re showing signs that we are developing into a good football team. With the success we have had over the last few years, our guys know how to win. The Lesson we’re teaching now is how to handle winning. A part of handling winning is putting the past behind you and focusing in on what’s ahead of you.”
Taylor has played a major part in all the winning. Taylor led the Aggies in tackles last season and holds the team lead in tackles this season. He did major damage to SCSU’s offense last Saturday. He played a part in forcing all three of the Bulldogs’ turnovers with two forced fumbles and an interception. Taylor earned co-defensive player of the week honors three weeks ago after posting 10 tackles, forcing and recovering and fumble and interception one pass. He was named national defensive player of the week by STATS FCS last season after spearheading the Aggies upset of Kent State.
Raynard continues to march toward one of the best seasons by an Aggies quarterback in school history. For the second time this season, he had a passing performance that ranked among the top-10 performances of all time in school history. Against the Bulldogs, he threw for 298 yards, two touchdowns and an interception on 18-for-31 passing. It was the ninth-best passing performance in school history, one step behind his 321-yard performance against Gardner-Webb on Sept. 2 which ranks as the eighth-best. Raynard threw a career-long 71-yard touchdown pass to Xavier Griffin versus SCSU. It was his 14th touchdown pass of the season.
Nationally, Raynard is second in yards per attempt (10.4) and passing TD’s. He is sixth in points responsible for (92), ninth in passing per completion (15.22), 11th in completion percentage (.683), 12th in passing yards (1,309) and 15th in total offense (283.2).
Ruiz found his rhythm as the Aggies kicker last Saturday. After missing the first two field goals of his career, Ruiz bounced back and went 3-for-3 at SCSU. His three crucial kicks were from 36, 41 and 27 yards. His 36-yarder were the first points of the game as the Aggies took a 3-0 lead in the second quarter. He later booted a 41-yarder toward in the of the first half to give the Aggies a 12-0 halftime lead. His final field goal gave the Aggies a two-touchdown lead with only four minutes remaining in the game. The Aggies have now claimed the rookie of the week award three straight weeks after Mac McCain won the honor twice over the previous two weeks.
This week the Aggies host the Greatest Homecoming On Earth as Delaware State will come to town for a 1 p.m., kickoff at Aggie Stadium.

NCCU What NC Central’s Levelle Moton has learned about his new team so far
DURHAM, North Carolina -- Defending MEAC regular season and tournament champion N.C. Central kicked off the 2017-18 season Monday at McDougald-Mclendon Arena.
Head coach LeVelle Moton put his new team through the paces. The Eagles start the season Nov. 10 at University of Illinois-Chicago.
Last season N.C. Central went 25-9 overall and 13-3 in the MEAC, advancing to the NCAA tournament for the second time under Moton. It’s too soon to tell if this team can duplicate that success, but here are some early observations from Day One.
NEW FACES
Personnel turnover is nothing new for Moton, who builds his roster year-to-year with transfers, rarely signing more than one or two true freshmen. Moton lost seven seniors from last season’s team, including all five starters. Senior forward Pablo Rivas is the only returning player who averaged double-digit minutes (18.4) last season.
Moton’s style has been an eye opener for his new players.

MEAC Commissioner Dennis Thomas: Kudos to FAMU AD Overton
TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Nationally-televised MEAC games are a chance for Commissioner Dennis Thomas to measure – and appreciate – the growth of his conference.
The MEAC has seen a resurgence of late, with players like Tarik Cohen (North Carolina A&T) and Javon Hargrave (South Carolina State) makings waves in the NFL after careers at HBCU programs. Part of that resurgence, according to Thomas, has been the conference’s deal with ESPN, which has been in place since 2005.
Thomas was on the sidelines for FAMU’s 21-14 loss to North Carolina Central, which was televised on ESPNU.
“We’re able to have two outstanding institutions and football programs will add to the branding, marking and promotions for the conference and for the institutions that are playing,” Thomas said.
“It also helps with student recruiting. You get more people from all over the country seeing the product, your intuitions. They’re more prone to go the websites to find out more about the institutions.”
Thomas, who is in his 16th year as the commissioner of the MEAC, said he’s closely watched Florida A&M’s rise under Athletic Director Milton Overton Jr. The Rattlers have set season ticket sales records every year Overton has been at the helm.
“I must commend Milton,” Thomas said.

Three graduate assistants join XULA #TeamGold
NEW ORLEANS — Xavier University of Louisiana Athletics has hired three graduate assistants, including two XULA alumni, for the 2017-18 academic year.
Joining the department are Nour Abbes for men's and women's tennis, Gary Smith for men's basketball and Josh Smith (no relation) for men's and women's cross country and track and field.
Abbes, from Tunis, Tunisia, is the only XULA athlete to win an outstanding-player award at an NAIA national tournament. She did it twice, receiving the Marvin P. Richmond Outstanding Player Award after leading the Gold Nuggets to the national semifinals in 2014 and 2015.
Abbes was first-team NAIA All-America twice — leading XULA to a No. 1 coaches poll team ranking twice in 2014 and earning the ITA NAIA No. 1 singles ranking three times in 2014-15 — before transferring to the University of Washington for her final two years. Last season she helped the Huskies win 17 dual matches and qualify for the NCAA Tournament for the first time in six years.
Abbes received her bachelor's degree from Washington in human evolutionary biology. At XULA she is pursuing a master's in counseling.
Gary Smith, from the Houston suburb of Sugar Land, Texas, and a graduate of The Village School, begins his sixth consecutive season with the Gold Rush. He was a guard for XULA from 2012-16, set the XULA career record for games played with 131 and helped the Gold Rush qualify for the Buffalo Funds-NAIA Division I National Championship every year. He is tied for 15th in program history with 260 career assists.
Gary Smith was a student assistant with the Gold Rush in 2016-17 before graduating in May with his bachelor's degree — a major in psychology and a minor in public health. He is pursuing a master's in clinician mental health counseling.
Josh Smith — a southern California native but a graduate of Flower Mound High School in Texas — competed for the University of Texas at San Antonio from 2010-14 and was a volunteer coach at Incarnate Word for two seasons (2015, 2016) and North Texas this past season. He specialized in long sprints and hurdles at UTSA, earning second-team All-America in 2013 after advancing to the semifinals of the 400-meter hurdles at the NCAA Outdoor Championships.
Josh Smith was a member of five UTSA teams that won conference track and field team championships: Southland indoors in 2011 and 2012, Southland outdoors in 2012, Western Athletic indoors in 2013 and Conference USA outdoors in 2014. He received his bachelor's degree from UTSA in kinesiology exercise science. At XULA he is pursuing a master's in post-secondary and clinical counseling.

Raheim Huskey brings toughness, leadership to Hampton Pirates
 |
| COURTESY: HAMPTON UNIVERSITY ATHLETICS |
HAMPTON, Virginia -- Nearly 23-years-old, Hampton University middle linebacker Raheim Huskey is a veteran. But in so many ways, he really isn’t.
Huskey spent three seasons at Marshall, including a redshirt year, but only played in 20 games. After transferring to Hampton in the summer of 2016, he was academically ineligible to play last fall.
So here he is, in his final season of eligibility, with a fresh start. And, he figures, somewhat anonymous.
“Nobody really knows me,” he said. “They can’t game plan me. I feel like I’m starting over as a freshman but with a senior’s mindset.”
Going into Saturday’s game at Savannah State, Huskey is leading the Pirates in tackles with 36. He also has one of Hampton’s three interceptions along with two pass break-ups.

GSU, PVAMU set for big State Fair Classic match-up
DALLAS, Texas -- Grambling State marched into Solider Field, beat Clark Atlanta, and marched out in the same poll position. Now, staying still is better than falling, but the tigers maintained their No. 19 ranking in the FCS Coaches Top 25 poll.
The G-men could make some moves if they take care of business this weekend. However, it'll be tough as they participate in the 94th Annual Southwest Airlines State Fair Classic Saturday in Dallas' Cotton Bowl stadium, of course against Prairie View A&M.
The rivalry has been very competitive since 2008. Grambling has the slight edge with five victories over the last nine meetings. Even more, the winner of this contest always becomes an early SWAC West champion favorite. Grambling State head coach Broderick Fobbs says this rivalry is a close one to his heart.
"I was that kid in the stands when Grambling and Prairie View played this game in Dallas. I've been the player on the sideline and playing in this particular rivalry and now I'm the coach on the sideline participating in it. It's a family affair, and as you all know families go at it every once in awhile. Looking forward to being here this weekend because it's one of our favorites," explained Fobbs.

Southern quarterback Austin Howard cleared to play against Alabama A&M. 'He's going to be able to go'
BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- There will not be a game-time decision regarding Southern quarterback Austin Howard this week — and this is positive news.
Despite the fact that Howard left the Fort Valley State game with an injury in the second quarter, coach Dawson Odums said Monday that Howard is healthy and will be ready for the Jaguars’ homecoming game against Alabama A&M.
“He’s going to be able to go this week,” Odums said.
Howard missed two games and most of the past month of practice with a left knee injury, but the injury that caused him to leave the Fort Valley State game was to his ankle.
Howard needed to limp off the field after sustaining the injury and watched the second half in street clothes on the sidelines.
After the game, Odums said he could have returned to the field, but the team decided not to risk worsening the injury.

Could Southern start using All-SWAC cornerback Danny Johnson on offense? 'Hopefully soon'
BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- Southern senior cornerback Danny Johnson has touched the ball nine times with an opportunity to run this season, and twice he finished the play celebrating a touchdown.
In four punt returns, four kick returns and one interception return, Johnson has accumulated 294 yards.
Could that play-making ability work on the offensive side of the ball? Southern offensive coordinator Chennis Berry broke into a knowing smile.
“We’ll see,” Berry said. “We’ll see.”
When informed that coach Dawson Odums already said that Southern has been thinking about more ways to put the ball in Johnson’s hands, the smile stayed on Berry’s face and he didn’t let up.
“We’ll see,” Berry said. “We’ll see.”
The only question, it appears, is how soon we’ll see Johnson lining up on the offensive side of the ball.
“Hopefully soon,” Johnson said when asked when he may play on offense. “I just want to make plays for the team at the end of the day. Whatever we can do to get in a winning position, I’ll do it.”

Defense, Balanced Attack Lead PVAMU Panthers To Big Home Win
PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas -- The Prairie View A&M University football win enjoyed its biggest win in new Panther Stadium Saturday with a 38-9 win over Jackson State.
PVAMU (2-2 overall, 2-0 SWAC) led 17-3 after the opening quarter in leading at halftime for the first time in six games in the new facility, posting its highest scoring output of the season heading into next week's SWAC Western Division showdown against Grambling in the State Fair Classic.
"I though the guys did a really good job of responding," said Prairie View A&M head coach Willie Simmons, who's Panthers improved to 17-3 in SWAC play since 2015. "This week, we challenged them to focus on the task at hand. Everyone knows how important the Grambling game is. They've been our Achilles heel for the last two years. It was a tall task to get our guys to focus on the game this week against Jackson State. I applaud their effort for coming out focused and locked in from the very get go."
The Panther defense forced five takeaways (four fumbles, one interception) and recorded four sacks in keeping Jackson St. (0-5, 0-2) out of the end zone until just over a minute remaining in the game. LB Jalyn Williams led the Panthers with seven tackles, including a sack, two tackles for loss, and one fumble recovery. He has eight tackles for loss in the past three games.
"The defense continues to play at an extremely high level," Simmons said. "Opportunistic football. What can you say with five takeaways. Again, they did a great job of stopping the run, and making the other team one dimensional."
Offensively, PVAMU converted two of the turnovers into points and had a balanced attack (208 rushing yards, 231 passing yards) in gaining 439 yards total offense.
QB Lavell McCullers had 258 yards total offense (190 passing, 68 rushing) and two touchdown passes. Dawonya Tucker rushed 12 times for 64 yards and a touchdown.
After an opening possession field goal by Jackson State, Prairie View A&M scored the game's next 38 points. KhaDarel Hodge caught a 22-yard touchdown pass from Lavell McCullers to end a five-play, 60-yard drive for a 7-3 lead with just over seven minutes to play in the quarter.
Manuel Mukes recovered a JSU fumble on the ensuing kickoff, leading to another scoring drive. Zach Elder's 26-yard field goal increased the lead to 10-3 just over two minutes later.
Following a three-and-out by Jackson State, it took just three plays for the Panthers' second touchdown. McCullers completed a pass to Markcus Hardy, who eluded defenders on a 76-yard scoring pass for a 17-3 lead with 2:32 to play in the first quarter.
The score would remain the same until the third quarter. A fumble recovery by Williams set up to a seven-play, 34-yard scoring drive. Sta'Fon McCray's one-yard touchdown run gave the Panthers a 24-3 lead with 11:22 to play in the period.
Late in the third quarter, Prairie View A&M drove 67 yards in eight plays. Dawonya Tucker's six-yard scoring run extended the lead to 31-3.
Kalen Riles' four-yard scoring pass from Neiko Hollins with just under three minutes to play ended the scoring for the Panthers.
"Overall, it was a really good win," Simmons said. "We're going to enjoy it for the next day and a half. We understand what's at stake next week."

West Virginia State Yellow Jackets Rally for Homecoming Victory
INSTITUTE, West Virginia -- The offense was steady and the defense came up with an outstanding performance when it was needed most as the Yellow Jackets captured a much-needed 34-28 win over Glenville State in front of a large Homecoming crowd Saturday."It was a team effort," WVSU Head Coach John Penningtn said. "That includes the alumni and all the fans, they made a difference at the end."
It looked early on like it was going to be an easy day at the office as WVSU dominated play in the first half controlling the ball for 18:30 and jumping out to a 21-7 lead.. But the Jackets could not pull away from the Pioneers and held just a 21-14 lead at halftime after the Pioneers scored in the closing seconds.
Quarterback Matt Kinnick hit senior receiver Quinton Gray on scoring strikes of 27 and 8 yards and freshman Calil Wilkins punched one in from 2-yards out to account for the Jackets' points.
Gray came into the game needing 30 yards receiving to break the career record set by Mario Lewis in 1993. He had 49 by halftime.
"That guy just works so hard," Pennington said. "He has a great attitude and you like to see guys like that get rewarded."
Glenville took the opening kickoff of the second half and it looked like the WVSU defense had forced a three-and-out but a hitting the punter penalty allowed Glenville State to retain possession and drive 83 yards on 14 plays to tie the score at 21-21.
Things took an even worse turn for WVSU on the ensuing possession. On the second play from scrimmage Wilkins broke through the left side of the line and took the ball about 18 yards to the Yellow Jacket 43 but was stripped of the ball on the way down and a Glenville State player picked it up and returned it to the WVSU 1-yard line. The Pioneers ran it in on the next play to take their first lead of the contest at 28-21 with 8:22 remaining in the third quarter.
The Yellow Jackets showed the fighting attitude they have displayed all season though and went right to work.
"That was what was the most impressive, the mindset," Pennington said. "They didn't let it effect them, they just went out there and played ball."
After the teams traded punts Kinnick and Gray took over.
First a 17-yard hookup moved the ball into Glenville State territory. The Pioneers sent the rush on the next play but Kinnick rolled left and found Gray cutting from the middle of teh field to the far sideline and hit him in full stride for a 46-yard score to tie things up at 28-28.
But the day ended up belonging to the WVSU defense as it shut down the Pioneer ground game and did not allow them into the red zone over the final 23:22 of the game even though the Pioneers flipped the time off possession to their advantage holding the ball for almost 19 minutes of the final 30.
"They did a good job of taking the air out of the ball after they got the lead," Pennington said, using a basketball metaphor.
Not only did the Yellow Jacket defense keep the visitors out of the enzone a fumble recovery by senior linebacker Trent Williamson at the Glenville State 35-yard line set up what would prove to be the game-winning drive.
Gray took an end around handoff off the left side and advanced the ball 29 yards. Then Wilkins again proved to be unstoppable when he gets the ball close to the goal line going in to give WVSU the lead at 34-28 with 11:07 to play. The extra point was wide after a penalty moved the attempt back.
A last gasp throw by the Pioneers into the endzone with 58 seconds left fell harmlessly to the ground on 4th down and 11 from the WVSU 25. A pair of Kinnick kneel downs later the game was over.
"The offense didn't play great," Pennington said. "But when the defense turned it over they took advantage."
Glenville State came into the day averaging 413.5 yards a game of offense but were held to 358 by the WVSU defense. The Yellow Jackets came up especially big in pass defense where they held the visitors to only 163 yards compared to the Pioneers average of 288.8 per game.
"That was awesome, they have some great wide receivers," Pennington said. "It just shows the job Coach (George) Shehl has done with the defense."
Kinnick threw for 227 yards hitting 20-of-32 attempts. Gray hauled in nine of those for 112 yards while Tyrell Henderson caught five for 65 yards. Wilkins continued his streak of scoring in every college game he has played but was held to just 96 yards from scrimmage, 92 on the ground and four receiving, to see his streak of games with over 100 yards broken.
Williamson finished with eight tackles including two for a loss and a sack while Darius Goode paced the Jackets with 11 total tackles.
Next up WVSU travels to Frankfort to play Kentucky State Saturday at 1:30 p.m.
