Whole reason it was a fight in bragg in 2019…can’t support the hire
FAMU needs to fire this AD ASAP! We need a real experience AD who understands football and the importance of it to an University like FAMU!

I hope this isn’t true! If so, our AD is not in-tuned to the climate and culture of FAMU football and we know pride goes before destruction.
— Jeffrey Rumlin (@JKRumlin) January 9, 2024
They are already mad in the FB alumni group. If this is true, AD has lost the support of the alumni.
