“If you are a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers, but don’t
currently have a favorite college team to follow, might I suggest Florida
A&M, [which] now has three former Steelers players on [its] coaching staff?”

FAMU Head Coach Earl Holmes, a former Steelers star, hired two of his former teammates to join him in Tallahassee. Levon Kirkland, a former Steelers linebacker, will serve as Holmes’ defensive coordinator. Ernie Milles, a former Steelers wide receiver, will train the Rattler wide receiver corps.
Holmes selected three additional NFL players to round out
his staff. They are Elijah Williams (Falcons), Chris Cash (Lions, Falcons), and
Corey Fuller (Vikings, Browns, Ravens).
The new hires join ex-NFL players Quinn Gray, offensive
coordinator, and George Small, associate head coach.
