This one isn't as much about if it should have happened as much as how it happened. Firing family members the very next working day sends a very bad message. I wouldn't want to work for someone who wouldn't have at least let me transition. This isn't the Pro's or a Mega- Collegiate Program. The job has to be left attractive a quality coach.
The public is invited to the Tallahassee Quarterback Club's meeting at the University Center Club's third-floor ballroom. FAMU head coach Rubin Carter is scheduled to be the featured speaker. Call Jim Conner at 545-2323. http://www.tallahassee.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2007711200325
Ammons was right to fied all of Corbin and Gaious cronies within the athletic department.I believe FAMU don't hired assistant from losing progam like FIU whatsoever. WE need hire a coach that has provern track record as winner..
All the assistant coaches were released, to give the new coach an opportunity to hire his own staff. No one should be forced to work with someone they didn't hired.
Dr. Ammons is doing a wonderful job thus far... Remember everyone it is the Athletic "Football" and "Basketball" Programs that bring in BIG dollars to support the Universities... IF IT IS RAN RIGHT, PROPERLY MANAGED, PEOPLE ARE IN PLACE FOR THE RIGHT PURPOSE.... look at the other institutions PLEASE LET THE MAN WORK -
DR. AMMONS HAS GREAT VISION FOR THIS UNIVERSITY, HE IS BEING LEAD BY A HIGHER POWER THAN YOU AND I "GOD".
"Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. PSALM 25:4-5
LIKE I SAID BE STILL!!! "LET THE MAN WORK" and lean not to your own understanding.
If the MEAC Champions Delaware State just got clobbered in the first round of the playoffs by Delaware, and FAMU finished second to last in the M-E-A-C, then Rubin Carter should have been fired, along with his entire coaching staff, Nelson Townsend and his entire staff, and we should hire Billy Joe tonight.
At least we will dominate the league again and be representative in the playoffs.
The MEAC has got to be the weakest conference in all of D-1 football and we finished second to last. How can anybody rank a MEAC team highly next season with this kind of showing in the playoffs. It's a joke!
Thanks Dr. Ammons for making a change. Hire Billy Joe tonight and let's return our program to prominence! I don't care if Coach Joe coaches from the roof! We will not be embarrassed like this!

ReplyDeleteFirings are never good. In the football arena, or just plain ole sports it's best to do it at the end of the season of just before the season is over.
ReplyDeleteHowever, this took way too long. Missing receipts, mutiny on the gridiron, how much more could we take.
Sorry, but those two should have never been hired. This is the second time Townsend was asked to leave FAMU.
Again, NuRattler, this board doesn't need to fall victim to these anti-FAMU spammers like 11/20/2007 11:26 PM.
ReplyDeleteYou've tried to send them a message by deleting their posts and they haven't listened. These people's IP addresses simply need to be blocked.
Why were all the football coaches fired. Wasn't there one good egg in the bunch? Something smells real bad here.
