"On Friday, I released Receivers Coach Steven Jerry and Defensive Backs Coach Jimmy Tyson," Holmes said. "I would like to thank Coach Jerry and Coach Tyson for their dedicated service to the Rattler football team over the past four years. Their professionalism during this transition period has been stellar, assisting with the recruiting of a strong 2013 class, as well as maintaining day-to-day operations during my transition to head coach. I wish them well in their future endeavors."
Jerry (pictured) coached at the College of William & Mary, the University of Central Florida, Sienna College, and the University of North Carolina. Tyson previously served as FAMU's special teams coordinator and the defensive backs coach for the FAMU Developmental Research School.
