Fobbs' firing
N.C. A&T fired another football coach, Lee Fobbs, while I was away last week.
It's hard to fault the school for pulling the plug, based on Fobbs' inability to win. He's certainly had his chances. A&T retained him even after a winless season.
But one still has to wonder why A&T has had such a hard time fielding a competitive football team. It has a high national profile, an impressive campus and a good stadium.
Schools with a lot less have managed to do more, better.
Somewhere Bill Hayes is smiling right now.

"Somewhere Bill Hayes is smiling right now."
Fairly recently, I believe Coach Hayes was smiling in Durham, and now, as I understand it, he can be seen smiling and heard 'Rattling' in Florida.
