To kill a Rattler
A whopping 200 NCAA violations have been found to have occurred at Florida A&M since 1998, and that's just after the MEAC school's internal investigation. Football coach Billy Joe has already been fired, and FAMU imposed major scholarship reductions on itself. Can the school's athletics department -- already bleeding red ink -- survive this crisis? At the least, can it maintain its I-AA status in football and remain a league rival to N.C. A&T?
That planned move to I-A is looking like a distant pipedream now, isn't it?
