Fangs Up

FAMU has seemed to have a constant case of the Mondays, something is always going on whether it be Athletics or academics.

We have some far, yet we have so far to go and how do we get out of the Mondays.

And Booster & NAA Members it’s time to renew those memberships.

Also Let’s talk QB 1

Meek Mill said “I used to pray for times like this, to rhyme like this

So I had to grind like that to shine like this

In a matter of time I spent on some locked-up…”

Was this what you wanted has to be the question that is asked when looking at the 

AD Skyes era at FAMU.

FAMU ain’t for the weak and its fair to look at this experiment as it nears it’s midway point.

During the Billy Joe Era a major point of contention was his use of transfer players to beef up the roster. But those players often proved to be the catalyst for the success of the Gulf Coast Offense era. 

What was controversial in those times has proven to be the catalyst for success and a necessary part of most successful programs.

But I definitely wonder if Billy Joe who proved to be a trailblazer would have been given the opportunity to use transfers in the same way the Simmons & Colzie have?

We can all agree that FAMU events are better when the band is in attendance, but how can we get the band at more events? 

But do we truly want the band at every event? 

Also the Rattler Booster are coming off of a retreat to make them a better organization. 

What are some ideas that could help them become a stronger presence and resonate with more of us who love FAMU Athletics?

Should FAMU Athletics, namely football, play more games away from the friendly confines of Bragg Stadium? 

We had a great discourse in the chat about FAMU playing more games away from Bragg Stadium if the money was right.

The upcoming SWAC Television schedule seems to validate that this is a viable product which is being undersold and under utilized. 

Could I be wrong? 

Of course but it seems like the SWAC has something which if done correctly can be monetized and with the New NCAA rules about marketing the question has to be had of can the SWAC make its own money from these new rules.

Did you catch the Rattler Booster Meeting? 

That’s cool I got you, we will talk about how the meeting went and I will share with you some of the stuff that I can. 

Of course I won’t betray the trust of this organization but I can definitely share a bit of the info that will soon be public knowledge. 

Good Times on the Hill!

We have jokes and more at a time when we could definitely use a little laughter.

One of my least favorite responses to something that is said is Sounds Good.

Because in my own person it sounds dismissive, but after listening to AD Sykes on Friday I left with the response that what she stated sounds good.

Enough Questions were answered to show that progress is being made but much of the sharing was rehashing accomplishments which have already been shared with most people but was good for those that are not fanatical about FAMU Athletics.

So where do we go from here?

Snakes on planes, Snakes on the roads and Snakes in the Bay!

Tampa is the place that will see many FAMUans descend upon it as we prepare for head towards Tampa for the National Alumni Convention.

Great time to be a Rattler, but an even better time to discuss what we want fixed at FAMU!
