FAMU Athletics Director Kicks Things Off

Tallahassee, FL – There is little doubt that Hayes and Ammons go way back. In Wednesday's press conference the new director described Dr. Ammons as the only person in the world who could get him out of North Carolina. But it's what he can do for the future of the FAMU athletics program that has Rattler's waiting to see.

I need a hundred Rattler's to donate $1000 dollars '

Although he doesn't officially start his new job until Jan.2, Hayes has already issued his call-to-action to the Rattler Nation. Hayes plans on using that seed money to recruit and advertize the program to future Rattlers and alumni. For WFSU-FM, I'm Lynn Hatter.
