The FAMU vs FAU football game proved to be an outing that provided the feared outcome while also giving the fans a taste of what they have been asking for. We were able to see RJ Johnson mature into what could be a serviceable QB going forward while the defense seemed to show some concerns that have others concerned as FAMU prepares to play a Red Hot Albany State Football Team.Also FAMU Volleyball came up a bit short while FAMU Golf brought home the gold.  #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

Rattlesnakes and Burrowing Owls do not share the same burrow and much like in nature we see an instance in which neither team can stay in a so called safe place. FAMU is coming off the heels of a loss to Howard while FAU is looking to bounce back from a loss to Maryland.Each team is desperate for a win for different reasons, but do we truly feel like both teams are truly in a must win mindset? What we can say is that FAMU will leave this game hoping to have answered questions about a few key positions and unscathed. While FAU is looking for a much needed shot of energy. While football continues to find its way Golf begins and Volleyball also looks to find its footing.#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

In this episode, the Playmakers shared their thoughts on the Orange Blossom Classic game between FAMU and Howard, as well as the surprising victory of Florida State over Alabama in week 1. They also discussed the epic showdown between Texas and Ohio State in week 1 and the trade of Micah Parsons to the Packers.

Florida State legend and Heisman Trophy winner Charlie Ward joins the show to break down Florida State's huge win over Alabama, share insights on quarterback play and team leadership, and discuss his journey as the head men's basketball coach at Florida A&M. Ward reflects on his playing days under Bobby Bowden, his coaching path, and how he's building a strong foundation for the Rattlers' future. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Orange Blossom Classic was nothing less than an abject disaster on one side of the field. The offense was anemic and left the fanbase asking questions that will haunt them for weeks. Chief among those questions will be centered around the quarterback position and if change is needed or should the staff dig in its heels behind RJ.It was a poor showing from that offense and that has to correctedBut the Defense and Special teams were a bright spot in what otherwise proved to be a disappointing outcome.While the football team massively fumbled the bag, the Volleyball team gave us some hope. Let's talk about FAMULY, I picked FAMU to win based on what I was told the QB position might be but now have reservations after seeing otherwise. The season is not over, but the showing in the OBC is definitely below the standard of FAMU faithful. #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

The OBC is on Saturday and that is all well and good because we know that FAMU should win that game. But what about the other games that are taking place this week? If you need to be reminded because the host of the show is kind of petty, he did pretty well in the pick'em game over the last two years. Well let's run through this week's slate of games and pick who we think will win. Also FAMU Volleyball has started and we have the opportunity to potentially repeat as SWAC champions in many sports. #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

In this episode, the Playmakers preview the FAMU 2025 football season and discuss whether head coach Mike Norvell of the Florida State Seminoles is facing pressure after a disappointing 2-10 season in 2024. They also debate the ongoing contract issues surrounding Micah Parsons.

Kendra Bulluck joins Larry Blustein tonight as she talks about the Orange Blossom Classic Game this saturday at hard rock stadium between Howard University and Florida A&M University. She talks about the matchup, what's happening that Saturday for Fanfest, and what to expect on game day between the HBCU schools

The Orange Blossom Classic is less than a week away and we still do not know who the starting Quarterback is. But we may have a friend who can tell us what he has seen from the field level at FAMU. Let us find out what may be in store in Miami and for the rest of the season.#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

Recruiting is one of the most important aspects in sports and we are seeing an increase in the number of Recruits who are committing to FAMU that are coming from the High School Ranks.A Loose episode that is on the back of a great night with friends.#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

We are good at saying that you can make it anywhere from FAMU. But can we say in good faith that players who come to FAMU are destined to play professional sports? This being said as we watch multiple FAMU players at the NFL level show that they may be staples on NFL rosters. #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

This week, we're heading to Martha's Vineyard to spotlight a one-of-a-kind FAMU fundraiser! We're joined by co-founder Hope Jones to talk about how Rattlers on the Vineyard came to life—and how it's growing into a powerful source of support for FAMU.

Let us Break Bread and talk about some FAMU Stuff on a Friday! The FAMU vs Alabama A&M game has quietly become one of the better games in the SWAC to attend or watch. The schools are in a space in which they are not able to become rivals but are also similar enough to make this a fun space to be in for both fan bases. And the age old question is if all money is good money comes into the question in regards to who will our organizations take money from. We are starting some good trouble for Lunch on a Friday. #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

FAMU vs UAPB is the quintessential definition of a trap game. And FAMU fans can no longer state that trap games do not exist as we found out the hard way at home. But this is a game that many in the fanbase would circle as a potential blow out but for what reasons could it be a blowout?All while FAMU basketball & football continue to blaze the recruiting trail. Additionally Rattler Boosters seems to have some new energy going into the new year and is looking to do some fund raising, but do we have too many splinter groups that are raising funds for FAMU to the point that we look unfocused? #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

FAMU vs Jackson State has quickly become one of the top four rivalries in the SWAC. This is honestly a happy accident that has been the result of adding one of the largest HBCU brands in the nation into a conference that had the luxury of having the other most polarizing brand within its ranks. Well this annual game has been the defacto SWAC Championship for nearly a half decade and a new power potential rising in the western division of the conference this game continues to be one of the most important games within the SWAC.#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

“I belong anywhere I want to be.' That moment snapped the energy for this episode, where Kiana Montgomery dives deep into her legacy as a third-generation Detroiter and how her public relations work is rooted in uplifting Legacy Black Detroit. She shares, “If you want to engage with that audience… that's the audience I'm looking to connect with,” weaving stories of family reunions enduring a 74% decline, summers spent in New Jersey, her grandfather's journey from Alabama with just a dollar in his pocket, and building a business servicing Detroit's cultural gatekeepers. Along the way, she reflects on how her military brat upbringing and HBCU experience at FAMU shaped her voice and how the city—with its cold winters and resilient communities—became her chosen home during the turmoil of 2020. You'll hear how she strategically connects national brands to local narratives, the power of organic networking (even through "statement piece" shoes), and why Detroit is “Clique‑ish”—a badge of respect she leverages to elevate neighborhood voices on a national stage.

One of the best traditional rivalries between fanbases is FAMU vs Southern.Two Schools that share a ton of similarities.Two Elite Bands, Two tradition rich football brands that are both in the Capitol city of the state who share the city with a major PWI. The similarities on and off the field create the perfect rivalry at what is one of the best atmospheres in HBCU sports. #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

The 2025 Homecoming for FAMU could be extremely interesting for many, especially those who plan to use this event to monetize the weekend. Hotel prices will likely stay at the same rate but the question of how many will stay away in protest becomes apparent as many have vowed to reduce the amount of support they give to FAMU. The game will hopefully be packed and the atmosphere will definitely be tense. Also FAMU Golf & Track are continuing to build support for the teams; all this takes place as the Baseball team makes an addition and the basketball team looks to fill its roster. Good time for some good trouble! Fangs Up#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

It is definitely not a Rivalry but at the end of FAMU's time in the MEAC one of the must watch games was North Carolina Central. This game was good for a close outcome and was the game that many of us predicted would be the matchup for the Celebration Bowl. Well the Celebration Bowl predictions proved to be just that, but we do get what could be a battle between two of the top teams in HBCU football .Additionally the fact that this is camp season has resulted in a few student athletes receiving an offer to continue playing sports at the Highest of Seven Hills. Let's talk about it so we can have a little distraction from what else is going on about FAMU. #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

In this week's coaching conversation, Grambling State head coach Patrick Crarey shares insights on Relationships then Championships.Crarey comes to Grambling State after spending one season as the head coach at Florida A&M.

“Keep knocking at the Devil's Door and eventually he will answer you” is my favorite quote from the movie Four Brothers and last year FAMU had Mississippi Valley answer the calls that this team would not lose to Valley; better yet end a streak against the likes of MVSU.Well the Rattlers will be traveling to Atlanta to play against MVSU in the Benz. Last time FAMU played in the Benz it was a great celebration for many that culminated in the end of an era. Additionally we have seen that the President that many did not want has been approved by the Florida BOG, drawing comparisons to the late FSU president Thrasher. We shall see how this whole thing shakes out. Fangs Up#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

Talib Qwele has a song titled country cousins and in this case these are two sets of country cousins that love to play fight! FAMU and Alabama State is the best little rivalry that most people sleep on in the SWAC. These two schools are so similar and are closer than most people realize. The two schools also have histories that are at times shared or mirror each other.Let us look at the Alabama State vs FAMU football game. Also Coaches have camps which have been fruitful in the past couple of days. The Baseball team has had multiple commitments and the Football team continues to pack what seems to be an overly filled locker room. Being a Rattler ain't for the faint of heart and we know how much FAMUans love this university. Fangs Up#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

FAMU came out of yesterday's BOT meeting with a ton of frustration on some issues but also some much needed transparency on other issues. And of course the conversation over the President elect's contract caused a good amount of consternation. But the clock keeps ticking and the question of what would the SWAC be without FAMU?FAMU continues to be the news source that keeps giving all this while FAMU has a track athlete competing at the National Level and we look to the third game of the football season which will be against the Albany State University Golden Rams.FAMU keeps providing all the entertainment that we would ever need.

FAMU vs FAU is the second game of the season and both teams are battling for supremacy in the classroom and on the field. Back to back weeks in which FAMU will be playing games in South Florida but this time against a program which should prove to be a formidable foe and who may even be more talented than FAMU. We also find ourselves in a place as FAMU Alumni that we ask the question if unification with other schools works well. #FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

The Orange Blossom Classic is the season opener and what is Miami without a good party? But the party only goes well if we win and the last time FAMU played Howard it was for the Celebration Bowl in Atlanta at the end of the Season. This time the team opens the season in a rivalry which will allow the fans between the two schools to show who has the better party and who has the better team. We also have seen additions to the other sports that may excite the base. FAMU will be in A and the MIA. Hoping to see the Alumni come out in droves this season.#FangsUp #FAMU #HBCU #HBCUdigital

Live from Tallahassee, J.B. White delivers a fiery and reflective episode of the RattlerGator Report, unpacking the political and cultural tensions shaping Florida and the nation. He begins with a passionate response to the controversy surrounding the appointment of Marva Johnson as the new president of Florida A&M University, calling out emotional reactions and urging FAMU supporters to engage with political reality, especially in a Republican-led state. J.B. then shifts to national issues, praising Senator Marco Rubio's bold vision for reforming the State Department and spotlighting a powerful essay on America's Western heritage by Samuel Sampson. He also highlights Seth Keshel's private White House briefing on election integrity and urges patience with Trump's behind-the-scenes strategy. With deep dives into media manipulation, the infantilization of race discourse, and the misuse of language as a weapon, J.B. pulls no punches. From calling out the racial gatekeeping of the N-word to dissecting Trump's strategic moves, he challenges listeners to toughen up, wise up, and stop letting enemies define the terms of battle. This episode is part sermon, part street fight, and all unapologetic Badlands commentary.

Hey ya'll hey! Thanks for tuning into Episode 108 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"The Griot, The Artist, and the Educator." In this week's episode, I finally give my initial thoughts around Ryan Coogler's film "Sinners." For me, the film was a lesson in all things African cosmology including African futurism, Nommo (or the power of the spoken word), and Diaspora consciousness. Needless to say it was EVERYTHING I wanted it to be and some of what I couldn't have even imagined. I'll share who I think the real griot of the film was (please let me know if you agree!). I'll also share with you my feelings as a Humphries Era Rattler and the recent Board of Trustees election of Marva Johnson as the 13th President Elect of FAMU. And, if you're really wanting to unpack thei deas around Black history, Black spirituality, and Black culture, please consider being a guest on the podcast.

In Florida they’re calling her ‘MAGA Marva’ Johnson, the ally of Governor DeSantis who is very nearly the 13th president of the historically Black university, FAMU. How did we get here, where a nominee who is roundly rejected by the community is STILL being lifted to the highest office? And what happens next? To answer these questions, Andrew Gillum is joined by two guests.

Florida A&M University is in search of a new president. Several finalists have been put forward, including Marva Johnson, who has strong ties to Governor DeSantis and his anti-DEI, anti-Black history stances.
