The full-list of applicants for Florida A&M's head coaching position

This off-season, Florida A&M began the search for a new head men’s basketball coach, replacing Robert McCullum.

In the end, the Rattlers zeroed in on St. Thomas University (NAIA) head coach Patrick Crarey II. Crarey was a successful NAIA head coach, compiling a 61-27 record with the Bobcats. He made the NAIA National Tournament Twice, making it to the Round of 16 in 2022-23.

It was an outside-the-box hire for the Rattlers, but I think this move can be a game-changer for the program. We wrote about the move in April, celebrating the risk (and potential reward) it can bring.

Of course, it wasn’t just Crarey who applied for the job. 51 people applied for the job in total, according to a public records request sent to the university. That list included current college head coaches and former NBA assistant coaches.
