Culver column: Are the Florida A&M Rattlers ready?

TALLAHASSEE, Florida -- Is Florida A&M ready for the 2015 football season?

I actually hear that question quite a bit from readers, folks on social media and random passersby. Usually they’re people in orange and green. They’re the fans who know I see practices and talk with head coach Alex Wood on a regular basis.

“Is the team going to be ready for Sept. 5?”

“What do you think of the coaches?”

The 2015 Rattlers — even though many of the same players are on the team — will be completely different from what fans saw in 2014. The intensity of the coaches has affected the majority of the players, and it’s obvious the team is playing to erase whatever memories remain from last season.
