TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida A&M University is planning to cut two men’s athletic programs and cut staff and operating expenses by $800,000.
It's all apart of FAMU's plan to reduce a projected $2.4 million budget deficit in its athletics department.
FAMU Athletic Director John Eason will make the call on what sports to cut. Those cuts will then take effect for the 2020-2021 season.
There's no timetable on when a decision will be made for what sports to cut, but it will more than likely come before Thanksgiving.
The sports that are most likely to be cut are men's indoor/outdoor track and field, tennis, and/or golf.
Not 100% sure when decision will be made what sports will be cut, but more than likely before Thanksgiving.
