Congratulations to the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame Inductee Class of 2024.
Congratulations to the 2024 inductees to the Florida A&M University (FAMU) Sports Hall of Fame. Your recognition and enshrinement add to an illustrious list of FAMU athletes, coaches, financial contributors, and supporters all of whom have distinguished themselves as exemplary and been impactful to the rich legacy of FAMU athletics.
On behalf of my late husband and FAMU Hall of Famer, LTC Robert L. “The Trapper” Rollins, who was the longstanding Chair of the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame Committee since its inception, and an integral part of its visionary launching, I would also like to express appreciation and congratulations to Mr. Marvin E. Green Jr., President of the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame and his entire Board of Directors. Continuation of this evolving and monumental ceremony speaks to your collective resolve and dedication. Bob would be elated and extremely proud of your endeavors and success.
I would also like to express special appreciation to former FAMU President Larry Robinson, Ph.D., and The Rev. Dr. R.B. Holmes for their critical leadership during challenging times for FAMU athletics. And to Ricardo Kinsey and Lloyd & Ella Cobbs, thank you for your epic financial contributions that have made such a difference.
It was a pleasure for me to witness and support the vital efforts of the historic FAMU Sports Hall of Fame Committee for many years. The opportunity to set up the initial ceremonial cake-cutting with ribbons for inductees will always be a cherished memory for me.
Again, best wishes to all 2024 inductees.
With Rattler Pride,
Mrs. Vertia M. Rollins & Family
A History of Pure Greatness
Every athletic program or team can point to one or more performers who are head and shoulders above the rest, and who often go on to distinguish themselves on the larger stage.
Althea Gibson, the forerunner of Arthur Ashe, and later the Williams Sisters, was the first Black tennis player to breakthrough in the major tennis tournaments, capturing the Italian, Australian, French, U.S. Open and Wimbledon in the late 1950s.
The penultimate victories at Wimbledon in 1957 and 1958 erased any doubts as to the supreme talents she possessed, and Gibson left the tennis tour to embark on a successful stint on the Ladies’ Professional Golf tour. Her courageous performances in the face of racism has made her an inspirational and enduring symbol for Black athletes. In 2019, the USTA honored her legacy with a statue outside of Arthur Ashe Stadium in Flushing, New York.
Robert “Bullet Bob” Hayes, the scintillating speedster from Jacksonville, Florida reigns for decades as the first and only athlete to be a world champion in two sports - track and football. Hayes, who shattered world records in track, completed his meteoric ascent in the world of track and field with a double gold medal performance in the 1964 Tokyo Games -winning the 100 meter dash, and running anchor on the 4x100 relay. Those performances remain one of the greatest
in Olympic history. Hayes parlayed his sprinter’s speed and football skills into an All-Pro career as a receiver in the NFL, helping lead Dallas to a Super Bowl win in 1973, and in the process earning a place in Pro Football’s Hall of Fame in 2009.
William “Bill” Lucas, the first FAMU Baseball player drafted by a professional team (Milwaukee Braves in 1958), rose through the ranks of the Braves’ organization to become the first Black general manager of a Major League Baseball team.
Lucas, a sparkling middle infielder, whose pro playing career was cut short by a knee injury, embarked on a career path in management which led him to the front office when the franchise moved to Atlanta. In 1976, he was named general manager by owner Ted Turner, and despite his untimely death three years later, his moves to rebuild the franchise from top to bottom turned the Braves into consistent contenders by the early 1980s.
Jake Gaither, who would take the wheel in 1945, steered the program to one of the greatest runs in college football history. Gaither won 203 games in 25 years, producing 36 All-Americans, including NFL Hall of Famer Bob Hayes, College Hall of Fame running back Willie Galimore (1999), and threetime All-American center Curtis Miranda, while also winning six national titles and bringing home 23
conference championships.
Ohio State graduate Rudy Hubbard, the second OSU alum (Bill Bell was the first) to helm the Rattlers, steered FAMU back to the top, going 30-5 in his first five years with an undefeated season, two national titles and an upset of Miami.
Hubbard’s 12-year tenure produced the school’s first College Hall of Fame player, All-America Tyrone McGriff 1996), ushering FAMU into Division I football in 1978, by winning the inaugural NCAA Division I-AA national title.
Kenneth “Ken” Riley’s legacy is unlike any other’s at FAMU. He played football for Jake Gaither. As quarterback he was an All-Conference performer, leading the potent FAMU offense. He would be drafted by the Cincinnati Bengals and converted to cornerback. He would go on to play 15 years with the Bengals, retiring as the fourth-leading interceptor in NFL history. Riley became the second FAMUan enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame when his bust came to rest in Canton, OH in 2023.
Costa “Pop” Kittles is the latest installment to FAMU’s national hall of fame enshrinees. Kittles was selected as a member of the 2025 ABCA Baseball Hall of Fame. His accumulation of over 400 wins and metoring Andre Dawson, Hal McRae and Vince Coleman factored into his greatness as a coach. His longevity as well as stellar winning percentage marks him as elite.

Congratulations to the Florida A&M University (FAMU) Sports Hall of Fame Class of 2024! Your hard work and dedication, both on and off the field, have made an enduring and positive impact on FAMU.
As student-athletes, Andrea Aaron, Tracey Parker, Harvey Cooper, Lt. Col. Charles Hobbs Sr., and Philip Malcom not only excelled in the classroom but also led their teams to greatness on the track, volleyball court, and baseball diamond, respectively. Coaches George Ellis and Mike Gillespie Sr. went beyond their roles, serving as mentors who guided the next generation of FAMU athletes to success both in sports and academics. Their induction into the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame is a true testament to their dedication and hard work.
Mr. Lloyd & Mrs. Ella Cobbs, Mr. Ricardo Kinsey, Rev. Dr. R.B. Holmes, and Dr. Larry Robinson, your unwavering support for FAMU athletics is a key reason why Rattlers continue to strive for excellence and strike from the top. Thank you for your invaluable contributions to the university. The impact you have made will not only be honored in the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame but will also live on in the hearts and minds of Rattlers everywhere.
Sincerely,
John E. Dailey

Dear FAMU Family,
Since its inception in 1976, the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame has proudly honored over 200 of our university’s finest athletes and contributors. This esteemed institution has become a home for the legends who have shaped the rich legacy of FAMU Athletics—both on the field and beyond.
It is with great pride that I extend my heartfelt congratulations to the 2024 Class of the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame. By joining this prestigious group, you now stand alongside some of the greatest individuals to have ever represented our beloved university.
We honor Andrea Arron (Track & Field) and Tracy Parker (Volleyball) for continuing the proud legacy of women’s athletics at FAMU. Your names now join the ranks of pioneers like Althea Gibson and Pam Oliver.
To Harvey Cooper (Baseball), the late Charles Hobbs Sr. (Football), and Philip Malcolm (Baseball), we welcome you to the Hall. Your contributions are forever etched alongside FAMU legends like Bob Hayes and Andre Dawson.
A special salute to Coaches George Ellis (Swimming and Diving) and Mike Gillespie (Basketball), whose leadership has helped shape the champions of tomorrow. You now stand in the company of greats like Robert Mungen and Costa Kittles.
No athletics program can thrive without strong financial support, and we are grateful to Lloyd & Ella Cobbs and Ricardo Kinsey for their exceptional contributions in this vital area. You have truly been the driving force behind the team.
Finally, we recognize two remarkable individuals whose dedication to FAMU Athletics has been immeasurable: The Rev. Dr. R.B. Holmes and Dr. Larry Robinson, FAMU’s 12th President. Your tireless work has contributed directly to the success and growth of our athletics programs over the years.
As the 19th Vice President and Director of Athletics at Florida A&M University, I am deeply honored to celebrate the 2024 Class of the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame. You represent the best of FAMU Athletics and are a testament to the excellence that defines our university.
Sincerely,
Angela Suggs
Angela Suggs Vice President & Director of Athletics Florida A&M University
The only human to have both and Olympic Gold Medal and NFL Super Bowl Championship.
“Pooh” as she is affectionately known, was a stellar athlete during the tenure of FAMU Sports Hall of Fame Track Coach Dr. Darlene Moore in various field events for the Lady Rattler Track & Field team. Aaron was a field events specialist who was a six-time medalist in MEAC Championships. She helped the team to a runners-up finish her freshman year. In 2015, her hammer throw, discus, and shot-putting helped the Lady Rattlers to the 2015 MEAC Outdoor Track & Field Championship, upsetting perennial power North Carolina A&T. In 2016, the Lady Rattlers would repeat behind her winning two field medals. She holds the FAMU record for the hammer throw.
Ella Cobbs has been one of FAMU’s most consistent supporters over the last several years. She and husband Lloyd have been honored by the university on several fronts for their financial support to efforts across the campus. Lloyd often brags “Ella writes the checks and Ella signs the checks.” She has been the force behind the duo’s ardent support of everything FAMU. Upon graduating, Lloyd and Ella have been tenacious contributors to FAMU Athletics and FAMU in general. Their directed contributions to FAMU Athletics have been through the Rattler Boosters, Eddie Jackson 220 Quarterback Club, National Rattler “F” Club and provided additional financial support to several initiatives directly to athletics teams.
Lloyd Cobbs was a standout football player for the Rattlers. A career-ending knee injury sidelined his time with the Rattler Football team under coach Rudy Hubbard. It would lead to him focusing on his studies at the FAMU School of Business and Industry. He would leave FAMU and become one of the most successful black businessmen in America, with groundbreaking achievements. Upon graduating, he and his wife Ella have been consistent contributors to FAMU Athletics and FAMU in general. Their directed contributions to FAMU Athletics have been through the Rattler Boosters, Eddie Jackson 220 Quarterback Club, National Rattler “F” Club and provided additional financial support to several initiatives directly to athletics teams.
Cooper was one of FAMU baseball’s best-ever hitters. Costa “Pop” Kittles selected him as captain of the team as he was a leader from behind the plate as catcher. His career batting average was .340. His team won three (3) SIAC Baseball Championships with Harvey leading his team. His play also led the team to be invited to the NAIA National Playoff game held in St. Joseph, MO in 1962. He was Co-Captain of a team that posted a 18-3 record. He went on to play professional baseball. He was also a proud member of the military where he served our country. Recently he has become a published author.
FAMU swimming and diving as an NCAA sport can be traced directly to George Ellis. Immediately after graduating and competing for the Rattlers, Ellis took the reigns of the program and took the FAMU Swimming and Diving team to heights unseen. He was the FAMU Swimming & Diving Coach from 1971-2008. Ellis was named National Black Swimming Diving Coach of The Year by (NBSDO), Nationals & Conference Coach of The Year (Multiple YearsNBS, DA, SIAC, MEAC), and was the captain of FAMU’s first swim team (1969-71). As head coach Ellis had an 85% winning percentage against HBCUs.
Gillespie took over a struggling program and turned it into a perennial contender during his six years as head coach. His teams posted a 62-46 record in MEAC play, and 8-3 in MEAC Tournament play, capturing two (2) tournament titles in 2004 and 2007. The 2003 and 2004 teams featured Hall of Fame guard Terrence Woods, who led the NCAA in Three-Pointers both years, finishing a two-year run with 239 triples. Gillespie led the 2004 team to defeat Lehigh (Pa.) in the NCAA Tournament Opening Round; FAMU’s first-ever and only Division One postseason win. The 2007 team finished 21-14, recording a FAMU Division One school record for victories. Gillespie was named MEAC Tournament Outstanding Coach in 2004 and 2007.
Hobbs was known as a fierce blocker paving the way for great FAMU running backs for legendary coach Jake Gaither. That included all-time great Robert “Bob” Hayes and Robert “China Doll” Paremore. Hobbs, was a four year letterman dual-threat at guard and linebacker. While it is difficult for linemen to stand out, Hobbs was considered a key player on the 1959 & 1961 Black National Championship Teams. He signed a rookie invitation from Pittsburgh Steelers, 1963. After his stint in professional football, Hobbs would return to FAMU to serve as longtime administrator. He was also a member of the U.S. Army where he served for 20 years including in the Vietnam War.
The Rev. Dr. R.B. Holmes has been an avid supporter of FAMU Athletics. As a FAMU Trustee, he was heavily involved on rebounding the athletic department from the multi-million dollar shortfall. Holmes has personally contributed as well as challenged his Bethel Missionary Baptist Church to match or exceed his donations to FAMU Athletics. He has served as chaplain for the men’s basketball team for several years. He devised a group of contributors called “Friends of FAMU” to address the athletic department’s shortfall. In doing so, he produced a “FAMU Legacy Banquet” which saw four living FAMU Presidents and several former Miss FAMU’s in attendance. In all, that effort raised over $250,000 that went directly to the athletic department’s shortfall.
Ricardo “Rick” Kinsey has been one of the university’s most active contributors. FAMU recognized him for his dedication to the general university with a ceremony at the eternal flame. Along with contributing to the general university and ROTC program, Kinsey had contributed substantial donations to FAMU Athletics. While he has contributed to several larger projects, he has taken a special interest in FAMU’s golf program. He spearheaded an initiative and raised the funding to support motorized golf carts for the golf team. Recently, he spearheaded with his own funds, a putting course inside the new FAMU golf locker room.
“Poncho” Malcolm has the FAMU record for highest batting average in a season at .529. He was Co-Captain of a team that posted an 18-3 record. Phillip accompanied Harvey in leading this team to the be invited to play in the NAIA National Playoff game. He went on to play three (3) seasons for the Pittsburg Pirates Professional team. He was known for outstanding and nearly unreal game stats. In one game against Alabama State during his career, he recorded a home run, a double and two singles. Malcolm was nearly impossible to get past as a batter.
As a Freshman, Parker became the single “setter” for her experienced team, becoming single season assists leader with 1,575. She was the leader in assists/games with 10.86, good for 2nd in NCAA Division-I. In her sophomore year she was again the team leader 10.6 assists-per-game, leading the team to two consecutive Championships (1995 & 1996). She was the MEAC Tournament MVP and Sarah Yates Invitational MVP in 1996. A three-sport student-athlete at Comstock High School in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Parker turned down scholarship offers from Eastern Michigan, Michigan State, Memphis State and Southern to don the orange and green.
FAMU President Larry Robinson, Ph.D. was the 12th President of Florida A&M University. The FAMU Sports Hall of Fame has inducted every university president who has presided over the university when a national championship in athletics was won. Robinson has two under his direction with the 2023 HBCU Football National Championship and the 2024 PGA Works Collegiate Championship (HBCU Golf National Championship). In addition, Robinson is credited with a total rebuild of the athletic department’s academics and compliance staff with a robust system that is overseen by the university. Additionally, Robinson approved and guided FAMU’s transition from the MEAC to the SWAC.
Young honored with inaugural Hansel E. Tookes Sr. Trailblazer Award
There was a time when a trademark of the university was no longer filling the void of entertainment from games to pep rallies to commencements…the horns had all gone silent. The world-renown Marching “100” was on the sidelines to say.
There was no replacing the Marching “100”, but something had to be done at halftime. To try to pacify the situation, FAMU hired stars like MC Lyte and Future who performed at halftime.
With all the effort, it still was
not a viable replacement for the high energy, traditional songs, and impromptu game entertainment the Marching 100 was known for.
On May 7, 2013, then interim President Dr. Larry Robinson announced at a FAMU Board of Trustees meeting a new leader. A person charged with revitalizing the glitz and glamour of the band; but do it under the most stringent set of guidelines possibly any band had ever faced. Charged with fulfilling the task was Dr. Sylvester Young.
Once a member of the March-
ing “100” and retired as Director of Bands for Miami of Ohio, Young traded in his rocking chair for the baton of the world’s most famous band.
Sunday Sept. 1, 2013, Young would unveil the new version of the Marching “100.” With about 150 members, the band would head to Orlando to play for the MEAC-SWAC Challenge in the Florida Citrus Bowl. In temperatures reported on the artificial turf to be in excess of 120 degrees, the Marching “100” returned with flying col-
ors. It was a breath of fresh air as the university could finally exhale as the “100” was back.
We may never be able to quantify the importance of what Dr. Young did. He was an “outside the box” selection for FAMU, but he was just what was needed. Not only was his expertise in musicianship important, but his demeanor was equally critical.
Young, in his unassuming manner would guide the band with a clean slate before handing the baton over to Dr. Shelby Chipman in 2016. Nearly three years to the day, Young gracefully and quietly bowed out of the task of reviving the Marching “100” with little to no fanfare. That’s just the kind of guy he is.
The FAMU Sports Hall of Fame committee celebrates an impeccable legacy. The 2024 and first-ever Hansel E. Tookes Sr. Trailblazer Award was bestowed upon Dr. Sylvester Young.
Kittles enshrined in ABCA Hall of Fame
Legendary Florida A&M coach
Acosta “Pop” Kittles was selected and enshrined into the American Baseball Coaches Association (ABCA) Hall of Fame in a lavish ceremony at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center in Washington D.C. on Jan. 3. The ceremony at the beautiful National Harbor was sold out as baseball elite gathered to honor the new inductees. The ABCA Hall of Fame is the ultimate shrine to the greatest coaches in amateur baseball, including college and high school.
Kittles, who had two popular monikers, was a multi-talented athlete that translated to an even better coach at FAMU. He was called “Costa,” which was a shortening of his actual name, however those who knew him closest knew him simply as “Pop.” He was the nicest of people in one minute and the sternest of coaches in the next. All who encountered him loved and admired him. His legacy at FAMU, especially among his former players, looms larger than life.
Kittles began his association with FAMU as a high school graduate who came to school to play football and baseball. He was an All-American end at FAMU for the football team and was an All Star catcher for the Rattler baseball team. He played
for College Football Hall of Fame coach Jake Gaither at FAMU. He played an integral part in Gaither’s first national football championship in 1960 as offensive line coach. He graduated from FAMU in 1951 and earned his Master’s degree from Ohio State University in 1953.
Kittles played baseball under the “Father” of FAMU baseball Dr. Oscar A. Moore. He and Kittles would have the Florida A&M baseball field named after them (Moore-Kittles Field) in 1999. They were both assistant professors of Health, Physical Education and Recreation.
Kittles would earn an amazing .758
winning percentage as head coach, garnering an amazing 401-128 record. He took the helm of the Rattlers in 1960 and immediately won seven consecutive Southern intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC) championships. He would win eight SIAC championships in all, appeared in six NAIA district playoffs, and advanced to the 1962 NAIA World Series in 1962.
Kittles recruited and coached greats like Andre Dawson, Hal McRae, Vince Coleman and Bill Lucas. Dawson would go on to be enshrined into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY in 2010.
He would credit Kittles for his success during his hall of fame acceptance speech. “(I want to thank) coach Costa Kittles who gave me a chance at Florida A&M University as a walk-on when no other college would look at me because of a knee injury,” Dawson said during his Pro Baseball Hall of Fame address. It was a testament to the foresight of Kittles and his investment into his players.
ABCA Hall of Fame committee member Ron Maestri felt a sense of satisfaction that Kittles was finally enshrined. “When you looked at his record, when you looked at what he
did for the community, and you look at the players he had…not only as great players, but great men. Hal McRae, The Hawk (Andre Dawson), Vince Coleman, my goodness. Great men, great leadership, hall of famers…what can you say?”
At the ceremony Kittles, who \ passed in 2003, was honored with the reading of some of his biographical information. He was awarded a plaque and a ceremonial ring, Two of Kittles’ former FAMU players, Stanley Strong and William “Soup” Campbell, traveled to Washington, D.C. to witness their former coach being enshrined.
Campbell, who was inducted into the FAMU Sports Hall of Fame for his play under Kittles, was ecstatic to see Kittles being honored. “He was very strategic and he made you reach down inside yourself and find out what you were made of. He would challenge you. I took that with me the way he coached. He wouldn’t just give you the whole package, he would break down the parts. He would break down the hitting, he would break down the fielding, he would break down the throwing…the technique. He would go from the parts, then put it all together for you,” Campbell said.
Strong echoed Campbell’s sentiments about Kittles. “He’s one of the few coaches that I know, and we didn’t know at that time, he would check all of our schedules to make sure we were on line to graduate, taking the courses and in class. He was a special guy and I’ve always had the utmost love and respect for him.”
“To
God Be the Glory!”
