....2nd hand info here....it's being reported on Onnidan that our former coach passed away at 73. I've googled his name, but nothing has come up.
I hate not having any concrete info, but with something like this, it's worth bringing up.
If someone has news or a press release, feel free to share it. I don't think Brother JBROB would just put info like that out there without some knowledge of it.
If so, rest in peace coach. He was the first coach who really gave me optimism that A&T could really do something special with our football program......

An Eagle, who bucked going to AggieLand (from G'boro), reported it on Facebook. |

Coach Mo Forte was one of my favorite A&T Coaches. He was the first A&T football coach I got to know and he was a great guy. Rest in peace coach!
"Maurice "Mo" Forte would become the team's next head coach in 1982. Four years later, the Aggies would win their second MEAC championship. That season, standout Quarterback Alan Hooker and Wide receiver Herbert Harbison were key components to the team's championship run. Harbison's 63 catches and 883 receiving yards would set a school record, that to this day still stands.[9] Forte's record with the Aggies would end at 26 wins, 38 losses, and 1 tie."
