MEET ME IN HAWAII: Florida A&M head football coach Rubin Carter and North Carolina A&T head coach Lee Fobbs will be on opposite sidelines again when they coach as assistants in the Hula Bowl All-Star Game on January 14, 2007 at Aloha Stadium. Carter, in his second season at FAMU, will work with the West All-Stars, most likely tutoring the defensive line. Fobbs, in his first season at A&T, will be an assistant for the East. It will be a return to familiar ground for Carter, who earned MVP honors at the Hula Bowl in 1975 as a defensive lineman, following a stellar collegiate career at the University of Miami. Carter went on to a fruitful career in the National Football League as a premiere nose tackle for the Denver Broncos from 1975 to 1987. Fobbs had an outstanding career as a running back at Grambling State under legendary coach Eddie Robinson before a short professional career. Carter's FAMU team (5-5) knocked off Fobbs' A&T (0-10) squad 45-12 on Nov. 4 of this year.
