Less than a month in, Ed Reed’s tenure at Bethune-Cookman University is over. Reed announced via social media on Saturday that the school will not be ratifying his contract to become the Wildcats’ head football coach.
Dan Wolken looks at if Georgia can now be considered the team to beat in college football.On Saturday morning, Reed took to social media and announced his contract would not be ratified by the university after an agreement between the parties had been in place. Later, via Instagram, Reed claimed he was being forced out of the position by B-CU. The post was accompanied by a 15-plus-minute video depicting Reed ranting about the situation at a podium.
That seemed to build upon a longer statement released through Reed's foundation on Twitter in which a contract disagreement between the two parties was to blame for the rift. “It’s my desire to not only coach football, but to be an agent of change that most people just talk about being,” it read. “However, after weeks of negotiations, I’ve been informed that the university won’t be ratifying my contract and won’t make good on the agreement we had in principle, which had provisions and resources best needed to support the student-athletes.
"I was committed to coaching and cultivating a relationship with the university, players, community and the fans. It's extremely disappointing this won't be happening."
