Here’s a piece that I missed in last week’s New York Times, but it’s definitely a good read on how Joe Taylor is working to rebuild the tradition of FAMU football.

In some cases, one hymn at a time.

On the subject of faith, Taylor took the entire squad to church on the first three Sundays of preseason practice in August 2008. He established a chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and even created a gospel choir of football players.

“Two or three sing, and the rest hum,” he said.
