Coach Flowers Steps Down from Fort Valley State

FORT VALLEY, GA – Fort Valley State University Athletics Director Dr. Anthony Holloman announced Saturday that head football coach Maurice Flowers has resigned his position to pursue another career opportunity.

“My sincere thanks to President Jones and to Dr. Holloman for their confidence in me to lead the FVSU Football Program,” Flowers said. “It has been an honor and privilege to lead the young men of the FVSU Wildcats both on and off the field. I want to specifically thank the players, my coaching staff and their families, the university faculty and staff, and the alumni community. Fort Valley State University is a great place to be, and I am confident success will continue.”

Flowers was appointed head coach of the Wildcats in January of 2020 and guided FVSU to a 7-5 overall record during his two-year tenure. He led the team to a 5-5 finish (3-3 SIAC) in the 2021 season, finishing fourth in the SIAC East. Due to COVID-19, the 2020 fall season was cancelled. The Wildcats completed a non-conference schedule in spring 2021 finishing 2-0.

Holloman stated that a search for a replacement will begin immediately.
