Florida A&Mโ€™s Colzie to speak at Macon Touchdown Club

          First-year head coach James Colzie III of Florida A&M is Mondayโ€™s speaker at the Macon Touchdown Club.

          The club meets at the Methodist Home for Children and Youth, in the Rumford Center, at 304 Pierce Ave. It starts at 6:30 p.m. with dinner and the program to begin around 7. Admission for non-members is $30.

            UGA legend Kevin Butler is next weekโ€™s speaker, and then Army head coach Jeff Monken.

            Colzie was named last January as FAMUโ€™s 19th head coach, promoted from associated head coach and defensive backs coach after two seasons.

            He has Georgia ties, coaching at Valdosta State in 2007 and West Georgia from 2008-11, starting his full-time coaching career with the Blazers.

          The 49-year-old went on to work at Southern Arkansas, Simon Fraser, Coffeyville Junior College, University of British Columbia, and St. Maryโ€™s (Canada).

          He went 18-20 at St. Maryโ€™s in Canada.

          The Miami native played football at Florida State from 1993-96 and was a regular on the 1993 national championship team, and spent a year on the Seminolesโ€™ baseball team.

          Colzieโ€™s father is in the Florida High School Association Hall of Fame, and his World War II veteran grandfather was a Negro League pitcher who has a street named after him in Miami. His uncle played in the NFL for Oakland, Miami, and Tampa Bay.

          The 4-3 Rattlers have one Central Georgian, offensive lineman Ashton Grable of Wilkinson County.
