Harrell was let go after the Owls finished the year 5-7 and had a season filled with promise end without a postseason bowl game berth on Saturday. They lost to the 49ers on a 56-yard field goal with 25 seconds remaining.
An FAU spokesperson was reached on Sunday and said they had not heard of Harrell’s dismissal.
