Albany State Coach Apologizes for Offer to QB Who Used Racial Slur

Albany State football coach Quinn Gray has rescinded an offer that he gave former Florida commit Marcus Stokes and apologized for recruiting the quarterback in the first place.

Gray’s decision comes after the Gators withdrew their scholarship to Stokes back in November when a video surfaced of him using a racial slur while singing along to a song in his car. Stokes had been committed to Florida since July but now remains unsigned.

“Let me start with a humble apology. An apology for not honoring the tradition and history of ASU and for letting many of you down,” Gray began in his statement.
