Bethune Cookman Students Protest Over ED REED Being Fired...BUT ALSO THIS!!!!!

Students at Bethune-Cookman University are asking leaders to restart contract negotiations with Pro Football Hall of Famer Ed Reed. The protest spilled out onto the street in front of campus. “We voice concerns. We send emails all the time. No response so this is what it has come to,” said student body vice president Janaya Jones. It came to that after the university broke off negotiations with prospective head football coach Ed Reed. This weekend, he said he couldn't sign his contract because they couldn't ratify the details of it. Reed took to social media, using profanity to criticize the physical conditions at BCU, claiming even his office wasn't clean. Reed later apologized but the university decided this weekend to reopen its search. While students are petitioning to bring Reed back, they say it's time they speak out too. “We have a voice and we should use that voice,” BCU student Tyrone Franklin Jr. said. Franklin is a quarterback on the football team, disappointed that the university dropped Reed.
