Albany State football coach Quinn Gray has rescinded an offer that he gave former Florida commit Marcus Stokes and apologized for recruiting the quarterback in the first place

Albany State football coach Quinn Gray has rescinded an offer that he gave former Florida commit Marcus Stokes andwithdrew their scholarship to Stokes

“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. “I didn’t uphold the Ramily standard that I know you expect. Please know that my decision to speak with a student that did not meet your expectations was unacceptable. I only wanted the best for our team, athletes, and institution when I invited the student to visit ASU.

“As I say to our players, “there is a consequence to every action.” The consequences of my actions brought pain to our University. I was trying to help a student get back in competition, and in my haste, I did not consider the impact the decision would have on all of you,” Gray continued. “Frankly, it wasn’t my place to use ASU as the platform for redemption in this case. I regret that I used flawed judgment. If given the opportunity, I will do better.
