Volunteer at Florida Gulf Coast University Football Club Sends 100 Offers, Without School’s Knowledge

Florida Gulf Coast University does not have an NCAA-sanctioned football team. Instead, they have a “football sport club,” run by student club members.

That fact, however, didn’t stop one volunteer with the football club to extend more than 100 offers to students across to the country to come to play football at the school, without FGCU’s knowledge.

"Unfortunately, we have been notified that a non-employee, volunteer with the football sport club has extended 'offers' to come to FGCU and play football to more than 100 individuals across the country," the school said in a statement Wednesday.
