'He was not afraid': Tallahassee lawyer, former mayor Kent Spriggs dies

Longtime Tallahassee civil rights attorney Kent Spriggs – also a former city commissioner and mayor who spent more than 50 years fighting discrimination and racism – died Nov. 2 at his Asheville, North Carolina. The 87-year-old's death was announced by his wife, retired Tallahassee Democrat reporter Kathleen Laufenberg. Spriggs confronted injustice, even when it meant going head-to-head with hate groups, fielding threats or being handcuffed and jailed. Those who knew him say his intense disposition was rooted in a "take no prisoners" pursuit of the law. Some of his notable cases included David Roby Keaton, part of the "Quincy Five," a name given to five Black men from the rural city 20 miles west of Tallahassee who were were arrested for the murder of an off-duty Leon County sheriff's deputy during a robbery of a Tallahassee convenience store in 1970. The arrest sparked an outpouring of protests in Quincy and Tallahassee by those who believed the men were unfairly accused, according to a 2015 article in the Tallahassee Democrat . Keaton, one of the first to go on trial, was sentenced to death and later became the nation's first prisoner exonerated from death row. There were dozens more clients and

What is FSU's record under interim head coaches?

Rick Stockstill was named FSU's interim head coach on Sunday, becoming just the second interim head coach in program history. It is actually the third time the Seminoles have needed an interim head coach, with Odell Haggins doing so in 2017 and 2019. Stockstill will look to replicate Haggins' success in the role, but he wil have big shoes to fill. Haggins went 2-0 in 2017 after he took over when Jimbo Fisher resigned so he could take over the Texas A&M Aggies . He followed that up by going 3-1 in 2019 after Willie Taggart was fired, with their only loss coming to the No. 8 Florida Gators . The Seminoles won his first game each year, crushing the ULM Warhawks 42-10 in 2017 and getting FSU bowl-eligible. Their first game in 2019 was actually against the Boston College Eagles, with FSU pulling out a 38-31 road win thanks to some heroics from Jordan Travis. While James Blackmon led the passing attack, Travis showed what he could do with his legs. He led the Seminoles with 94 yards and two touchdowns on just three carries. Blackmon also had plenty of success, completing 18 of his 26 passes for 346
