New Era at FIU begins in 2025

The Willie Simmons era for FIU football is right around the corner with much excitement amongst alumni and students/fans with the things we've been seeing out of the program during spring practices. Many still have the Panthers finishing near the bottom of the table in Conference USA with Liberty and Western Kentucky predicted to finish on top.

The Panthers were able to get some notable transfers with names like Lamont Green Jr from Florida State, Aaron Armitage from Stanford, Dante Anderson from Florida State, Antonio Tripp Jr from Miami, Ajay Allen from Miami, Anthony Carrie from Georgia Tech, and Jojo Stone from Louisville. Let's take a look at the schedule slate for the Panthers to kick off the new era.
