I guess there is two things to look at from this situation.  #1, is it worth alienating the culture and not playing a D2 school like FAMU did (Albany State) since this was a factor the hurt the strength of schedule according to the committee.  We know that this game was a significant financial boost for ASU.  #2, Will the new SWAC scheduling model allow for greater chance at post season representation.

When your athletic department is run as its own businesses separate from the school you can make power moves like this. Texas A&M will end up keeping Jimbo for two more seasons and move on to the next hot name and pay him out.

The SWAC needs to continue to drive more money through their revenue sharing model and have member schools put it directly back into operations.  I know it may be far fetched, but I would love to see revenue and expenses at a minimum of a school like Louisiana-Monroe and the SWAC move to FBS football in 2032.  Coach Prime may be gone, but his impact would've been felt.

The SWAC is looking solid in out of conference play so far. Hopefully, as a conference they are able to pull a few more out before the end of the month.

If Howard wins out the MEAC is in real trouble. Based on the model FB and Men’s Soccer had the toughest road to build out and would supposed to be the last teams Under AD Davis’ leadership to win. With that said, Larry Scott and his crew seem to have found a way to be competitive and this upcoming game would be a huge statement.

I hope that as soon as the team is sold and announcement is made to move the team back to a new 65k seat dome at the RFK site.
