Howard wins, 27-0. 

Great student section and crowd participation.

Great atmosphere. Hopefully this trend stays this way. Later starts are always going to be better in DC.

Definitely looks like Coach Scott and his staff and putting together a solid group of back-to-back recruiting classes.

Should AP make the jump and the OVC not become extremely active if seeking membership TSU needs to get on the horn with SCSU and make a move together to expand the SWACs footprint. 

Highly doubt it will happen though.

Sports Forum / Re: Commentary: What’s next for the MEAC?

« on: July 29, 2021, 07:04:16 AM »

What will a new commissioner do for a conference with Six schools? Schools left under a veteran commissioner am I right? Is a new commissioner going to raise money for other schools to build better facilities, become fully funded with scholarships, assist with a recruiting budget, travel and so on?

Someone answer this for me, why did we and others leave the MEAC?

At the end of the day the leadership must do what’s best for their respective institutions. To provide the best student athlete experience while balancing a budget. Over the years the cost of managing an athletics department has skyrocketed but the revenue distribution didn’t.  Pointing fingers at this point is too far gone. NCAT, HAMP, FAMU, BCU, SSU all made tough but correct choices to aid themselves. 

At this point I hope that the Bison squad and put together a little run and represent the conference in the Celebration Bowl for the next two years. I know our AD can find a way to use that  boost in cash.

i don't see anything wrong with what he said. he feels that he's competing against the best athletes in the conference daily so if he should have success come game day.
