I like Frederick, but I believe it is time for new and fresh vision at HU.

We said that after Swygert and got a true dud in  Ribeau.

Exactly! Dr. Frederick may not have done everything the way folks may have wanted. But we can clearly say that what he’s managed to do during his tenure at Howard is nothing short of amazing. I wish he could’ve stay on for a two year extension to manage a bit more of this new construction. But with all that gone on, I’m sure he didn’t want to be the President who killed the MEAC and dropped the mic as he walks out the door.

As soon as I saw MSU hire coach Wilson, I knew the band was getting back together. With the development and push to R1 status Morgan State is in prime position for success.

I remember many people saying that this wouldn’t work. Glad that this worked.

Looks like they are going all in on that move to D1. Just have to see who the second team will be.  It’s great to see an administration make an aggressive plan and act fast on it.

Ramese, I hear that...and good points.

And I've always thought if any school left the SIAC for D1/FCS that it would be Albany State and NOT one of the smaller private SIAC teams. 

So if it doesn't make sense for yall...IJS.

Very true, ASU would definitely boost the level of competition is baseball in the SWAC East.

Yes, I thought I had died and gone to hell.  Now, that is hot in Bama.

Most teams play day games because we are able to get more fans out. I'm sure that if TU was to get the scholarship dollars associated with the move to D1, I'm sure that they'd be able to ramp up their facilities fairly soon after.  The big thing would be the national exposure that could drive an increased student body population.

If TU could go SWAC East with SC State or Albany it would make for a very interesting situation.  The furthest travel within the SWAC East would be 5.5hrs (Orangeburg, SC).  But we all know that until we see a few facility upgrades this is looking like wishful thinking.

East:

BCU
FAMU
AL A&M
AL State
SC State / Albany
TU
JSU
