Coppin and UMES should try to get into patriot league. Howard, Morgan and Del St  should go to the Colonial or Atlantic 10?

It would be great to see UMES and Coppin State return to the grid iron as a MEAC football member.

I know they currently have a club team.

At one point Maryland State [ie UMES] had a really great football team.


yeah yeah, I know.. $$$$$$ ....but I'm just saying. It would be a great time if they COULD/DID.... das all

Since the MEAC has six members there will be five conference games and each team already has three non conference games. So they will have to find three more games.  Or they can play each other twice.

That's correct. You also understand the importance your schools play in your communities and each other. Black folks love SWAC and SIAC schools, thats why your attendance is so high.

“Delaware State University is a proud charter member of the MEAC, said Delaware State President Dr. Tony Allen to HBCU Sports via email when asked if there was any truth to the rumors. “Our University community is involved at every level, including our Athletic Director, who holds leadership roles within the MEAC and our Faculty Athletics Representative, Dr. Charlie Wilson, who will serve as the MEAC President for the next two years. Our goal is to strengthen a rich and honored legacy for new and emerging realities.”

DSU staying put!

Good for you, Hornets

I hope the MEAC can come up with a plan to reverse its current situation.  The K-Mart model of doing nothing doesn't work.

Not so fast


Within that same email, Allen stated that any additional questions should be directed to Steve Newton, the university’s head of media relations.

HBCU Sports emailed Newton Tuesday, asking if he could confirm if Delaware State had any discussions with the NEC or any other conferences regarding membership since North Carolina A&T announced it was leaving the conference in February.

“President Allen’s response encapsulates the Delaware State University response,” Newton said in his reply. “We have no further statement to make at this time.”

That’s not what I read. Sounds to me like they’re keeping their options open.
