Looks and sounds like ESPN has decided on picking HBCU programs with the largest fan appeal from a football, PR, and entertainment standpoint.

Yes.... also, each of these schools has quality HD scoreboards/camera capability at their football venues as well (including FAMU now that they've installed the old FSU scoreboard). That could be a partial factor, at least for the home games.

No matter what ESPN is up to, I'm glad we are getting some air time. I can remember the only way our name showed up on ESPN was when we had a fight in the stands. This may do more for our non athletic recruiting than for our football team. Either way, I'm excited.

I love the Thursday night games, especially when we play well.

Last year, it was early August when the football television schedule was released for the MEAC which was right after the MEAC Football Coaches Luncheon in Norfolk. So, we can likely expect the same timing of the announcement this year. www.meacsports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?ATCLID=210247101

Only one of those games is a Thursday night and from the info I received, the Norfolk game is on for that Saturday but would be tape delayed on ESPN 2, live on ESPN 3. We'll wait and see on a final schedule but we are tentatively scheduled for 4 TV games right now. Who makes that decision on which games are shown, ESPN or the MEAC or the schools

The individual host school reserves the right to either accept or reject the Thursday night offer(s).
