"trash talk" is a major part of athletics regardless of which sport it is. whether it be football, basketball, volleyball, softball, or track and field, "trash talk" simply comes with the territory.
some may feel "squirmish" when they're caught in the trash talk cross fire, but that doesn't make trash talking amongst fans wrong. why do you think its such a priority for most aggies to kick nccu's azz every year, regardless of which sport it is? trash talking is what "rivalry" is all about. as long as there's no physical altercations or insults that cross the line, any form of trashing talking is par for the course.
some folk can take it, some folk can't. like they say, if ya can't take the heat, then get out of the kitchen. me personally, if a foe "disrespects" my alma mater, family member, or anything i'm passionately affiliated with, then i'm gonna fire back and its that simple and ain't nothing wrong with that...

We’re conference co-champs and Celebration Bowl representatives for the third year in a row and four out of the past five years of its existence, yet we have a six page thread talking about what FAMU is doing filled with insults and complaints. Whether you choose to admit it or not there is something very seriously wrong with how you view Ayantee if you find it necessary to be this worried about what any other school is doing. The facts are they have the best record in conference and they beat us head to head. They’re ineligible for a conference championship or any postseason play. They choose to celebrate their accomplishment with a mislabeled announcement calling themselves conference champions. They aren’t conference champions. Therefore WHAT DOES IT HAVE TO DO WITH US? Y’all folk have an inferiority complex, period. I don't see your point, is it because it's FAMU? What's wrong with insulting and complaining about FAMU's actions? Does NCCU get a pass next? Are we gonna start doing something different because it's FAMU. Do you think this would be different if any other school had done this, and then came on this site to persistently defend the indefensible? Which is the reason for the page count. What other school would do something this classless? FAMU deserves all the complaints and insults they get. I think everybody applauds them for celebrating a successful football season, that's not the issue. They could have easily chosen not to use the "conference champions" title, that's the issue. What you see as inferior, I see calling a spade a spade! What do you think rings or crowns? After all nothing is over the top for conference champions (lower case)!

What I think is so interesting is in the age of Trump it's now okay to make stuff up and get indignant when folks call you on it. FAMU knew folks would call them on their self-proclaimed "conference championship" but like Trump, they didn't care.

Time to let this BS go Gentleman because to most of the fans NO ONE REALLY GIVE A DAMN . Let FAMU think what the like because in the end A&T will think what A&T likes and the majority people really don't give a damn . Aggie Pride.

Like striking while the iron is hot and enticing donations? I agree All of our programs and administrators should strive to be creative in getting fans to invest and believe in a product.

They still would've done this. All we had to do was to stop that miraculous 3rd down pass in OT and this would've been a moot point. Oh well...

When you don’t handle your business you leave doubt. At first I was like that’s ridiculous but if they can have a straight face and say it then them claim it...BSU can make a claim, and the CB winner can make a claim. As long as we have met our 2019goals to be MEAC champ and get back in the celebration bowl I’m good. I know I wouldn’t want A&T to do such a thing...claim to be HBCU National Champs...the have to watch another team play in the CB.

saabman . I don't think most Aggies would crown themselves as National Champions if we were deemed ineligible (or deemed ourselves ineligible) from jump street. It's a matter of integrity and the kind of example you set for students and student-athletes. Otherwise, what's the point of sanctioned rules and regulations, you simply run a program that ignores practice limits, academic and recruiting standards or better yet even pay kids to come play at your school. The hypocrisy reveals itself when FAMU made a character move and said we will show we are contrite and want to run a reputable program by voluntarily putting themselves on probation. Now you want to disregard that mea culpa. It's a straight classless move but it is making for a great rivalry!

People stop it! Stop bemoaning and talking about maybe they should celebrate. Have any of the conferences that most of you admire, done anything like this after being sanctioned by the NCAA? NO! The NCAA and especially the WEAK MEAC should put an end to this minstrel show buffoonery by threatening additional sanctions. Its an affront to all HBCUs for a brother or sister institution to behave in this manner. If anything, BCU should claim the HBCU Football Championship of Florida. Stop posting about that "Steppin Fechit" school.
