I guess I am getting older. It was good to see Coach Hayes (A&T/Central game). It was a shame that so many Aggies don't know who he is or what he did for the football program.
I guess we will all be forgotten.

It's been 20 years since he coached at A&T, it is reasonable for people not to know who the man is. Especially the students that have graduated in the past 16 years. Should they give the man his flowers now; yes. Maybe name a meeting room/ locker room after him, absolutely.

That check looked great!!! Especially, with him being a NCC alum.

It seemed that the crowd really didn't acknowledge him. If you don't know, you don't know. |

I sat beside Coach Cal Ervin once in Corbett and did know who he was. We do not do a good job of announcing and recognizing our greats.
