Gm Aggies----Can I be real w/o offending my fellow AGGIES??? I thought about our schedule for a couple of years now and since OUR program is still rebuilding and we haven't won a homecoming game in 7 YEARS shouldnt we schedule a "WINNABLE" game for homecoming?? Now that being said, I know we are obligated by our conference to play certain teams each year and a lot depends on what any non-conference teams can do as far as open dates on their schedules. I realize it is complicated because we normally have our homecoming in October so that limits availabilty dates for other teams. Being straight up, our program basically has a NCAA mandated "death penality" because of previous violations. My sources have told me that the NCAA took 2 more scholarships away from violations occuring last year under Wheels and Lee but that is on appeal. Originally we had 9 scholarships available for this year-less any red shirt academic props from last year-but that may be reduced to a total of 7 available schoalrships-less any red shirt academic props from last year. So, in essence, we will be going up against a lot the next few years despite our recent coaching hire.I have spoken about my concerns w/Hilton before the interim tag wa slifted and I plan to speak to him again. My sources have told me we have BCC scheduled for homecoming this year. I just think it is extremely important to get a"W" on homecoming SOON because what that weekend means for OUR GREAT Uninversity!!!!

Let me clarify the 7 to 9 scholarships that are available. That number is what we have available to us RIGHT NOW for 2011 and it includes the total from the team that are already on scholarship at the present time. PEACE!!!

Everything you just said AND the Furniture Market dictates when homecoming is going to be. Greensboro cant handle hotel reservations for both events the same weekend. So while playing Howard would be great. If the furniture market is that week you can kill it. but I'll take Del State next. They are just as vulnerable as anyone. |

I'm just mad that Sav State is not on the schedule
I think Howard, Sav State, Del State, A&T, and NCCU have new coaches and are all about even. One of these team will have a breakout season next year.

Yeah...that might be a pretty good prediction on the final schedule, Aggie911: Confirmed conference games against NCCU, SCSU, FAMU and NSU. Predicted conference games against Morgan State, B-CU, Howard and DelState. Conference games that have rotated off of the 2011 schedule: Hampton (predicted) and Savannah State (confirmed). Out-of-conference games against App State (confirmed), TBD#1 and TBD#2. |

I hope those contracts are Elon and WSSU. Believe it or not, Elon would be a very winnable game for us in 2011. They lost so much talent and got a new coach.

If Broadway stays to his normal pattern, we'll find someone to open with that will be a walk over to see what he has to work with talent wise and get the kinks out with a new set of players in his system as he did at both GSU and NCCU.
