You know it is funny to see how the white schools support their programs. My oldest son played LB at Michigan and the other day he hit me with something that upset me at first but after thinking about it I found it to be true. He said that Michigan fans will support their team no matter what. We can have a low year but the fans will be there they may not like it but they are their, But at Black schools they turn there backs on their team in a heart beat if they have a bad year, your posting this on the message board of arguably the most loyal HBCU fans on the planet? Michigan supports, but it dont stop them from talking trash either. just like us.

We are not far from a 0-27 streak. The fact that there is a message board at all should speak volumes about the fans of our program.

i've got to agree with haze and monster. i think we have some of the most loyal fans of all hbcu's. it wasn't easy suffering thru that 27 game losing streak. yet, we still averaged more in home stadium attendance than most other hbcu's.
in fact, i believe we've remained a top 5 hbcu in home stadium attendance throughout the entire 27 game losing streak as well as all of the additional losing seasons after that. i don't think a lot of other hbcu's would still be averaging more than 13,000 fans per game every year had they suffered through our losing woes...

Hell, we led all HBCU's in home attendance in Lee's first season. Aggies are the most loyal fans of any HBCU!!
Lastly, we should never be compared to fans from BCS schools. If you want to make an equitable comparison the hold us up to an FCS peer such as Western Carolina.

If you want to make an equitable comparison the hold us up to an FCS peer such as Western Carolina. Exactly, in comparison to other FCS teams we rank pretty high. Shoot, there are a few HBCUs that fare pretty well when you compare them to FCS only. Especially when you look at the size of the schools. So the "loyalty" statement(based on race) is completely off base. Especially talking about someone like Michigan. Tell me how much more loyal Wofford, Coastal, Western Carolina, Furman, or Elon fans are?

Look giving back to your school is one of the most loyal things that you can do. By that I mean to give money and time as you gentleman are doing on this page. To help make the program better. Just think of this if each A&T grad would give just 1 $ to the Athletic program do you know what we could do. I did not graduate from A & T I transferred to West Texas A &M in 1974 and played their but I give to A & T's program. Maybe I used the wrong choice of words and for that I do give my apologies.

My homeboys son plays at LIBERTY Univ informed him that VUL has Recruited a number of semi pro football players out of the Va,Dc, Fl to play for them this season. See /www.centralfloridatigers.com Also look at NC Tech for recruits (http://www.nctechtigers.com/) page.
