(The chickens have come home to roost) as they say. The bad thing about this is Butch Davis gets fired from UNC and ends up in the SEC are NFL. You heard it here first.

HELL, BUTCH DAVIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIRED EARLIER. IF THAT HAD BEEN A BLACK COACH ALL HELL WOULD HAVE BROKE LOOSE. WE NEED TO SUPPORT A&T AND QUIT ADMIRING CAROLINA AND ALL OF THOSE OTHER WHITE INSTITUTIONS. THEY DON'T CARE OR ADMIRE OUR SCHOOLS SO WHY SHOULD WE CARE ABOUT THEM. I HATE CAROLINA BLUE, THE ACC AND ANY OTHER CONFERENCE THAT IS NOT HBCU. HELL, 20 YEARS AGO YOU COULDN'T EVEN GO ON CAROLINA'S CAMPUS IF YOU WERE NOT AN ATHLETE. THEY ARE USING OUR BLACK KIDS WHO DON'T KNOW ANY BETTER. THE PARENTS DON'T KNOW BETTER AND IT IS JUST MODERN DAY SLAVERY. CHECK OUT THE STANDS AT ALL OF THEIR GAMES AND THE STANDS ARE 95% WHITE OR MORE. SO, WHY SHOULD WE BE KISSING THEIR ASSES. THEY AIN'T KISSING OURS. "AGGIE PRIDE" ...

AMEN SAABMAN. THEY ALWAYS END UP ON THEIR FEET. WHEN A BLACK COACH GETS FIRED HE HARDLY EVER GETS A SECOND CHANCE. I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE HOW BRAINWASHED SOME OF US ARE. WE NEED TO SUPPORT OUR OWN INSTITUTIONS AND WE NEED TO EDUCATE OUR YOUNG BLACK KIDS TO ATTEND HBCU SCHOOLS INSTEAD OF WHITE SCHOOLS. THEY ONLY USE THEM. THEY BETTER NOT GET HURT OR GET INTO TROUBLE. THEIR SO CALLED CAREERS ARE OVER. THEN THEY TRY TO FIND A HBCU SCHOOL TO BAIL THEM OUT. CAROLINA, DUKE AND THE REST DON'T GIVE A DAMN ABOUT A&T. WE NEED TO QUIT GLORIFYING THOSE SCHOOLS. I KNOW IT IS HARD BECAUSE THEY ARE ON T V ALL THE TIME. IT IS TIME TO SUPPORT YOUR REAL INSTITUTIONS - NOW.

Well, I think the system is set up for our black athletes to fail. I won't lie, I like UNC, hell...a couple guys that went to my high school (Hillside) went there to play. One that got caught up in this NCAA probe is Greg Little (WR). It's a good thing he still got drafted. It's interesting though...they suspended half of UNC starters last year because they attended one of their teammates draft party in FL. An agent supplied the flights for them to attend so, the NCAA suspends them. Now, maybe I'm just biased but, the punishment doesn't fit the crime. I'm not even gonna mention how these institutions exploit these athletes...making millions off of them and turn around in the same breath and tell them they cannot take any money. There's definitely an imbalance. But, it's hard to tell someone not support someone who grew up down the street, around the corner or same school because they attend a PWC.

"AGGIE PRIDE" ... well, our head football coach happens to be a unc alum. i guess you hate him too. look, it ain't about racial tensions between pwc's and hbcu's. the time has long passed for folk to dislike institutions because of racial discrimination that took place several decades ago. as long as they no longer conduct themselves that way and they condemn such practices, you've gotta let that kind of stuff go...

About the dislike of the flagship schools, i think everyone has made good points. You don't want to blindly dislike a school but I also believe in once I am an Aggie, I am not a Tarheel or a Wolfpack and their alumni and fans don't even think about A&T unless the schools intersect in some affair.
There are members of PWC that do look down on A&T and schools like UNCG that refuse to play the Aggies on A&T compus. A&T is forced to play UNCG in the Greensboro coliseum for UNCG's sake and UNCG refusal to step foot on Aggieland. People couldn't get that through Dr. Martin's head or maybe he was forced to signed a 3 year deal with UNCG like so many of these partnership deals with them where A&T supplies the land and the News and Record incorrectly gives UNCG all the credit and incorrectly put their name first in the title. Opps, I digress.
Anyway, to hell with Chapel Hill....I'm kidding I hope they will only beat NCCU by 30 pts this year. ;D

I just enjoy good High school and College football / sports in general . To tell the truth I could careless for the Pro's until playoff time . Man I'll go to a pop Warner game before I'll go to a pro game. lol . Aggie1: I agree with your point. We do need to support the HBCU institutions and yes we do need to educate them about HBCU schools . But I ask you who's job is that to educate them My old man would always say (EDUCATION STARTS AT HOME ALONG WITH OTHER THINGS) and we do have a lot of Black/parents that attended HBCU school themselves that just do not won't their kids to attend a HBCU institution !!! They look at HBCU schools as a second option and that is just a fact :(I have had a # of my kids trans fare to HBCU schools both black and white but you know that I have more trouble with the Black parents then I do with the white about the schools that make offers (that I do not control) . Bigger schools like UNC and others systems my be set up for our black athletes to fail ?? That maybe true but you could say the something for A&T and a lot of other HBCU schools to, when you look at the APR and Retention Rates. Also they like A&T have a lot of STUDENT ATHLETES that succeeded ,, not so much in the pro's but in life . I will admit that I AM BIASED I LOVE HBCU SPORTS I SUPPORT OUR INSTITUTIONS THIS BRAINWASHING ONLY STARTS AT HOME !!!. And all institutions use their students to some degree in some form it's just in sports more so out front . (willie lynch theory is alive and working)!!!!

"AGGIE PRIDE" ... well, so much for the "racist" attitudes of unc. guess who just got appointed unc "interim head football coach"? Everett Withers chosen as Tar Heels interim head coachtaken from the raleigh newsobserverBY ROBBI PICKERAL - Staff Writer Growing up in Charlotte, Everett Withers daydreamed about playing football at North Carolina. Now, he's the Tar Heels' interim head coach. The school announced Thursday evening that Withers, the Tar Heels' defensive coordinator the last three seasons, will take over as coach following the firing of Butch Davis. The university will pursue a permanent replacement, but no timeline has been discussed publicly. Details of Withers' contract were not immediately available; the 48-year-old Withers will meet with the media at 3 p.m. today.

Everett Withers is just a pawn. Do you think UNC would put another white coach in that job after Davis. They are predicting that this will be a down year after all of the troubles the program has been through the last year or so. If Carolina has a bad year which I predict they will then that will make it easier to fire Withers and hire a high profile coach. They are just stalling until they get their ducks in a row.
Carolina is still Carolina - Withers is just being used. Wait and see. I wish him the best and I hope he is successful this year. However, he is the fall guy until the Calvary arrives.

"oleschoolaggie" - wake up. Once an Aggie always an Aggie in my eye sight. I have worked with so called aggies on my job and all they talk about is Duke and Carolina. They don't even claim A&T as far as sports goes. They don't even know when we have an athletic event. They know Duke and Carolina's schedules like the back of their hands. Exposure on t v made them feel this way about ACC sports.
They are turn coats in my eyes. You attend a HBCU school yet you worship Duke and Carolina. Brainwashed to the max.
If "Carolina" played the Klan I would pull for the Klan. No difference.

if withers has an outstanding season, no way in hail unc won't hire him. if for no other reason but to give the program some level of stability.
aggie1, that's venom on your part. if unc just wanted to use the dude, they wouldn't have picked him to be the interim head coach in the first place. i mean, there's far more ways of "using" somebody than picking him to be your interim head football coach. most coaches see that as an "opportunity" rather than being used. there's plenty of white assistants they could've picked. if they wanted to "use" the dude, why not just fire him instead?
i think hiring someone as an interim head coach is truly an odd way of using someone. if withers has an outstanding season, he'll have many opportunities elsewhere if unc doesn't hire him. and if he doesn't get hired, he'll still land on his feet somewhere. he's in a "no lose" situation as long as he has a respectful season...

"Oleschoolaggie" - I know Coach Broadway went to Carolina. He is one of the few Black players who was able to use their system to better himself. His credentials are better than Coach Withers who was hired as interim coach at UNC. Do you think if Carolina has a poor year in football that when they look for a new coach next year that they will consider Coach Broadway? Hell no and he is an 'alum'. Carolina's excuse will be as always - we gave a Black a chance and he did not produce.

Aggie1...does this rant of yours make you feel blacker that the next man that may like Duke or Carolina? Come on dude, ease up...people like who they like. If that's the case, no one should like the Redskins because they were the last team in the NFL to hire a black man to play for them. But they are one of the top 4 or 5 franchises as far as sales. Should blacks not like the Redskins?
