We beat NCCU everywheree except the scoreboard. Dont distort it. We lost! That type of attitude is what let sorry coaches stay on board for longer than they should have been. A lose is a lose. Dont make excuses for them. We were not in the game after the 1st quarter. We showed flashes of being able to score, but then the OC got in his own way. What you can say is we have as much talent returning as teams 5 through 11 due to the fact that we were young and without a starting QB.

I THINK WE CAN GO AS HIGH AS #5 WITH SOME LUCK AND GOOD BALL PLAYING AND NO MAJOR INJURIES. HOWEVER, I THINK WE WILL FINISH 7TH INSTEAD OF 9TH. AGGIE PRIDE!!!

Hey yall....I was at the MEAC Press Luncheon yesterday and when Coach Broadway spoke he simply told the other coaches that "you'd better get us this year, because it can't get any worse". He kept things close to the vest and I like that. He seem to be setting realistic expectations for our program, but I know we're gonna sneak some folks this season.
When Henry Frazier got up to speak, the Central folks got up and did an "Eagle Pride" chant! They had about 15-20 folks there, all in maroon polos. To me Frazier seemed extremely confident...almost arrogant in my opinion! He was talking s%&t! They even drove their bus up from Durham...WTF! The rivalry with Central is getting ready to go to another level!
If we don't do anything, I want us to roast them birds this year!

. South Carolina State
2. Bethune-Cookman
3. Florida A&M After that the rest of the games are up for grabs . That is the way I see it. They put Hampton in 4 because of all their so called FBS trans fares. Aggie Monster (What you can say is we have as much talent returning as teams 5 through 11 due to the fact that we were young and without a starting QB. ) You hit it on the head. If we take one game at a time we'll do just fine.

"Athletically, we're closer to where we want to be offensively than we are defensively," said Broadway. "We are lacking a couple of big-play receivers and a big-time quarterback. If we had those two spots, we could survive offensively
That's an indication that he will find another solid QB and let him battle it out with Kindle. In addition a good transfer WR is a whole lot easier to find than 3 or 4 DL . We may even have those pieces already on the team. Its hard to know how good Wallace Mileces, Gould, and Warren can be since neither has played with a real QB.
Anybody get the feeling that Coach Broadway is just laying in the weeds . In addition nobody in the MEAC has a clue as to what we are going to do from a off. standpoint - which is a good thing!!!

No one has REALLY seen what Kindle can do. He hasn't played a down since 2009. He could have stage fright from being injured. Anything! I hope he shows people like myself that he is as advertised by his "fans", but until he does Broadway is and should keep thinking that he needs a big time QB and that he DOES NOT have one.
