Mr. Hilton,
1.Can you speak to the corporate sponsorship or lack there of for Aggie Athletics? Why are we seeing more signs, corporate giveaways etc.
2. What is the thoughts/ ideas do you have on funding our Olympic sports?

There are 6 courts directly behind the fitness center as well as moore gym which regularly has open court. If we want to be taken seriously we need to seriously look at our questions before we pose them. I think there are 3.

Mr. Hilton,
Where are we on the press box construction? It seems to have slowed to a snail's pace. Not knowing details, we should use some leverage with the construction co to get this thing done.

AD Hilton, During the NCCU game, please take a few minutes to listen to the A&T radio announcers. I realize you have bigger problems to solve but add them to your list. Next year the A&T football program will be one of the best in the region but to the folks listening to our radio broadcast, we will still be joke. We need to upgrade the entire program. Hire some "professinal" sports announcers and add a pregame show. If we are going to create a buzz about the team and sell more tickets, this is one our best marketing tool. The current program is turning off more fans than attracting them. Go Aggies!

yes, i agree, let's do something about our radio crew in a respectful way. and if our football program takes a turn for the better on a consistent basis, i'd also like to see the aggie football coach's show return to television in the triad tv market and cable tv...

Back in the "day", coach Howell had a show on WFMY every Sunday night, hosted by none other than the legendary Woody Durham. They even use to show the old reel to reel highlights. It was actually a really good show. Hopefully we can bring something like that back.

Hopefully we can bring something like that back. yep, i remember that show too and coach hornsby howell having his own program. but was it actually woody durham himself that hosted that show? could've been because as i remember, it definitely was a very well professionally produced tv program...

Why not let the Communication majors do the sports announcing?

Why not let the Communication majors do the sports announcing? Great Idea!!! My daughter majored in Communications while at A&T and had a musical show on WNAA during her senior year. She enjoyed it and benefited greatly from it. I believe several current-day Communications majors could benefit greatly by assisting with the broadcast of our football games.

A&T has plenty of sources on campus that we do not use. There's no excuse for Aggie Athletics to not be marketed to the public. Graphic Communication and Broadcasting majors are capable of creating posters, flyers, web designs, advertisements, shows, radio commercials, and television commercials to advertise the athletics depart as well as the university. Other universities don't even offer these majors and have these marketing methods in use.

It would open up the Field for them and would also look good on their Resume and could apply to their internship for credit . I f we have the resources why don't we use them??? That free man power that's not even being taped in to.

For our sporting events, someone or a small group should be using social media to not only announce games/scrimmages etc....but to also give periodic game updates.....DSU, MSU, Hampton etc do a fantastic job with letting their followers know how the game is going via twitter....
