Aside from an undefeated season. I'm hoping to see a few things this year. Some are petty, while others are not. Thought it would be fun to share a list. - A flawless internet feed. I cant make a lot of games due to commitments so I rely on this alot. Please have it right!
- All away games at least have a radio broadcast. Nothing worse than not knowing what's up with my Aggies.
- No surprises about eligibility right before the 1st game. Players that have to wait 2 weeks, etc, etc. Please have that right. Its ignorant not to when you had all summer.
- Be competitive in losses. If we cant win them all at least be in the damn game.
- Eagle beatdown!
- Homecoming win
- BDF tent equipped with beer so I can argue with Oleschool standing over the cooler, LOL

Monster, I like your list but I've added a few additional items on my list: - Better marketing of the entire A&T football experience - Better radio announcers calling the games - People stop complaining about the "Fan Zone" and start enjoying it - Larger and louder crowds at all the home games - More fans wearing "Aggie Gold" to the games - An offense that has more than one scoring weapon - A NCCU beat down (I had to repeat this one) - Great half time shows by the BGMM and the Golden Delight

-I am hoping that moving Ricky Lewis to RB will allow him to have a brake out season like I know he is capable of. -I am hoping that no significant players get hurt before the first game (remember L. Kindle). -I am hoping the we show up in big numbers for the coastal game and kick that azz. -NSU people are talking sh#* about how they are going to kick our azz at our homecoming game. I am not hoping, I know we will kick that azz and shut them up. -I hope and pray that our kicking game improves. This is very important.

I am hoping that we have a successful football season with no more than two losses
I am hoping that our football players study hard and attend classes to improve our APR
I am hoping that they improve some of those negative changes that they put in place for Homecoming last year. They have just about ruined the GHOE with some dumb new rules
Hope we beat Everyone in football
Hope our attendance at games improve in all sports
Hope that we give respect and time to our new mens basketball staff to rebuild our team back to respectability
Hope that the new womens basketball team is successful and that the new coaching staff represents
Hope that our entire Aggie Nation is Blessed
Hope that President Barack Obama is re elected and that Black folks get out and vote for him. This race is important to us and the nation
Hope that all of our sports programs do well this year

I'm hoping for:
- Everyone returns eligible so next years single season apr score will improve - Everyone buys into the Fan Zone. - We sell more season tickets. - More Aggies join the AAF or contribute financially. - The field is kept in better shape for all those home games. Looked bad having a brown field for the NCCU game. - Would love to see more corporate sponsors. Hopefully the panels will be repriced at a more reasonable cost. - Have three 600 yard receivers. - Make at least 17 field goals - Cut down on average starting field position for opponents. - Hope to see an all out marketing & promotional blitz for the Thursday night game vs Morgan!! - Would love to see us beat Coastal Carolina to start the season off right. - An MEAC championship whether it's official or unofficial. - Broadway win MEAC coach of the year.

The hand he had to dwelt with last year should had made him coach of the year. To me when you get more and better talent Sometimes its hard to measure how good a coach is. But last year to get where we was with the same talent year before last except kindle was outstanding.

Hey Bigboy, if you visited the Sheraton Four Season during Homecoming last year you would know the changes that were made. Some I know were made for safety reasons such as the overcrowding of elevators. However, I did not see the need for armed security to be walking around the Four Seasons intimidating Aggie fans. We have been partying at the Four Seasons for decades and have never had a serious infraction. Aggie fans were pissed at this newly security show of force. That is why Four Seasons looked like a ghost town last Homecoming.

---A change in the way we give back (financially) to our school ---An agressive marketing fund raising campaign that elevates us to the 21st century ---A visionary-focused mentality in keeping the public (and supporters) aware of what is taking place in Aggieland in athletics ---Emphasis on the News&Record newspaper giving us more print time ---Working with the Sheraton Four Seasons in presentating GHOE where it can be more inviting and less restricting ---Get that Aggie Bulldog put back on the facing of the main enterance to Aggie Stadium ---A new design of the Aggie Football uniforms (it's a new day, sooooo new uniforms) ---A football season where we get the mostest outta our student-athletes (on da field and in da classroom) ---A LOUD and supportive crowd of folks at our football games (including the "gold coats" the reserved section on the home side) ---New radio announcers ---Pride coming back to our MBB program ---BGMM keep doing their thing ---Golden Delights not changing ONE dam-a-lam thang of what they do (yes,yes) ---Me hitting the lottery or a scratch off so I can pay off my mortgage this year
