On a side note , the video screen has been replaced . The graphics are much improved ,it's like going from watching an old style analog tv to watching in 1080 high definition . The only issue is they had to take off the Aggie paws on the side to make the change and they have not put them back on .I hope they can get this done by Saturday . lawd!! i'm praying that they'll put the aggie paws back on the scoreboard!! to me, that was the best thing about aggie stadium that no other hbcu in the country had. it definitely imposed the "intimidation factor", especially at night. matter of fact, i haven't even seen any pwc's with anything similar to the aggie bulldawg paws that wrapped around our scoreboard. i know the high def screen looks a lot better than the standard screen, but i rather have the standard screen if it means getting rid of the aggie paws in order to have the high def screen... umm, no . The board was looking really 1990ish as far as quality goes. It had to go. I went to a track meet this past season and was almost embarassed at the quality.

Man, we definitely need help with all our online information...website and social media. When I find A&T sports information I try to share it with Aggies through social media but we need someone that has this as their responsibility to do. As for being on site, if you get the access codes from the A&T Athletic Department, you can make changes from your local Starbucks! Do you even check the athletic social media (Instagram & Facebook) sites cause, they are updated almost daily?

Man, I'm hoping this works out. I have to depend on the radio broadcast sometimes as much as I bounce around. I was really looking forward to...oh nevermind. On a positive note, I'm curious to see this upgrade to the scoreboard you guys have mentioned.

Interesting that wpetam950 is owned by Entercom which owns SEVERAL radio stations in Greensboro. GREENSBORO, NC Greensboro, NC Big Weal Gospel WEAL 1510 AM Gospel Live www.1510weal.com Get Greensboro, NC 102 Jamz WJMH 102.1 FM Rhythmic CHR Live www.102jamz.com Get Get Go Go Go Greensboro, NC 93.1 The Wolf WPAW 93.1 FM Country Live www.931wolfcountry.com Get Get Go Go Go Greensboro, NC WPET 950 AM WPET 950 AM Gospel Live www.wpetam950.com Get Go Greensboro, NC 97.1 QMG WQMG 97.1 FM Urban AC Live www.wqmg.com Get Get Go Go Go Greensboro, NC 98.7 Simon WSMW 98.7 FM Adult Hits Live www.987simon.com Get Get Go Go Go They should have fought like hell to get the games on any one of those FM stations! I've been a part of that fight down here while at FAMU, and WQMG or WJMH would have worked well for Aggie games. It's gonna be rough selling advertising on that station with night games on the schedule, IMHO. There was no way they'd cut out time on WJMH for A&T football, as it is THE Hip-Hop & R&B station.

i didn’t hear the entire game, but i thought the announcing crew did a good job. donal ware will “wake yo azz up”! talk about excitement? this dude’s middle name should be “excitement”! man, he really turns it up when a&t makes a big play!
i like the new crew, a little bit of the old, a little bit of the new. i like it! heck, ware may get a little too excited at times, but at least i can “clearly” understand every word he says...

Thanks for the critique of the new radio crew, OSA. I was wondering how they did.
