That was the Aggie Livewires who executed the 07 HamGate game (facilitated by yours truly). However it's much different when the actual athletic department partakes in the trolling. I believe ASU should receive a fine from the SWAC office for that stunt. No fines should be levied ,and if his feelings are hurt now ,wait until he goes back to Tally, his old stomping grounds . Joe Bullard is going to drag the Sonic Boom ,and the FAMU fans and FAMU BAND is going to rip Coach Prime and the entire team all damn day long from right behind their team bench . You saw how they had some of our players wanting to run up in the stands to fight . "Welcome to Black College Football Coach Prime"

Alabama trolls Ohio State on its national championship game posterSDS Staff | 2 months ago Ohio State’s insistence on referring to the school as “The” Ohio State University is a popular target for trolling and trash talk. After Monday night’s 52-24 win in Miami Gardens, Alabama threw subtlety out the window with a day-after troll. As you can see in the image below, the game poster tweeted from the official Twitter account of Alabama football puts a strong emphasis on declaring the Crimson Tide “The National Champions.” It’s not just the official account getting in some postgame trolling. Twitter user @notkdk3 compiled a video of the social media reaction from a number of Ohio State fans before, during, and after the game, which you can view below. Unsurprisingly, the hilarious video features some not suitable for work language. UA now owns a 4-1 advantage in head-to-head meetings between the two perennial powers. It took six years for Alabama and Ohio State to meet again after the College Football Playoff semifinals clash for the 2014 season. It’s anybody’s guess whether the Buckeyes and Crimson Tide will meet next in the postseason or in the home-and-home regular-season series scheduled for the 2027 and 2028 season. The players and coaches might be different the next time Alabama and Ohio State clash on the gridiron, but the Buckeye faithful are sure to remember the trash talk and trolling.

LOOK: Ohio State football is still trolling Dabo Swinney two months after the Sugar Bowl blowout
Phil Harrison March 9, 2021 7:52 pm Some punchlines never get old. Especially when it comes to putting someone in their place like the Ohio State football team did to Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney.
You remember it well. Swinney couldn’t keep quiet about the Buckeyes not being deserving of a spot in the College Football Playoff — and we’re paraphrasing — because a global pandemic kept them from playing enough games. In his holier than though attitude, he went on a media tour continuing to dig himself a hole and railing on the program and team that would be opposite his in the Sugar Bowl. He even ranked OSU as the No. 11 team in the country, the lowest of any coach that has a vote in the USA TODAY Coaches Poll.
We don’t have to tell you how it all ended. Clemson got run off the field in the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans. What better way to dunk on Dabo than to whip up on the his so-called “No. 2” team in the College Football Playoff rankings.
There haven’t been too many eating crow moments quite like that one in college football history, and if you’re an Ohio State fan, it was glorious. Some OSU fans may have even reveled in that win more than beating (dare we say) Michigan, at least for one year, a year in which the Buckeyes and Wolverines’ contest got canceled because of COVID-19.
And that was that.
Well, maybe not.
The Ohio State Football Twitter account is still trolling Dabo and Clemson. In case you missed it, FOX College Football tweeted out the Sugar Bowl logo on Tuesday asking the question; “what’s the first thing you think of when you see this logo?”
Somewhere, the person behind the Ohio State Football Twitter account had to be virtually thanking the folks at FOX for the softball question. It was a simple two-character reply that will be sure to rile up the Clemson fan base.
“11.”
Yep. That’s all that needs to be said. We never really got the opportunity to hear Swinney say he was wrong for ranking the Buckeyes so low last season, and you can bet we never will. But we all know how this will live on forever.
Well played OSU. Keep it comin’.

Last one...
Hold on one second: Auburn trolls Alabama with 404 page Aug 15, 2015 Greg Ostendorf ESPN Staff Writer
There’s trolling your rival, and then there’s the Auburn digital team, which has taken the concept of trolling to the next level.
For fun, go to the official Auburn athletics site. Now try and find a broken link (which is extremely hard to do, by the way). If you find one, there will be a headline at the top of the 404 page that reads ‘Hold On One Second,’ followed by this message:
“We’re sorry but the page you’re looking for doesn’t appear to exist. Don't worry, we'll put one second back on the clock and you can continue with the links below. War Eagle!”
There's no escaping the Iron Bowl rivalry, even on broken-link pages, as Auburn displayed with some clever trolling of Alabama. Greg Ostendorf/ESPN.com Classic.
For those who live outside the state of Alabama or who don't remember the reference, it’s alluding to the 2013 Iron Bowl when Nick Saban challenged a play at the end of the game to try and get one second back on the clock. His plan was to then kick a field goal, but that plan backfired. Chris Davis returned the field goal 109 yards, and Auburn won the game.
Forrest Buckner, a recent Auburn graduate who had just begun working with the athletic department's digital media team, was at the game. He remembers the play, and he knew then it was the perfect moment to try and capitalize on.
A few months later, Buckner and his boss, Jason Matheson, noticed that the 404 page on Auburn's athletics website had not been updated since the new redesign launched in 2013.
“I was like ‘you know, it would be funny if we could kind of do something a little creative here,’” Buckner said. “I thought what if we did like ‘hold on a second’ because it was still very fresh in our minds. So Jason and I kind of brainstormed, and Jason designed it out and put it up.”
The only problem? Nobody saw it, not for a very long time.
“I guess we just do a good job and we don’t have any broken links,” Buckner joked.
Finally, this past Friday one of the writers for AuburnTigers.com tweeted a link that was broken, and it directed his followers to the 404 page. It didn’t take long before people started noticing the handiwork courtesy of Buckner and Matheson.
“I sent [Matheson] the link and I said ‘they found it,'" Buckner said. "He was like ‘yeah, it only took over a year.’ But it took off. It had the effect that we wanted it to, got all kinds of attention and got the rivals stirred up a little bit, too. It was good.”
This isn’t the first time the Auburn digital team has had a little fun with the play that has since become known as the “Kick Six.” The pregame hype videos from last year featured not just the replay but also a countdown to one second. And it was no coincidence that when the first rendering of the new scoreboard came out, there was an image of Chris Davis returning the kick.
When the 404 page was finally discovered Friday, Buckner admits that he was wondering if anybody was going to come by his office. No one did.
“It’s one of those things that’s all fun,” he said. “It’s just about the rivalry. I’m sure Alabama will have a few here and there. We just go back-and-forth, and if that’s how we can add to the rivalry in a fun way, we’re all for it.”
The Iron Bowl, there’s nothing quite like it.

I ain't mad. He's basically telling them what they need to have in place to have a top notch program (and not continue to be behind us and others). To me it's not much different than Coach Broadway saying that we would get whatever level of program we were willing to pay for. It's the truth. Coach Subway Hottub is saying he wants them to aim for better. At least that's what I got out of it. Coach Subway can have that conversation behind closed doors... That is what professionals do exactly that whole video was not a good luck in my opinion

"Welcome to Black College Football Coach Prime" Some of you forget that Deion Sanders has played and coached at the highest levels Texas High school, College & Professional . He has heard it all before. Do some of you honestly think a man that has played before over 15K to 60K or more people at schools like Denton Ryan , Plano and Alabama Miami, University of Florida , professionally in front of Philadelphia, Oakland Raiders just to name a few . Have any of you ever been to a Oakland Raiders or Philadelphia Eagles game and you guys honestly think that the tiny crowds in the MEAC and SWAC could get up under his skin REALLY.

It's not about numbers of people. It's about how. He could play Shaw University and not be ready for what the fans and the band come at him with in RDU. I think at some level he expects Black folk to be overwhelmed by his celebrity. He's in for a huge awakening, particularly by other coaches.

By the way 2 more JSU will be on the four letter plattern... the BIG channel too.
At this juncture unfortunately the Aggies are "out of sight" and therefore possibly "out of mind.
We all know kids today follow the what have you done for me lately attitude. Now us seasoned folks could possibly see past all the potential smoke and mirrors to the core of a program. But I tend to believe they will make their decisions sometimes on what is the the current trend and my potential exposure.
It's safe to say right now they are trending upward and receiving ALL the exposure and that could very possibly roll right into the fall season. I understand they won't get prime (no pun intended) Saturday slots but I feel as if they will dominate the Thursday night schedule.
Time will tell.
Key phrase here...
OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND

That will continue because his name is well known and undeniably popular. The only thing that derails that is losing.

OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND As far as I'm concerned, there's a pretty good chance JSU will lose both of those games (Southern & Alabama A&M) on ESPN. Won't be a good look. Also, I believe the SWAC commissioner has said he/they don't want Thursday night games.
