You got that right....just hearing that we will only have Hampton (conference game) and NCCU on the schedule is enough to make me start whining right now. For what it is worth we should play Jackson State at some point. I'll believe it when I see it...they gonna have to make an announcement and have an article in the newspaper before I believe any football games with HBCUs. I hate to type that, but that's how I feel.

Agree 100% We just need this clearly communicated to Aggie boosters and alumni on a regular basis because I guarantee they will begin to whine once we have only Hampton and NCCU scheduled. Perhaps we need to announce that NCCU contract and these other gems around Signing Day in Feb? You got that right....just hearing that we will only have Hampton (conference game) and NCCU on the schedule is enough to make me start whining right now. If the ASUN start football BSC will lose UNA and KSA providing opportunity for scheduling 2 more non conf games.

That would be awesome, I could care less about UNA or KSA, so if we go two more non conf games and played some regional HBCUs (NSU, Howard, SCSU) that would make me feel better about the move. At least the CB is still on. Guess I’ll show up in support even if my team ain’t playing like so many I saw at the event the years I went when A&T was on the field.

Playing there is will get our alums together and allow the AAF to recruit new members along with have a chance to show potential students our Aggie Pride. UNA I could care less about.

Just wondering will we get return games in Greensboro? If not, I'm not for all of this.

Just wondering will we get return games in Greensboro? If not, I'm not for all of this. Entitlement isn't fully deserved yet.... If we keep winning then sure our demands will be met with time. JMU agreeing to travel to a winning program that doesn't participate in the playoffs makes zero sense especially when they already come here to play Elon. At best we're a wait and see program to the rest of the world outside of the HBCU realm. Glad we're scheduling teams up front to show we're taking it serious.

I disagree, as long as you carry yourself like a second rate program, you'll get treated that way. We're catering to the white establishment when we don't have to. If NDSU and others from that conference (Elon) come calling, so should they.
