Our men's indoor program is national top 5 this week! Having been ranked as high as #2 earlier. So why do I keep seeing on social media Aggies bragging about us being the best hbcu?

Exactly, being a track power and competing on a national level with the traditional power schools is still new to us, We have to change the culture of the fanbase and get them to buy into the fact that we are chasing a NCAA Division I national championship in track and field.

a lot of folk don't even know how ncaa track team competition works. some of them don't even understand that hbcu's compete "independently" from their conference during the season. so it wouldn't surprise me that some of them think we only compete against hbcu's...

It takes more than 1 or 2 tweets/fb posts to educate our non sports fans.
Share T/F successes within your own Aggie networks. I do.
Days leading up to national, put on a strong media push.
