And I think saabman raises some valid points. Our AD is a white man in his fifties/sixties and he has been very successful, but does he appeal to LeBrons like FAMU’s AD might? Let me clarify something . I do not think the color of our AD has anything at all to do with Lebron's Appeal or not . My point was that LeBron and Paul's focus is more so on the HBCU Conferences and the programs in those Conferences and not so much on the HBCUS that have joined PWI.

Me thinks A&T is playing the long game FACILITIES FACILITIES FACILITIES! No other HBCU will compare students will visit and say this is home.

Did you not read the two lines "You do know that Endowment funds can only be used for the "Specific Designated Program's and nothing more" you only reinforced what I had already stated.

Famu Nike deal is pretty nice, and it seems like the whole athletic department did a 180 they’re super active on social plus I took a tour of the athletics page and I like how detailed and easy it is to use. Then I’m seeing they have a stadium renovation happening, not to sure what it’s supposed to look like but I’m hearing no more metal bleachers. All that has me wondering if we have a phase like this coming soon because with the success the school has been having the past 10 years all around it’s deserved to see some upgrades
