Not if he has the sense of a flea. He probably put us in his top four primarily due to the new conference affiliation. A number of recruits have stated as much. I don't think anybody under the age or over the iq of 50 has spurned us due to leaving the meac. Nope. Let's face it. The Big South could end up being a recruiting advantage, although SOME OF US will never see it that way.

It’s going to be very interesting to see how our football program reacts to being in the Big South.
Will we continue to evolve and develop the tools needed to contend for championships in various sports…or just “compete” and fall to the middle of the pack.
What will we learn as a program and as a school.

Dear Travis Shaw, If you read this board, please read what Nikole Hannah Jones had to say about her decision to go to Howard instead of UNC: “But I also get to decide what battles I continue to fight. And I have decided that instead of fighting to prove I belong at an institution that until 1955 prohibited Black Americans from attending, I am instead going to work in the legacy of a university not built by the enslaved but for those who once were. For too long, Black Americans have been taught that success is defined by gaining entry to and succeeding in historically white institutions. I have done that, and now I am honored and grateful to join the long legacy of Black Americans who have defined success by working to build up their own." Nikole Hannah Jones COME HOME BROTHER and "build up your own." AGGIE PRIDE!!! Freeze was this posted on his Twitter page or ig?

I think it can easily be argued that this is an introspective request for internal soul searching to attend a HBCU, maybe specifically Howard, until, "COME HOME BROTHER and "build up your own. AGGIE PRIDE!!!" LOL

What will we learn as a program and as a school. There’s a spiritual or chakra thing happening, with us right now and we have to act and act boldly, we have built celebrities, and or now attracting celebrities. Billionaires and Fortune 500 entities are handing their money to us. The blessings are with us.The one thing kids are in tune to is celebritism. We just added another one in JR. Smith! It started when Coach Washington went viral, Celebrity athletes quoted him, rappers quoted him, BRING ME MY MONEY! I WON, I’m the winner. These athletic and entrepreneurial kids are on that frequency, kids answers to that pied piper. It can happen!

Travis Shaw commits to UNC... but we were on the table in the Final 4. Two statements that he made stood out to me, , when he visited UNC, players showed him that they were dogs and they recognized him as one, they knew him and called his name!

That's because they all got the same bag!!!! $Bag > $NIL The young man said that he wanted to get away from home and I can understand that and wish him well in his endeavors although I don't rule out your assessment. It's been my observation that people that attend HBCU's develop an affinity for their institution that last a life time,especially A&T.That bond does not seen to be there with other institutions(non HBCU). Keep an eye on the transfer portal.

I don't think anybody under the age or over the iq of 50 has spurned us due to leaving the meac. ain’t got “nothing” to do with how much sense dude has, nothing whatsoever. the point is our “leadership” cannot sale (with integrity) the concept of “coming home to build up your own” to a black recruit when our very own leadership chose to do “the exact opposite”. certainly can’t lead by example, that’s for sure. now, of course our leadership can attempt to “mislead” a recruit to believe that a&t is all about “coming home to build up it’s own” even though it is doing the exact “opposite”, but that would be a very “hypocritical” and “disingenuous” sales pitch. albeit, i guess we’re pretty good at that though...
