We would have won the MEAC just like we already best NCCU and will be sc state next weekend, our talent advantage will overcome the undisciplined play. I'm not as confident about beating SC State as I was a few weeks ago but I think it's still a game we can win. If we win and beat the best team in the MEAC I think it kind of proves a point, we definitely moved up in regards to competition but I strongly believe they didnt take this move serious enough to compete here in year 1. I understand COVID but teams have figured it out, Norfolk is in position to steal the MEAC with a coach they brought in this offseason (IIRC) & folks hated on Tenn State but they've improved on their 2019 win total and conference record to my knowledge. If there is one year left on the deal then let it play out if we dont have the buyout and replacement $ but I'm not too interested in seeing the program regress further for another year. They just struggled with Howard. The Bison in DC Howard. We aren't that bad. We will win Saturday and then be the unofficial MEAC champs

No, and no…we wouldn’t have won the MEAC this year as well. These guys are extremely undisciplined…the beat themselves…everyone knows the formula to beat this A&T team. Stop the run and let them self destruct. It’s horrible to watch as a fan. At on that last scoring drive I wanted CSU to punch in in just to end the misery. A team should get better as the season progresses. Coach is gonna have to make big changes. Now as undisciplined and sloppy as we have played all this season, there is no way we wouldn't win the MEAC. In fact, we'd go undefeated in the MEAC this year. The "Elite Six" (as they call themselves now) are only elite because the big boys are playing somewhere else. And we still have more raw talent and better coaches than anyone left in the MEAC. I think we have proven this season, that we are still playing on the MEAC level but need to upgrade to a conference with better coaches and equal talent.

Our biggest advantage against SC State is they still have Buddy as head coach. Buddy was great MEAC Coach when he had the talent to beat folks up but in recent season, he has struggled. And like our current coaching staff, he's old school and very slow to make the necessary changes.

That was a nice Block by Baker and Wr Blocking well on the Edge Tuten would had scored he look back but what a talent that's his second Catch and run off a pass this year give him a few Circle Routes.. best call of the entire game.

Personally I don't think that we could evenly win the MEAC the way we have been playing .

"What I am saying here from this tangential pause is that we need to get of this scorch earth policy as it relate to the Coach and his staff. This is dangerous and disrespectful to the Team and to all Aggies. While we are upset with the results thus far we need to think deeply about what it is that is the source of pur discontent so much so that we are will to do a Sampson moment. i pray that the Gods of Football will forgive us of our foolishiness because we are in need of a revival." I'm kinda feeling that statement. I admit...I have been hard on Mr. Washington since he was named as HC. I didn't think that it was a "sexy hire" given I & others knew a fella who is an A&T & MEAC HOF'er down there beefing with Coach Prime wanted the job on the low AND that Mr. Washington was the guy players went to for consolation when Big Papa Bear Broadway got in their a$$e$. His "Players Coach" style & unswerving loyalty to those around him is a double-edged sword. Rather than find a new OC & DB coach & make desperately needed personnel changes on the field, he's "gonna dance with the ugly girl he brung to the dance." That's noble. But will it get us to where we need to be in the B.S.? I still say Martin needs to chat with Hilton who will then chat with Mr. Washington about what's gotta happen beginning 6am Monday, November 22, 2021. If he needs to feel a little heat emanating from his ergonomic chair in his office in the Bryan Center, then so be it. HEAVY is the head that wears the crown, & THAT'S THE PRICE OF LEADERSHIP! I like "The Revenge Tour-The Big Payback 2022" mantra complete with James Brown's "The Big Payback" as the theme song. I need A&T-Roy or Dooms to go on and design the T-Shirt! You forget that Maynor struggled at Hampton. No way he was gonna get hired. A&M went after him because they had little options and were on probation After we lowballed Maynor on years and then gave Broadway the deal he wanted , Maynor hasn't been concerned with us. And have u seen his Defense? Be careful what u wish for After the disrespect that Coach Manor gave Coach Prime he revealed his true character. Had he been the Coach rather Coach Broadway we would slip backward for a long time. Guys need to get off this coup against Coach Washington and staff for it is getting ugly which we do not need.

I really like our coaching staff but, if we cannot get the undisciplined behavior under control then, I say see ya. I can live with the growing pains of losing and winning ugly. I just don't like to see our team always engaging the opponent in conversation after every play...get back and get ready for the next play, I mean we aren't THAT good!
