I mean you’ve been one of the most critical of the coaching staff. So, please explain how it’s a reach? It's reaching because he used US . Is he referring to himself along with the ones that have been critical of the coaching staff and also because a person or group is critical of something that does not mean that they or Us do not feel and have faith that things can be tuned around . Faith and criticism are to different conversation all together. |

Faith and criticism are to different conversation all together. US means the faithful posters and alums. It's not 100 percent but we had a post about firing Washington. I personally have faith in Washington but People think A&T football has lost its way. That's what I'm talking about. National publications see our potential but we don't. |

Yes I remember the ones calling for Washington's head . My position had always been and it remains as " I have no problem with Washington but changes have to be made " if those changes have been addressed coaching, staff and player wise . I see no reason why A&T can not win the Big S***it . But I'm not a polls or rankings person . So for me it's a wait and see situation that will play out on the field . |

Everyone has this faith in us but us ...Interesting Us as in who ? Kind of reaching on this one Professor. The issue here is the use of the word "us" Me thinks "but some of us" would have been better. And I don't believe "Everyone" has faith in us. #WordsMatter |

The man did not have a running back and we are a running team. People just freaked out. I’m less concerned about the staff coaching abilities but I am majorly concerned about recruiting. . This has been very concerning to me. The SWAC is killing us and not just Jackson State the whole damn conference. Even the Buzzards out recruited us. We got to get this narrative together because we are outside the scope. I am hopeful we can make the case. But for those who think a PWI conference will enhance recruiting - tsu, Hampton didn’t even make the list and A&T was 9th out of 10. *HBCU game day
We are going to have to find a narrative that sells these kids to our school. Maybe winning the Big South will help but I’m not sure .. if we can’t get kids to come on the narrative that we have the best hbcu football program, I’m skeptical that a narrative of beating Bryant and Campbell will change that. But we will see. I’m very nervous and have been

But we will see. I’m very nervous and have been I have to disagree my concern is with the coaching and development and elevation of players to out preform the competition . Recruiting is about getting the players that you want that fit your system, not what or who we fans want you to get . Although I have my feelings about Washington and his staff . I think that he has recruited and added the players/talent that he and staff feel can turn the corner for has program. Now it's all about coaching . Also our record against the Swac speaks for itself and if SCSU didn't make the message clearer that you don't have to have a star packed team or a high recruiting class to beat a team that only is better then you on paper . It's all about getting the recruits that fit your system and Coaching them up . SMIB RESPECT. |

But we will see. I’m very nervous and have been Where are the rankings you refer too? HBCU Gameday is the source… and I know folks find solace in precious years of the SWAC .. and I would consider that argument if the SWAC traditionally out recruited us or the MEAC and they still were losing. But that is not the case. My whole entire point is that the game has changed and there is a shift in HBCU football, the mindset of players and for the past two years of recruiting has not matched this trend. And people may disagree, but there ain’t no way that if you are recruiting 9/10 in HBCU football are you even close to recruiting to be the top of the CAA. Period. Their might be a case for all that other stuff although there is less evidence. One season .. but this is two years in a row that we’ve been out recruited by most HBCUS and even in the state of NC we were out recruited by Campbell and NCCU .it’s unacceptable… especially when we were the #1 hbcu program and the #1 fcs program in the state.. to me this is a big problem and we need to start addressing it. |
