Surprised, but not at the same time. They're probably banking on those who want to support HBCUs, but know little about them other than Deion Sanders coaches at JSU, will see it and want to support. Unless Charlotte has a big JSU alum base, which could be possible with it being a banking hub.

Truth be told, what was the driving force behind us getting so many applications? Probably all them celebration bowl victories. To be fair we would have to revisit the applications question again after Deion has been there a few years. What if Coach Wash retired in a few years and we plucked Prime from JSU 😂 Probably a combination of things, but those in charge have been on record saying that when the CB victories started, they started seeing an increase in applications.

Yep aggie252. And then the academics and endowment followed along with the new "Stu" and our T&F success. Maybe even some other stuff. 2015 was pivotal.

👀 Im too bias to answer this question, but I would really like to know which one high schoolers would choose. Jackson State had about 8,000 applications, we had 27,000. I was thinking about Football…My bad.😬

Yeah we went 5-6, but damn! He did not include the Big South in his calculation even with two HBCUs, but he did include the OVC. No respect, oversight, or incompetence.

Lol you can’t engage. That particular person told me that JSU is better than A&T academically, and that we were only good for engineering. He also told me that Jackson had a better quality of life than Greensboro because they have more clubs. DELUSION!

Indeed, let the numbers speak for themselves. As AGGIES I have found we are the University's harshest critics. We want our school to be the best it can be. Now if A&T ever dropped from the list as one of the best HBCUs in the county...Best Public HBCUs...or Best HBCUs in the state I would be very concerned. They can stay delusional if they wish!
