Remember that there was at least 2 players there at that press conference so I'm sure they went back to the dorms with a story to tell after it was crashed.
Being loud gets things done people. If that man had sat back and accepted that crap it might have continued. He put it right in their face.

The kids that 85 percent are marching for free are selfish. Interesting Maybe it was a good decision. Because if those woodwind instruments get damned from moisture from the elements, who at a&t gonna pay for the repairs. Budget is already tight as is Ok…so they didn’t play because of concerns about weather damaging the woodwind instruments. That makes sense. Here's my "unofficial " answer... 1. Tropical rain during the week prevented them from practicing show outside. Remember their practice field is the mud pit parking lot behind the stadium scoreboard. 2. School was closed Friday so one less day to practice. (And they had fall break the following Monday and Tuesday) 3. Band students have been practicing and traveling solid for over a month...Houston, Charlotte and Detroit 4. While the team and fans have a bye week, the BGMM must prepare for participating in Disney HBCU week in Orlando. 5. They've been practicing 4+ hours a day since August, they needed a break. You can only push students just so far. Especially students that aren't music majors or getting any scholarships money. Otherwise we could end up with NCCUs sorry band! By the way, if you want to help pay a band students tuition go to ncat.edu and donate to Clarence L Fisher, Jr Endowed Scholarship. (Selfish Commercial)

Good Win. The goal line stance were great. We got stay ahead of team to win this year. Now Bryant could be our friend and maybe upset a Gardner Webb or Campbell. I can't believe I will say this but the Punter came up one with of the biggest play with that high kick when it was 14 to 13.

I thought changing QB after we put 14 points up was a major point in game Fowler was in a good place let him run the show until the game is out reach.This team is back doing Chicken lets run the ball to set up the pass.We have a Cohen ,Martin Hicks type of back in Tuten and Graves is a hard runner like see Dixion as well.The Line Play is Playing Lights out and the Transfer from Morgan is a outstanding Blocker he is a grown Man its time to set up our TE going foward.The DBs are better with a pass Rush McDonald is major for this unit. Punty and McNeal are press covarge types DBs let them play that way look back at our former teams they had press coverage type Dbs Mcain,Deloatch,Barnette comes to mind Lets keep running the Ball which controls all parts of the game..I ready to see how this plays out going foward Play the right way not Dumb Football..All Wins are good Wins..

If I can be petty for a second (speaking of unsportsman like penalties). Why would you give the Steph Curry 'put them the sleep' gesture in the 1ST QUARTER? Man, this TikTok generation can't help themselves, LOL!

OK, I didn't realize Disney was next week, BUT ...it's not like the band has never played in moisture over the last 100 years, that's why they have rain gear and covers. Support the team!

Who was that on the block on the defender that gave Fowler time to throw to Berkhalter in the end zone? That kid needs a steak plate because he laid his man out . Straight rocked him 💪🏾

I marched too. Call over and ask Dr Ruff that repair after the NCCU game in the rain. Band made a call in their best interest. It will be ok. Them not being there is not a statement of their support. If that's the case it's plenty of students and alums that need to do a look in the mirror for not being there yesterday

Wasn’t a such thing as a break. We wanted to be seen and heard everyday and every weekend. Kids can cry to their moms now though. And I wasn’t a scholarship music major but I definitely hated the spring when there was no marching band season . Guess these kids are different

Man, this TikTok generation can't help themselves, LOL! There is never an excuse but a couple plays prior they were talking bug noise to Tuten. He just let then payback emotions get the best if him. He knew right away he fugged up or at least his body language said so. Prior to this week I didn't see that type of regret after a penalty.

How long and when exactly will T be there?? As far as the game goes, I watched it online. I'm glad we won, but it was unnerving to watch for a good portion of it.

My wife is a former high school band director at 3 high schools. The music wing of a local Charlotte high school is named after her. Both of my kids were in HBCU marching bands. We have both donated to endowed scholarships at three HBCUs, and will definitely consider your scholarship and contact you via your Sales Institute email when our donation rounds go out in its next cycle. I get it.
I was merely asking if they were in the stands as a band last night or not.
