Great, Aggie Pride...

During my time at A&T, there is no comparison about basketball and A&T, we were unequaled!

Now looking back at the ranking...I would rank Norfolk #2, behind A&T...more impactful wins in the CIAA plus their success in the NCAA recently

I thought the very same thing when I first saw this list, too.

And I would have to go back and look at the stats, but I don’t see how Morgan State did not make the Top 10.

And there is no way in heck that you can leave Tennessee State off of this list! They were the first HBCU to win integrated basketball national championships, and they won three consecutive NAIA tournament titles back in the late 1950s.

Not sure when you were at NCAT , but since HBCUs were D1 programs Alcorn has had a better post season record than NCAT or NSU. Albeit both have more recent wins. ASU in 1980 were an 8thseed. Historically they they have wins over South ALA ( lost in 2nd red to LSU 98-88) ; 1982 lost to Houston 94-84 in 1982; ; in 1983 beat Xaiver in 1st rd , lost to Georgetown 68-63 in 2nd; in 1984 beat Houston Baptist lost to Kansas 57-56 ; ; 1999 lost to Stanford 69-57 ; lost to Siena in 2022
In 1979 beat miss state in NIT and lost at Indiana 72-68 ; in 1985 lost at Louisville 77-75 and 2022 at Tx A& M 62-74;
NCAT went to the tournament in 1982-88 ; ASU had 3 Wins
Tx Sou also has 3 wins but unlike Alcorns all came in play in games v NCCU MountbSt Mary and Texas A&M CC ; so I agree in the MEAC no could match the dominance; However, if you go back to the CIAA days...... that must be what makes NCAT #1

You get absolutely no argument from me about Coach Dave Whitney, the Norris Brothers and his Alcorn State Braves program.

No, the 16 tournament championships are all from the MEAC days. See link.
