Nah, it was a bit too hot to bring the little dude out there. I passed by the stadium on Saturday and it looked like there was a pretty good turnout.

THE MESSAGE HAS BEEN DELIVERED... WE HAVE GOT TO BEAT NCCU!!! don't let this little skirmish scare you administration.... use it to make this series the hottest ticket on the face of the planet!!!.... DAMN.... SOMEBODY GO FIND DON KING... Vince Mcmann.... Jesse "The Body" Ventura... or somebody who knows what the hell they're doing.... don't let the fires get cold!!!! CAN SOMEBODY SAY..."MAKE MONEY MONEY MAKE MONEY MONEY HEY!!!!
BOY.... WHAT A GAME!!!! even in defeat i have to give the kids their props... they played like true warriors... we just have to eliminate bone-headed penalties & costly turnovers.....& guys especially miller.... don't go into a fight without a helmet... now that's stupid... it's like bringing a knife to a gun fight... but i admire your heart!!!
to the players & coaching staff... you have to just keep working hard towards perfection.... play wiyh the intensity in the nccu game each week.... stop with the foolish penalties & you will be taking that 1st step to success!!!!
also coaches... you have to come up with off. schemes to make the def. have to guard an area.... & if they don't... make them pay.... example... when #11 & 13 for nccu kept blowing by our tackle sacking morgan after we had gotten in the red-zone... we should have ran a play to make those guys pay for being so aggressive... like a swing pass to speedy in the flat or screen to speedy... they were set up for something like that at those moments.... we have to do a better job of taking what the defense is giving us & burning them with it... stop trying to force a square peg into a round hole....
to sum up what i just said... don't give up... in the words of jimmy "v" "don't ever give up"..... people may call us losers... but they should never be able to call us quitters!!!.... play hard & smart.... everything else will fall in place... confidence will take over then......
AGGIE PRIDE!!!!!

HERE IS SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE..... it seems morgan has extended ely's contract... a smart move??? not really... they didn't do him nor their football program any favors.... here is another hbcu mess... of decision making at it's finest.... now get this... they extended it for 1yr.!!!! what a joke....
i don't know morgan's budget but ely has had some competative teams.... i doubt there are many coaches out there who could do a better job at morgan than what he has... with the resources he has to work with.... if the folks at morgan really cared about the kids or even cared about their football program they would have given him 4 more yrs... that would show potential recruits the stabillity in the program... & if the powers that be really cared about the program & it's future success... why don't you increase the recruiting budget... get your scholarships up to the max... find money for your asst. coaches... you know... do the things that the teams you see ranked in the top 10 each yr. do... WHY DON'T THEY DO THESE THINGS.....
BECAUSE.... it's easier to handcuff your coach & kill the program than it is to work with the coach to help him be successful... these "phd" people running hbcu's athletic dept. never cease to amaze me.... it gives a whole new meaning to what phd stands for.... PROFFESIONAL HIRED DUMMIES!!!!!

homecoming was off the chain...!!! i had a great time seeing old friends & mingling with the new generation... my one question is.... what happened to the parade... ![???](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) it is getting worst each yr... & the problem is there are no bands in the parade outside of us & the alumni band... all you see are cars & motorcycles.... what happened to the days when there were lots of bands in the parade... even the visitors team band used to march in our parade... i don't know how a&t lost their marching band support... but somebody needs to get the bands back... give them a ticket to get in the game... let them dine in the "cafe".... OR SOMETHING.......!!!!!! BUT PLEASE....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....... GET THE BANDS BACK IN THE PARADE.........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From what I understand the entry fee has turned a lot of bands off in addition to not getting free admission to the game as as they did pre-Todd.

From what I understand the entry fee has turned a lot of bands off in addition to not getting free admission to the game as as they did pre-Todd. we have to get back to doing things 1st class & give these kids a great experience for visiting a&t.... hey... a lot of these kids are possible future students.... do the following: 1) get the bands back in the parade... 2) feed the bands... how hard is it for them to eat in williams... you are already cooking... just let them come in & eat... 3) the way the streets are blocked off... for bands who want to perform they could do it on lendsey near laural...or they could perform on the practice field behind the stadium... 4) let the bands in the game... all they want to do is see half-time anyway... 5) something has to be done because our parade is becoming dry... & we had the best parade around at one time.... 6) & if possible get the visiting teams band back in the parade... man... i used to love seeing howard's band in the parade... just think of the buzz that would have been created if bcc's band was in the parade!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
