What channel was/is the jstate game on? Fort Valley vs Tuskegee on ESPNU at the moment
The JSU vs. FAMU game was on ESPN2. The TSU vs. Grambling was on NFL Network.
Damn... I missed that first one... Just tuned in to the TnSU-Grampax game... I like Bethune joining the SWAC, but in a perfect world I would've preferred TnSU... That move could've pushed jstate to the West... Woulda shoulda coulda
The helmets clean but I can only imagine the displeasure and grumbling from Jaguars if Southern EVER made a drastic change to the unis

You a real one... Preciate this
Yeah man. I love watching out schools compete. I went to a CIAA school so our games are not really televised, but fuck that, I am HBCU till the day I die..lol
Absolutely I love everything about HBCUs... Heavy competition amongst all HBCUs, but at the end of the day it's a true common bond... I've heard good things about the CIAA basketball tourney
Gon bring more attention and awareness to SWAC and HBCUs Coach Prime... So much overlooked talent
This. I rising water lifts all boats.
Prime said some good shit towards the end. He wants to send cameras to all HBCUs to document and give shine to all of the schools. I hope this happens. J State and SU would be a good place to start.
Yeah the CIAA Basketball Tournament is a major EVENT. It's lowkey like the Essence Festival or the NBA All-star game. It's moving from Charlotte to Baltimore next year which should be interesting lol
A lil history about the CIAA if you didn't know -
The CIAA, founded on the campus of Hampton Institute (now Hampton University) in 1912, is the oldest African-American athletic conference in the United States. It was originally known as the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association and adopted its current name in December 1950. The conference composes predominantly of historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) spanning the east coast from Pennsylvania to South Carolina.
Founding leaders were Allen Washington and Charles H. Williams of Hampton Institute; Ernest J. Marshall of Howard University; George Johnson of Lincoln University (PA); W.E. Atkins, Charles Frazier, and H.P. Hargrave of Shaw University; and J.W. Barco and J.W. Pierce of Virginia Union University.[2]
Pretty much every MEAC school started out in the CIAA. Many basketball players played at CIAA schools as well such as Ben Wallace, Charles Oakley, Sam Jones, and Earl the Pearl Monroe
It's definitely a market. I have told everyone I know about this and after people I know watched the North Carolina Central docu series on ESPN+ about their basketball program and going behind scenes, people are wanting more.
I will check it out
Wait wait wait
So is the Eagle-Aggie Labor Day classic (NCCU vs A&T) a thing of the past????
That’s not surprising
Furman‘s program has always had a higher profile
