He better be careful trying to get those transfers.Great hire Alcorn. I have heard about Hopson's work from a few of my co-workers who know him well. I have been told that he is going to bring some talent to Lorman, but focus more on using his contacts to bring in SEC transfers, and JUCO stars from Pearl and MSGCC. This could play out very well and turn things around fast.
Some of you Mississippi people need to grow the hell up. This is a great day in HBCU history. Some of these comments are just sad. Alcorn made a very smart hire. Good luck to the Braves.
That's a little too much imoHe's getting $150k a yr.
How long is his contract? I honestly believe this is the coach that will be in Lorman for a while :tup:
Me too. Freaking sad day in SWAC history.......
Yall just love that skin don't you.......
I thought it was just me. They crying over this cat like he is the savior.
Certain parts of the sippi. This is worse then those mofos damn near throwing a parade because the state finally let them collect the gate and concession money during their home games.
I like your selection Alcorn I hope you give the white man a chance unlike like you did for Spears...He does not need your help with what players should play...K!
Look at how many jsu tigers are in this thread hating. This school dreams about us constantly. This is the same school that actually had a murder white boy as their starting QB. They are so scared of us being 'competitive'. We sorry in football and this is the type of response (hate) we get...wait until we start winning again smh.
As far as the coach...Congrats but I'll reserve judgement. I want to see if he will stay longer than a year here smh...so tired of this. Stay & build and then I'll say you are worth something.
He better be careful trying to get those transfers.
That's a little too much imo
Spears was mucking up and we got rid of his ass. Yall didn't like him at TSU and got rid of him. Didn't you say we couldn't and would not get rid of Spears? You are wrong again.
I read somewhere a while back that they won't be able to hire alot of assistants. How many to be exact?
Actually, the next HBCU president opening in MS will be Valley. I doubt they get a white President. Did you see how them ninjas acted when she brought in a white CFO from Edward Waters.
I hope JSU gets a white President.
They (Valley) won't know who the person is until the end of the process. And actually I am thinking it will be Valley.
Believe it or not, I think there is a bigger picture here that most are not seeing...
This is just the beginning of starting to transform HBCU's in Mississippi to be more inclusive.....
Hopson will succeed....The college board will make sure he has what he needs to succeed.(within reason that is......)
The state college board want this to work............
Once supporters at the three (HBCU)schools begin to accept change in the sporting arena then they can go to the next step.....
Watch how the next Presidency opening at an HBCU in Mississippi is filled........(there will be some "non-black" candidates for sure)
The president selection process in Mississippi is closed to the public, therefore the final candidate is presented at the end...
This is not necessarily a bad thing. Being more inclussive will allow some of our institutions to survive and get the enrollments
to where they can be self sustaining.
Just my opinion!
Remember this topic?

:shame:
If you think Ms. Valley is revolting against their current President now, you try sending a white candidate down there now. I don't think the IHL will do it but then again, I truly believe the IHL wants to try and close Valley or turn them into some sort of vocational institution.
This is my question to some of the JSU people who are upset about the white coach at Alcorn.....
How many white people graduate with PhDs from JSU?
My point is it seems bit odd that you will educate white people but become disgusted when one is hired at an HBCU.....
I keep hearing this same ole lie. How many JSU folks said they were upset about Alcorn hiring a White coach? Can you name more than two?
They joked with us when we had Casey, so we're giving it back to 'em after they hired Coach Bubba.
