FAMU to the SWAC....

[Voice of Reason]

Remember you can extend an offer knowing the party whom the invite is given has little to know way of adhering to the rules and guidelines of said offer. “Offer in name only”....

I read somewhere where the MEAC commish was heated.... and he plans to call in on the comments part of the Board of Trustees meeting today with some numbers showing that FAMU has misinformation (i guess its about the conference money comparison)

Neither of those D2 schools have the finances or the time to move up to D1

I think albany state is probably the only viable DII option.

 

[Raoul]

FUGG them .... let them stay in their conferences.... we dont need no raisins in our potato salad!

Raisins in potato salad? !!---%&* what da hell

Albany isnt doing anything without Fort Valley.

He know the MEAC fate is over if FAMU leave.

Is the MEAC commish gonna cry in the car?

At least FAMU is going to an HBCU conference

It doesn't mean that they will stay there. They have already included a pathway to leave if they think a better opportunity arises. They can leave without penalty within the first five years. They tried to leave the MEAC several times.

The Athletics presentation at the Board of Trustees meeting just started

That is not the point

In looking at FAMU's presentation they did embellish a few things lol. But hey I want them in the SWAC so it's all good.

Let them. If its only for a few years, it will be a cool few years.

These MEAC refs gon try to give us the business this season...

 

[Miles’ dad]

Well, it’s going to the board meeting tomorrow. I wonder what other three teams are leaving the MEAC also.

 

[JROCK]

The Special Committee (FAMU) endorsed the move with a few caveats. It is not a done deal yet but it is looking promising.....

 

[dieharddawg]

Probably FAMU, BCU, and SCSU

Maybe you did not understand the point.

 

[THEESwacProphet]

Welcome to the swac famu. It’s pretty much a done deal.

 

[FAM4lyfe]

Probably FAMU, BCU, and SCSU

Maybe...maybe more

 

[Bulldog Fever]

I’ve been wanting to see AAMU and FAMU play each other for the longest. The last match up between the two schools was before FAMU left the SIAC, and I wasn’t even born yet. I guess it’s finally going to happen! lol

You are right, but I always wondered if Tuskegee had the power to get it together and transition to the SWAC.

Tuskegee dont have the power to get lights on its football field.

My second question, does the FAMU alumni base travel? If they do get ready when you come to Lorman, it will be a one of the toughest road trips in HBCU. We are only nice to the SU fan base because they tailgate like we do and it’s a big party on game day.
