Dude in Mississippi nobody cares about valley and I'm from Mississippi, Jackson to be excat. Valley gets as much coverage as txsu and pv gets in Houston. Valley should go d3 or naia.Politically speaking, unless the state wants to build Valley another campus on the east side of Greenwood it is a bad idea. Valley is less than a thirty minute drive from Delta State. The more they resemble the more likely they will become merged as one, and I'm pretty certain in red state Sip which school will be relegated to the history books. Too bad the state legislature acted in bad faith when it created Valley. If they were halfway serious Valley would have been located in or around Greenwood just like Delta State is in or around Cleveland. Greenville would have been even better.
Athletically speaking, I'll just say I hope the best for them. If at some point, they switch to D2 of their own will and accord, I hope my thoughts above fail to materialize.
I see you are one of them.Dude in Mississippi nobody cares about valley and I'm from Mississippi, Jackson to be excat. Valley gets as much coverage as txsu and pv gets in Houston. Valley should go d3 or naia.
I guessI see you are one of them.
Would you like to come on the show tonight to make your case? I'd love for you to come on.1. Rich coming from a school that has quitting on recent resume
2. As the commissioner said, if PV wasn't kicked out after an 80 game losing streak and fielding football teams with no scholarships, then neither should Valley or UAPB since those are the two schools dumb ___es love suggesting be removed
3. Delta State's enrollment has plummeted the past years due to them trying to be MAGA lite in the black ___ Delta and ran off the students. They've had to slash many programs in order to offset them bleeding money
4. Valley has scholarships and facilities on par with the rest of the SWAC but instead of highlighting this, HBCU Sports decided this was the time to make a dumb ___ podcast about moving down (and all the usual dumb MFs with a clear anti-Valley bias agree with it but have no problem twerking for "them" at LSU and NSU)

Man your budget is 4 Million dollars man come on.1. Rich coming from a school that has quitting on recent resume

So why is Valley in last place in every sport most years? Im not being funny… I seriously want to know… What is the problem?1. Rich coming from a school that has quitting on recent resume

I would listen, and I agree hearing his perspective would add balance.I would like to hear both sides. I would also like to hear the commissioner of the SWAC on this.
Exactly. If memory serves me correctly, PV had made a conscientious decision not to support athletics at the time. That is no longer the case. MVSU is simply over its head trying to complete as a D1 program in the SWAC.That 0-80 thing was YEARS ago. As of 2024 things are much more expensive and different as far as athletics. PV fulfills all of their scholarships, has an athletic budget that is comparable to most FCS schools, can pay all of their coaches, facilities top notch, has had winnings seasons, been to the SCG multiple times and even won the SCG. You can’t compare the two.
Serious Questions, can Valley sustain increased scholarships? Correct me if I’m wrong, you guys just recently got your proper allotment of scholarships for football ? With all the shakeups at the P4 & G5 levels, is Valley able to keep up with the eventual scholarship demand that will trickle down into FCS? Playing Money Games to help fund other sports only gets you so far. Do you think eventual change is putting you guys at an even further disadvantage? Truth be told, it’s not just Valley that will have to answer these Questions, I believe a lot of our institutions eventually will. Some of us will have to get creative and be even more self sufficient. MAGA ran states haven’t played fair with our HBCUs & they’re really not playing fair now. Just my two cents.1.

I agree Valley shouldn’t drop down. Budgets aren’t great a lot of places. This is the time we should be side eying our commissioner and asking why he has not landed us a forward moving TV deal for our brands that can put millions of dollars in our institutions budgets. We pay our head coaches some of the steepest salaries in FCS. It’s time for TV deals to help athletic budgets on the front end. P4 is doing it. I know we’re not them. But, we can be trend setters and get ahead of the curve in FCS. We have Grambling , Jackson , FAMU, Southern , & Alcorn these brands and fan bases alone are worth a lot of money we aren’t capitalizing on at the negotiation table.I'm from Mississippi and I think Valley should stay in the SWAC. They are a part of our history. Our budget at Grambling is not that great either.

Nope, I was told last night (by a SWAC coach) that the MVSU football team is currently playing with 61 scholarships (2 below the maximum) and has been playing with 58 for the past 3 seasons.Correct me if I’m wrong, you guys just recently got your proper allotment of scholarships for football ?
