Good question I heard about this on Google I think he is a analyst for Fox Sports

First away game Norfolk St plays, if the opposing team doesn't play who let the dogs out, they should just forfeit.

Why would anyone let this guy near young men? Id give a pedophile a second chance before this guy

He was a finalist for the Sac position. While I think that the choice Sac ultimately made is light years better than Vick, I'm still not happy with it....

I personally hope they do but if they don't it's their choice to be in the Celebration Bowl.

They could always get an at large bid, but the Celebration bowl is where they would want to be for the payday!

Personally, I would like to see the Powers at be get creative and let them play in the celebration bowl as a part of the FCS playoffs… and now the Ivy League will participate in the playoffs, so who knows what might happen!

I have never understood why HBCs segregate themselves form the rest of the FCS. I thought segregation was wrong?

I don't see it as segregation. It's just a $$ grab. And it's never been a complete Ivy-style thing; SWAC and MEAC teams who don't make the Celebration Bowl have always been eligible for an at-large bid, should the committee choose to award one. If memory serves, FL A&M was the last, but I can't remember the year.

Would you care to fill us in, dal?

I agree with you on this BOBCAT I don't think the SWAC&MEAC should have turned in their AQ status this is the only way these leagues can gain recognition.But I see why they pump up the Celebration Bowl because of the money grab.Both leagues suffer from a weak financial environment.Yes Florida A&M was the last school from the HBCU FAMILY that was a threat all the way back to the late '90s that was a threat to be in the FCS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME.I argue with ppl who are HBCU SUPPORTERS all the time that we need to support these schools whenever they play against NON HBCU BASED SCHOOLS.Tenn St is going to host FCS POWER North Dakota St next year in Nashville and everyone in the HBCU FAMILY should show obvious support for the Tigers.

The SWAC did not seek to segregate themselves playoffs were started on the same date as two SWAC schools biggest game.
Nov. 26 1977 Grambling 55 vs Southern 20
Nov. 27 1976 Grambling 10 vs Southern 2
Nov. 29 1975 Grambling 33 vs Southern 17
These games were played on Thanksgiving weekend before I-AA existed all were able to draw 70k+ in attendance

btw the SWAC is one of the 4 original conferences that started I-AA

Wished that you guys were still in the FCS PLAYOFF PICTURE.

You get no argument from me but they use the Celebration Bowl as a obvious sources of financial substance.
