SWAC East Tiebreaker Scenarios| Has Morgan State Unlocked Their Offense?
Coach Keaton leaving the ATL for Del State… seems like a poor choice on his part. CAU is on the “come-up” in an easier recruiting location with low expectations and big time upside. Jumping to D-State would be a panic move… at a minimum, you’re retrenching and rebuilding 3 times in less than six years. Keaton has time and geography on his side not too mention he is playing with “Housemoney.” I’d go ASU before DSU…. In another year, BCU could be open and there is always Valley. Going to DSU would be wonderful for Tony Allen’s Hornets but a poor move for Coach Keaton.
Forgot to mention… Merry Christmas D! Appreciate your commitment to the space and to your craft!! Keep BUILDING “Mouf’ of da’ SOUTH!!!” 😊🫡😎
A Super HBCU Conference Conversation need to happen Immediately with Leadership now with Vick in Place. The Money & Value is there so it will be impossible not to profit from the move based on who's available. Ed Reed, Ray Lewis & Hines Ward is still available & there are Schools still needing Coaches. With these hires it will further Increase the Value overall for the new Conference in the FBS & they'll be able to negotiate Better Deals that will generate Billions! The opportunity is there but this simply come down to HBCU Leadership because they're the only Hold Up from this being a Reality towards having a Level Playing Field. All Eyes are on them!
NSU 757!!!!!!! VICK!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s time for our players to come back 🏠
I love your sweater. Merry Christmas everyone 🎄🎁 🚂 For all that coal you was dropping.
The SAC State rumors were all 🧢
The SWAC and MEAC need Conference Realignment in the worst way!!! It’s time for both conferences to combine their top 4 to 5 teams from each conference under a new brand and go FBS-Independent
I tend to agree but I feel like both conferences will wait until the last minute or a day late to really consider it. And what of the other 8-10 schools?
@KevFromTally They can bring up D2 Teams to the MEAC & SWAC & Collect an Automatic 1 Million each playing SWAC FBS Schools each year from the newly Super HBCU Conference in the FBS because they'll easily generate a Billion Dollars with Figurehead Coaches in place & Celebrity Boosters to back them. The Deals they'll be able to make will outdo any G5 Conference based on Viewership & Interest & they'll be able to Recruit Better Athletes than any G5 Team in the FBS. The SWAC & MEAC will make more Money because of the move
I'm not sure Deion's success was completely irrational. Deion came in after everyone was shut down for Covid. He also was one of the first coaches to hop on the transfer portal. Then you make the same pitch to recruits that the AD probably made to Deion. He sold him on 40K in the Vet and the Memphis game and that there was discussion of a game in Miami after the FL schools joining the SWAC. That being said, that's the same reason why no one should expect Vick at NSU to be Prime at JSU. To many things were falling perfectly into place when PRime took the job including have sons he could bring, and HBCU fans starting to really get active on social media during the pandemic. There probably isn't much Vick can do to catch people by surprise. That being said, that doesn't mean he can't have a moderately quick turn around
Best spot for McNair would be at A&M. Has ATL, B'ham and in the state North Alabama is fertile. I also think he can work the Transfer Portal with D 2 and JUCO's in the area.
I think the points you make are missing amongst the non-hbcu/757 folks. They don’t understand that sometimes the big thing isn’t their thing, its a culture hire, fox sports and a lot of mainstream media actually understand how solid this is, more than the general public.
PV is excited and ready for this boost of new energy in the program! TJack was the best possible hire out there 💪🏾
You keep saying "seen" when it should be "saw".
Michael is Flawed like Cole Slaw - Shady like Haiti - He will Get NSU Money Tho, and that's all that Matters.
Did you verify that Sacramento State pursued Michael Vick as a coaching hire? According to the street Committee, Sacramento State never offered Vick anything? The entire Sacramento State gambit is a scam.
he said his pitch is come here for a yr or 2 and better opportunities will come your way but everybody have to start from somewhere I think it will work
50 million in NIL was CAP!!!!
dont for get Missy and Pharrell connects to the School
PV Nation is hype for the Jackson Era! We have a coach who is dominant and believes in winning!
I was mad that TxSu didn’t get him last year but they’re going to learn the hard way
I disagree
😂
Grambling was in the game back in the day
Vick just needs to choose a staff that recruit and develop guys. He will be able to draw interest to the program. He doesn't need to be Deion because it will be hard to recreate the benefits Deion was able to get at JSU. There shouldn't be too many expectations put on him too soon. It will likely be more like Eddie than Deion. Eddie and Vick both had the location connection, though Vick probably is a bigger brand than George because he has been more in the public eye since his playing days than George. I guess it could be somewhat like Eddie Robinson, but I'm not sure Odums left him with as much potential as Ely did Robinson. NSU is not JSU. It will be more like one of the Eddies than Prime or TC
PV Nation checking in
Coach Berry has done an outstanding job… no doubt… with that stated an AD following that “hire recipe” must remember what type of culture and pedigree that Coach B inherited at SCSU! He did real work ON TOP OF A SOLID FOUNDATION. Coach McNair and Coach Washington are builders that I would pursue if my program lacked the SCSU pedigree and culture that Coach B inherited. In other words, install the foundation and culture environmentally before you bring in a D2 hire… imho
PV, please consider Coach McNair!
We don’t want McNair
I LOVE Prairie View A&M University / Panther-Paradise, TEXAS. (smile)
Beautiful Hat's Off !!
Jackson state hired Tuskegee coach Rick Comegy and did damn good at jsu for 7 out of 8 years.
Chennis Berry bringing DII players to FCS SCSU is the same blueprint that Curt Cignetti has done by taking FCS JMU players to FBS Indiana. Cignetti is playing in the first round of the CFB playoffs tonight.
Welp, that one ain’t age so well!!!😂😂😂 I get your point though.
Great episode Darrion! Thanks for bringing on the HBCU Nightly host! He has provided a lot of insight about the different coaching jobs.
Great Video!
Let’s get Cam Newton to Grambling
THEE JSU 💙 THEEILOVE
IT'S SWAC(JSU) TIME, BABY!😃👏👏👏
Those Lynch Street Bullies laid the wood to the Bulldogs...And the mailman was no where to be found!!!
There is one team that's the catalyst for the change!! FAMU point blank! Beat the meac every game since departure and #savedtheswac in the CB that the meac had won 5 in a row!!
It's all JSU now...
@@crazyboy2499 FAMU definitely didn’t save the SWAC
Here yall go..
FAMU Ended The Celebration Bowl Losing Streak, But If Correct, Alabama State Ended The MEAC/SWAC Losing Streak. And Jackson State University Has Beaten SCSU THE Last Two Times In 2023 And 2024.
Famu didn't save sh!+. Foh
Because the SWAC has Recruited better & have utilized the Transfer Portal Better than the MEAC. It's that simple plus if I'm not mistaken they're making more Money than the MEAC as well. They're doing better Business & that's why the SWAC is dominate. That being said I got NCCU beating Southern in the SWAC MEAC Challege next Season because the Decision Making of that University is Horrible! smh
The SWAC-MEAC Challenge with SU vs. NCCU should be an interesting one depending on what happens in the off season. I expect my Tigers to run in back in the CB.
If you go back to the SCSU vs JSU CB from 21, I think SC caught lightning in a bottle that day. That same team had losses to both Alabama A&M and FAMU that season but shows up and laid the smack down on JSU. Any given Saturday.
SCSH has gotten that butt whipped by JSU 2Xs now! Just in case you forgot!🤣🤣🤣
@@gwh0710 Ain't no getting around that "I think SC caught lightning in a bottle that day." That happened...12/14/2024 we fixed dat shit!😃👏👏👏
Just hold on to that win lil fella. SCScrubU got smacked down in 2023 and 24. 21 was 3 years ago. Nobody cares about 21. What have you done lately
My guy love the content!
757 🔥🔥🔥
I don't think it is so much the number of teams in the MEAC as it is the QUALITY of teams in the MEAC. It truly seemed that the only MEAC team that gave South Carolina State a good competitive contest during the regular season was North Carolina Central and actually SCSU was whuppin' that tail until the game got to the second half. But Del St., Morgan St., and Norfolk St had their heads handed to them by SCSU. There are weak sisters in the SWAC too, but they rarely got beat like that during this season. MEAC has the lead in the CB now, but it won't be long...
Michael Vick will have more of a deion feel vs Eddie George who barely had any coverage when he was announced as a Head Coach but every Major & Minor News Outlet was all over Michael Vick being the Head Coach so Norfolk State is about to get a HUGE BOOST in Media Coverage & Social Media Engagement 😀 Right now Alums need to create their own KC1400 Team on RUclips as a Non Affiliate Partner of the University doing Group Economics! There also need to be a Conversation to start a Super HBCU Conference now that the Value is there needed to make a Successful Transition towards an FBS Move 😀 Also he should try & hire Ed Reed to the Staff.
Norfolk State needed a spark! So true! This is a great thing for the Spartans! With all of that talent in the 757 tidewater area, recruiting should be great!
vick is back home. let's get these recruits in and start dominating
It is a great day in the 7 cities of Hampton Roads.
*This is a fair and balanced analysis*
I didn't know Vick had a degree
Thanks for your honesty! I have been watching your segments for the last couple of years. Like your energy, your unbiased, transparent, analytical approach no matter who you are covering. THEE I LOVE!!! This team and coaching staff are special!!
having top 3 receivers in the conference would be more impressive if that conference had more than 4 teams
This disrespectful shade seems pointed towards the beloved MEAC… unless you are specifically slighting the two schools that you left out the count. The MEAC is a six team conference. Does it need to grow…? Yes, the MEAC needs to grow. Let the respect line be drawn right there… the FCS conference that has BEST represented HBCU Football is EASILY thee Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference. Put some respect on that conference mane!!!
they got 6 teams n they sent an invite to Morehouse
Before the MEAC had 6 teams FAMU had the best wide receiver core in the 90’s until Pough came in 2002-2010 had the best wide receiver core until coach Berry came to SCSU.
Where & when has Michael Vick demonstrated his ability to manage educated men and women in an educational operation? Can Vick give to NSU in any capacity other than the Head coach role?
