Very classy and entertaining show! Hot Ice uniforms is best ive seen.....ever! Band’s sound quality is still a cutt-above!!! I am forever a fan!!! 👏🏾👌🏾✊🏾
This show was lit. Sorry HONDA selection committee you chose the wrong band to represent the 757 in the 2020 HONDA BATTLE OF THE BANDS. Maybe you’ll be worthy of our presence in upcoming years. Until then “BEHOLD” THE MIGHTY “GREEN” AND “GOLD”! Thank you 🥇GRAMMY 🏆 AWARD 🥇WINNING MARCHING SPARTAN LEGION FOR MAKING HOMECOMING 2019 “NOT YOUR TYPICAL HOME COMING”!
Nii Abladey Otu 4 bands by votes and 4 by committee. Espn The undefeated had NSU #4 preseason in the nation and still in the top 10. Also, 4 of the 8 were never ranked but chosen for the Honda🤔. Another thing, last 3yrs Legion has been making noise, 2017, 2nd place Queen City BOTB , 1st performance , 2018 GHOE weekend killas, nod from Juice WRLD himself for Lucid Dreams, Grammy nominated-band with group Justice 2019, best band entrance ever, video by Killa Kev, almost 400k views in a month. Im just saying. Even if NSU fans did give enough votes , this year performances alone should have gotten The Legion in, my opinion🤔
I haven't seen a dance routine get the stadium on it's feet like that in a while. This was a stellar show. It was a wrap when they played "I'm Going Dow." Hats off to the Legion and Hot Ice for a Klass Act!! 🎩💥💥🎼🎵🎶 You all shut homecoming down!!
Never payed attention to this band but I would say from watching this from the beginning to the end, this band is very talented & unique. Music so clean and dancers are amazing. Like wow! Good job. ❤🥰👍 Bravo
Man whatever you smoking I dont wont none of it..SU Will blow the doors off they azz it's been proven and will do it again you better do your research homie...
Amazing thing bout Legion this season is that about 65 percent of band are freshman. They are very young group who came along way. Legion can hold there own against anyone!!!
Let’s be clear. The legion is a different type of band. They can definitely hold their own. But when it comes to sheer power and strength nobody does it better than then HUMAN JUKEBOX. This is coming from a die hard bleeding green and gold spartan legion dizziac alumni. But make no mistake NORFOLK STATE UNIVERSITY MARCHING SPARTAN LEGION IS THAT BAND WHO HAS THE REPUTATION TO BE GIANT KILLERS. BEHOLD THE MIGHTY GREEN & GOLD!
TheDizfunkshunal1 it’s not about power all of the time....entertainment value is key....arrangements are key....general effect is key....that’s what makes a good band....if it was about blasting, Southern wins hands down but who wants to hear that crap on almost every song....the bands I would like to see the Legion go up against is Jackson or PV or Alabama A&M....bands that play within the integrity of music
I don't know why but man watching them brings tears to my eyes! great show! sound and funk and clean as hell... Bass drum extremely clean runs! Ya'll make me proud to be a former percussionist/Drum Captain/Quint player! love this band and I regret not going to an HBCU
Them dizzys is finally cutting through lik I need em to there not 100% of wat ur use to Hearn from the dizzys bt I’ll giv a good 75 to 80% next season should be a good one 💯💯💯💯
Jalil White yes! The dizzy section leaders did GREAT this year being LEADERS and teaching the kids the horn!!! Idk who could’ve dealt with this group better! I’m amazed! Job well done guys
We were just talking about the pep band performances at NSU in the 80’s. Those performance were sooo entertaining at the basketball games. Does anyone have any footage of these performances? Please post if you do. Spartan for Life!!! 💚💛💚💛💚💛
Fan4Life...my HBCU since the 90's...that sound though anddddd that marching were on point!!! What a great homecoming! I bleed green & gold... #BEHOLD #EDUCATION #TEACHERSLEAD
Hopefully we will meet you all in the Celebration Bowl, I love what the DOB is doing with the flags. To place you all on notice, The Sounds of Dynamites and GGs of Alcorn State University the most viewed HBCU band in the world, will be bringing the Smoke. Fear The Braves Nation
So what the douche-bags are saying is no matter what The Legion does you are going to be hating...here is a suggestion...DON'T WATCH!!! Good job legion!!! #BEHOLD
I kinda agree. It wasn’t a bad show. But it was kinda like bland. I remember Mr. Adams used to mention the phrase “wow factor” not seeing much of that from Norfolk this year. I haven’t seen much of them but when I have they’ve kinda been middle of the road.
Being from Morgans band i gotta give credit where credit is due they sounded very well tbh. By the way they don't need mics in the stands idk why they use it
The program seemed to be going in the right direction until this year. All the hype about the numbers but there’s 0 aggression outside of the low brass. 2017 Legion > 2019 Problem is people keep telling them how great they are right now. Be honest this is a middle of the road and at best. Luckily they haven’t seen anyone this season. Because this ain’t it G.
As a Legion alumni I get what you're saying, but they're not being gassed up, the issue is rebuilding with limited funds...yeah a few mercenary killers came back in '17 (lol) but people can't march forever. In a nutshell the bar was set VERY high in the 2000's, then the bottom fell out financially...with the limited funds available it's actually remarkable what they have been able to achieve. We will continue to support and encourage them.
Kareem you do have a valid point , I love the legion , and I will not comment anything negative about this band, but I think they need to evolve! My rookie year Doc hires Paul Adams, Mr B and Ms. Saunders, . If you look at 2017. That band was at its peak from the rebuilding years of 14 through 16, 18 highlight performance was against Ncat. This year, although the band is very young , you can tell that in the arrangements , drills and performances the band is stagnant! They have to bring in another band director, hows skilled in balance arrangements and a new drill writer for the program to continue to progress to the heights we all want to see them go! It’s has to be more than just trolling other bands on you tube comments , musicianship always done the talking for the legion ! I pray they take note ! Because the ball is in their court ! We are supporting and watching from a far! But great homecoming, something to use for your next recruitment marketing video !
We do them every game but our folks were lining the streets for our performance going back to the band room and drumline exhibition. Also, we reported at 6am and marched a parade.
Interesting because last year A&T played you all for homecoming and had a full 5th. It’s college man. So many excuses. I’m used to the Legion being like robots.
Matthew Macanhay the game was at A&T stupid....Norfolk doesn’t have any other obligations when they go to someone else’s homecoming....at NSU’s homecomings, band alumni cook (tailgate) for them, they have to do the traditional march through campus back to the band room where MDF$ has to do a drum block along with past drummers and drum majors....it’s too much to stay after the game in a stadium playing 20 songs against another band....plus, those band members want to enjoy homecoming as well
I dont call this a field show when the entire band take 10 to 20 Stepa to the left right forward and back but basically in the same position and formation. Too much emphasis on drum majors. All this must be regional or conference thing.
Wasn’t feeling it. Seems like the majority of the people like this but I’m not feeling it. I’m used to a different type of legion. I guess times have changed.
What I’m saying is. This is good for legion people. But nobody outside of the state wants to see this. This Is not what got you guys known in the first place. Wake up before it’s too late.
Bruh I’m not coming to another game to watch this band barley play during the game. Not play at all after the game. What happen to battling the opposing band. Y’all haven’t been to a game outside of Norfolk all year and every time another band comes here y’all leave early. Cmon bruh. All these new uniforms and gimmicks and somehow y’all have forgotten that people come to the games to see y’all. I heard kids in the band cheering when they were getting ready to leave the stadium. If you don’t wanna play don’t march in the band. Hampton’s band has been everywhere this year and seen way more even with them no longer being in the meac. A shift is coming soon. Next year HU will have the best band in the state of Virginia and Norfolk should blame their director for constantly leaving these games. Not taking the band anywhere. And don’t give me that budget bs. You took the job you gotta find a way.
Lmao just because they travel doesn’t mean Hampton is the better band it simply just means that they travel lol. Norfolk State will forever be the best in the state of Virginia
No energy. Bad song selection. Same drill from the last time we saw them. Trumpets still thin. Low brass carrying the band. Dancers sloppy. And somebody will argue with me about this but I’m calling it like I see it.
Why are you the only one speaking like you are? Isn’t it strange you’re the only one saying this crap? I mean, the Legion has haters everywhere...if the haters, other than yourself, thought the Legion was terrible, Trust me, they would say so....you’re on a lonely island troll
Kareem Johnson coming from a current legion member, if u don’t like us don’t watch us you don’t have to speak on us either. Your speaking as if you have directed bands or have a degree in such matter. Humble yourself and keep moving on in life Lil bro
I just love the Spartan Legion. Perfect blend, balance and showmanship. IMO, they can't be duplicated. Million Dollar Funk Squad is simply the best!
Could not have said it better myself!
I bet no one recognized the ending formation of the legion’s drill was the Batman emblem. Being it was Halloween weekend as well. 🎃Genius.👻
TheDizfunkshunal1 I did. Very creative
Dancers have improved alot over the season
The uniform looks AMAZING without the overlay..I LOVE IT, so clean and collegiate 💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!!!!
ALWAYS a Lit halftime show! Junior Drum Majors, Hot Ice and entire band was jamming! Happy Homecoming 2019 NSU
Very classy and entertaining show! Hot Ice uniforms is best ive seen.....ever! Band’s sound quality is still a cutt-above!!! I am forever a fan!!! 👏🏾👌🏾✊🏾
That's right! A kut above the rest!!

TheDizfunkshunal1 Good show y’all should of play A&T for homecoming...but Hampton is one of them goat bands.
Right how they did not make honda and HU did the world may never know!!!!!
The Legion is always Lit, but the Honda bands were selected by voters, not a committee. We have to vote next time Legion nation!
Nii Abladey Otu 4 bands by votes and 4 by committee. Espn The undefeated had NSU #4 preseason in the nation and still in the top 10. Also, 4 of the 8 were never ranked but chosen for the Honda🤔.

@@MrTurntine1989 Wow. I stand corrected & educated. Thank you sir. But now I'm confused because how could NSU not make it in?
I haven't seen a dance routine get the stadium on it's feet like that in a while. This was a stellar show. It was a wrap when they played "I'm Going Dow." Hats off to the Legion and Hot Ice for a Klass Act!! 🎩💥💥🎼🎵🎶 You all shut homecoming down!!
EXCEPTIONAL AS ALWAYS! That was the strongest funkiest version of “Candy” I’ve heard performed. Cameo would be proud.
I don’t know where to start! This field show was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! That dance team was so on point it was ridiculous! The whole thing was phenomenal!
That's what I'm talkin bout! That's one of the best Dances Routines I've seen from any HBCU! This year! Love it NSU! That thing was "HOT"!
Watching this all the way in Hawaii. WOW, WOW, WOW......EXCELLENT. We LOVE YOU, SPARTANS.
Never payed attention to this band but I would say from watching this from the beginning to the end, this band is very talented & unique. Music so clean and dancers are amazing. Like wow! Good job. ❤🥰👍 Bravo
I never heard of this school, but they put on a show and the sound is amazing!
The school is located in Norfolk, VA. Check out the school. Yes, I am a alumni. Class of 94!! Green and Gold!!

Nice! #Behold
jacquees
Being from Morgans band i gotta give credit where credit is due they sounded very well tbh. By the way they don't need mics in the stands idk why they use it
We don't use mics. They're only their so the drum majors can communicate with the band.
Jabel Williams well they gotta make sure they turn it off cause few times they played it came off the mic's so it was confusing
The program seemed to be going in the right direction until this year. All the hype about the numbers but there’s 0 aggression outside of the low brass. 2017 Legion > 2019
Problem is people keep telling them how great they are right now. Be honest this is a middle of the road and at best. Luckily they haven’t seen anyone this season. Because this ain’t it G.
So you’re an authority on Bands now? What’s your degree? Sit down somewhere

Run Joe I agree with you. Work with the band you have now. This was a good performance.
Joseph Beslow jr enjoyed your comment. I am hoping that NSU will join the Big South 2021 year.
Norfolk state don’t do 5th quarters anymore? What’s up with that.
Matthew Macanhay facts I'm i Morgans band they really didn't do one that day
We do them every game but our folks were lining the streets for our performance going back to the band room and drumline exhibition. Also, we reported at 6am and marched a parade.
Matthew Macanhay Duh it was our homecoming.

No, you wake up!! That show is Fire anywhere! I live in Atlanta and it DEFINITELY would be received quite well here
No it wouldn’t have 😂 please stop bro. I was around when Norfolk went to Morris brown in 01 this isn’t the same band anymore.
No you stop.... you think people are ignorant to great sounding bands....boy sit down somewhere...you just don’t know what really entertains people
Dang whats the aggravation for? Im from gambling and I loved it and never even been to this schools feild shows. Jesus wake up
