This one is personal. My beloved Aggies of North Carolina A&T have announced that they will be leaving for what is hopefully greener pastures in the Big South Conference after this upcoming season. They have been members of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference since 1971, comprised of Historically Black Colleges and Universities since that time. There were always rumors and suspicions that A&T could make the move to another conference primarily due to the success of their foo

EAST GREENSBORO (September 22, 2018) – North Carolina A&T lost a 16-13 football game to Morgan State Saturday night at BB&T Stadium thanks to a 36-yard field goal by MSU’s Alex Raya as time expired. There are some realities that go along with that reality. The Aggies lost their first football game in 665 days. Their ownership of the longest current winning streak in the nation (Division I-FCS) has ended at 15. N.C. A&T’s 11-game home winning streak also disappeared. Lamar Ray

Photo Courtesy of NC A&T Sports Information North Carolina A&T football believes in developing players over a four or five-year period into the system. Therefore, the coaching staff is selective when choosing to sign transfers from a step above on the FBS level. But when the coaching staff does bring in FBS talent, they do it well. University of South Carolina transfer Antoine Wilder had a key interception and was all over the place defensively and Coastal Carolina transfer J

MONTGOMERY, Ala. – A 58-year old rookie head football coach named Sam Washington was staring at some incredible odds on Saturday in the Guardian Credit Union FCS Kickoff Classic against No. 6 Jacksonville State at Cramton Bowl. It was his first game as a head coach. He was taking over for a North Carolina A&T team with high expectations after going 12-0 last season. He was replacing a coaching legend while also facing a Division I-FCS power in JSU with zero losses in the Ohio

In Major League Baseball, the unbreakable record appears to be Joe DiMaggio’s 56-game hitting streak. In the NBA, it is perhaps Wilt Chamberlain’s 100 points. On Saturday, America may have witnessed another unbreakable record happen in sports, live on ABC. In the world of black college football, where teams must play Division I-FBS programs (who are sometimes named Florida State, Clemson and Arkansas) for revenue, the seventh-ranked North Carolina A&T Aggies football team we

When the wacky football action of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference ended on Saturday, the craziness brought about clarity when it comes to the MEAC representative for the Celebration Bowl. The North Carolina A&T Aggies took care of their affairs. The Aggies got 127 yards rushing and two touchdowns on 27 carries from junior Marquell Cartwright to earn a 36-17 win over Savannah State at Aggie Stadium. During the game, Cartwright went over the 1,000-yard mark for the season,

The North Carolina A&T football team finds themselves in a peculiar position after improving to 9-0 overall with a 35-7 win over Norfolk State Saturday at William “Dick” Price Stadium. The Aggies are making history in 2017, but with so much more history remaining to be made this season, they find themselves slightly tempered about the unprecedented accomplishments they have already achieved. The win over Norfolk State makes the 2017 N.C. A&T Aggies the only football team in t

How hard is to reach 8-0? No Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference team since the league started in 1971 has ever finished with a perfect overall record. The last Southwestern Athletic Conference team to go undefeated was the 1991 11-0-1 Alabama State Hornets. Only two coaches on the North Carolina A&T football staff – head coach Rod Broadway and running back coach Shawn Gibbs – have ever been associated with college football teams that were 8-0. How hard is it? Going into Saturday
