Sujagtilidie, I hate to publicly "call out" a fellow SWAC bruh or school on a MEAC board, but I have a reputation to uphold. Southern and FAMU's history are in no way to be compared to Grambling, JSU and Tenn. State in this arena. The numbers don't lie. Grambling has sent more players to the NFL and have more Hall of Famers than either school mentioned. Grambling leads with 118 draft picks w/ 4 Hall of Fame members. Tenn. state 108--HOF 1 JSU 97--HOF 3 Southern University--64 One HOF FAMU 64--Zero HOF Hey, just for laughs, we'll throw in Norfolk State. Norfolk State 19. Zero HOF (no comment) Info taken from All Time NFL Draft Archive http://www.cleveland.com/browns/draft/?appSession=75786679650135 |

Go ahead and put up your list. As far as name recognition, come on Mach., you know Jackson State has Grambling beat by a nose. |

Folks, I mistakenly and IGNORANTLY gave FAMU credit it didn't deserve. I stand corrected. In NO way does FAMU's number of NFL draft picks rival that of Grambling's, Jackson State's or Tennessee State's. It's not even close. Please accept my apology for this grievous error. |

Not a dayum thing What did those 97 NFL players do while at JSU??? Did they contribute to more wins??? A greater winning percentage??? More BCF titles??? More winning seasons??? More undefeated seasons??? More 10+ win seasons??? Just to name a few... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ FLORIDA A&M FOOTBALL 2008: RATTLERS CONTROL THE D.A.S.H.!!!!!

Neither have J-States athletes and HOF's contributed to 1 Single Playoff Victory, or did they, no they didn't. Now that is truly a tragedy. No Biggie though. Congrats to J-State!!! How many Black National Titles does J-State have compared to FAMU, Southern, and TSU? Here is a hint. It is the same answer as the Tootsie Roll Owl. (A one, A two, A Three) Three For the record, in spite of their lack of Championships, J-State is still one of the best programs in HBCU History. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Be Empowered!!! |

Please do a home and home with us. Please. Our band director would probably want to bring the LEGION as well, because he is a Southern grad. And when you visit SPARTA, bring your band as well. Then we shall see who wants to step on the field who who then. This message has been edited. Last edited by: punchykky, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ THIS IS SPARRRRTA!!!!!

Thanks Robber, I didn't know that, but I do now!!! WOW, Norfolk State not only lost to a D-2 school, but you lost THREE STRAIGHT YEARS to that school. "What a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive." |

That's why I also asked these questions in comparison to FAMU:
The answers are out there JayRob I respect JSU's football tradition as being a serious HBCU powerhouse...but let's not get ahead of ourselves here... _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ FLORIDA A&M FOOTBALL 2008: RATTLERS CONTROL THE D.A.S.H.!!!!! Discipline-Attitude-Sacrifice-Heart!!!!! |
