    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    Which FCS schools did FAMU play? Exactly. Them beating up on schools that are for the most part lower tier schools doesn't prove anything. Let's look at what happens when decent, playoff quality schools face HBCUs. Oh, that's right, it's **** near a cause for celebration when an HBCU manages...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    They aren't developing talent, period. They get ROLLED by **** near every decent FCS school they face. You really think a school like South Dakota State or Richmond are getting a bevy of 4 and 5 stars? Nope, but they are well coached, well managed and it shows on gameday. The last HBCU to win...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    TO didn't attend an HBCU. He attended UT-Chattanooga, which isn't an HBCU. By the way, you can get laid at any school if you are a student-athlete.

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    Most of those HBCU HOFers played in an era in which black student athletes HAD NO CHOICE in regards to choosing a school. A lot of the HBCU glory days happened in an era where freedom of choice was nonexistent. While you still have a ton of schools that aren't enlightened, you also have a lot...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    No I didn't, but I'm quite familiar with the unique challenges faced by those institutions due to having a lot of family members, a fair amount did attend HBCUs. You are overrating what a decent athletic department does for a school. It's a fairly common misconception on this board, because...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    The reason why a lot of top end kids won't consider an HBCU is the same reason why most 5 stars won't consider going to Boston U or NJIT for sports. Athletically, most HBCUs are managed poorly, and I mean very poorly. It's not an accident that despite being in places where they have...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    A guy being on campus for 9 months does NOTHING for the long term viability of an institution. HBCUs keep reaching for magic bullets, instead of doing the things they should have done years ago. HBCUs take their sweet time in regards to upgrading tech, they missed the online education boat...

    OT - 5 star basketball recruit chooses Howard (HBCU) over UCLA

    Odds are they won't. You forget that these state flagship institutions represent an entire area, they have that name recognition. Sports are just a part of that brand. People forget that the alumni bases of these HBCUs are miserably small(and aging in a lot of respects), and that affects...
