Wonderful! About time JSU & SWAC were recognized. No doubt Coach Prime played a large role!
That’s just 2 more than Southern and they get the Bayou Classic on NBC in primetime
Good for them!
There are a lot of assumptions about the schedule. Assumption one is that Jackson has enough water to reach the campus. Assumption two is that Jackson has enough water to service the stadium (for the home games). Assumption three is that (for the homes games) the ESPN crews do not have their equipment stolen before broadcast.
12:24 Will we have Christmas this year, Mr Grinch?
No way in hell this team will even host a game in Jackson with no water. No water means nothing to boil hot dogs is or mix with scotch.
Hot dog! Here come the "woke" crowd from espn to enlighten the budding scholars at JSU as to the ways of the world!
The more national exposure of Jackson leadership ineptness, the better. I hope to hear an announcer mention how there was no water at the restaurant and/or hotel, or better yet have to explain why the game was moved to another site.
What will Dion show as his 'home field'?
All good. But most every IAA team is on streaming services now.
The next step for JSU to get national recognition and turn into a powerhouse is to integrate.
@714, the team is well integrated. Probably as many white as black. Its the school that has not done it - you know. what's good for the goose aint good for the gander; despite the Ayers payments and requirements.
7:14 JSU was integrated generations before Ole Miss or MSU. In fact it never prevented white students from attending. People can go where they want. Get over it.
When the swac rejoins the fcs playoffs they might be relevant. They ran from that after the skulldragging by the montanas and dakotas. Took their ball and went home. Pussies
7:21- What team are you watching? It sure isn’t JSU!
Why are you talking about things in black and white? I was referring to Asian players and students.
8:09 Probably not. The fcs playoffs are a spectacular joke. You get to practice in the cold of December to play in high school stadiums in front of 2,500 freezing fans up north against schools you never heard of. On the other hand the SWAC schools end their seasons in the Superdome, Reliant Stadium or in Mercedes stadium in Atlanta in comfort averaging better than 40,000 fans on national television. The worst might be memorial stadium in Jackson in front of 50,000+ It's a tough call, huh?
7:59 As a Caucasian who is a former JSU student, I can easily tell by your goofy comment that you haven't spent much time of the JSU campus.
Let's see...OM integrated in 1962. MSU in 1963 (and without incident. 7:59 says JSU was integrated "generations" earlier. Please show me proof that JSU was integrated before World War I.
As usual, liberals can't help but lie and deceive to make a point.
If they dont show the bands at halftime ratings are sure to drop.
Just how in the world are the network censors going to deal with those scantily dressed dancers at half time shaking and quivering like large bowls of jello?
9:33 Hey if you can call me a liberal I can call you a liberal Democrat. You don't know me and I don't know you. But I do know that if you went to JSU or JSC in the last 80 years you were taught by white instructors as well as black. That's integrated. Or maybe you just took one class. Or maybe you are a lying liberal.
