Send us a textThe road warriors of HBCU Game Day hit multiple states to bring you comprehensive coverage of college football's opening weekend, witnessing everything from NFL legend Michael Vick's coaching debut to nail-biting classics that set the tone for the 2023 season.The most anticipated storyline belonged to Vick at Norfolk State, where approximately 19,000 fans—the largest non-homecoming crowd in years—packed the stadium donning every jersey from his illustrious playing career. The electric atmosphere couldn't translate to on-field success as the Spartans fell 27-7 to Towson. Observers noted Vick seemed to blend into the sideline rather than commanding it, perhaps showing the learning curve from player to head coach. Despite the loss, Norfolk State fans remained optimistic: "It's just the first game, y'all. We're going to be back."Meanwhile, the John Merritt Classic delivered heart-stopping drama as Tennessee State survived North Carolina A&T's late comeback attempt when they blocked a potential game-tying field goal to secure a 24-21 victory. A&T's quarterback change to a redshirt freshman sparked their offense, leading many to believe they'll secure their first Division I win since September 2023 in the coming weeks—perhaps even at homecoming.The Red Tails Classic in Montgomery featured Winston-Salem State and Tuskegee battling before 15,000 fans on ESPNU. Beyond the on-field action, both schools participated in a giving challenge that raised substantial scholarship funds, including one remarkable $100,000 donation to Tuskegee. The SIAC conference claimed a 3-2 advantage over the CIAA in their cross-conference matchups.Looking ahead to Week Two, Virginia State enters as a surprising 3.5-point favorite over Division I Norfolk State in what could be a telling matchup. As one host boldly stated, "If they let little state go on and take over big state...I'll know everything I need to know" about Norfolk State's potential under Vick's leadership.Whether you're planning to attend games or watching from home, download our app for exclusive content, breaking news, and in-depth analysis from the people who are actually in the stands witnessing HBCU football history as it unfolds.Support the show
Send us a textThe second week of HBCU football approaches with several compelling storylines emerging from an action-packed opening weekend. Alabama State quarterback Andrew Body delivered a performance for the ages against UAB, throwing for 312 yards and rushing for 119 more while accounting for five touchdowns. His stellar showing sparked heated debate when he was named co-offensive player of the week alongside Jackson State's Ahmad Miller, who rushed for 172 yards on just 10 carries.Michael Vick's highly anticipated coaching debut at Norfolk State attracted national attention with ESPN cameras and celebrity appearances, but resulted in a 27-7 loss to Towson. The Spartans struggled to establish offensive rhythm while rotating quarterbacks, highlighting the challenges ahead for the program under new leadership. Meanwhile, Delaware State showed surprising tenacity against Delaware despite being picked to finish last in the MEAC. Their aggressive defensive play and strong running game from Marquise Gillis (123 yards) suggested they might significantly outperform preseason expectations.Week 2 brings "payout weekend" for many HBCU programs facing FBS opponents, with Grambling State headlining by collecting $1 million to face Ohio State. Other notable games include UAPB at Texas Tech ($575,000) and Jackson State at Southern Miss ($375,000). These matchups provide crucial financial support for athletic departments while offering players valuable experience against top-tier competition. In Division II, Benedict made a statement with a shutout victory over Fayetteville State, while Clark Atlanta impressed in a narrow loss to powerhouse Valdosta State.The passion surrounding HBCU football continues to grow, with programs like North Carolina A&T introducing special helmet decals honoring the Greensboro Four civil rights icons. Whether you're following Division I or Division II action, the competition promises excitement across all conferences.

The 2025 HBCU Football season is here, and it might be one of the most exciting in years! Randall & Arielle return to preview the season and give their predictions on who will come out on top come December. The duo breaks down this weekend's well-anticipated MEAC/SWAC Challenge against North Carolina Central and Southern University. Will the Eagles leave Atlanta victorious once again, or will Southern prove that they're ready to challenge Jackson State's dominance? Randall & Arielle break down the addition of Michael Vick nd DeSean Jackson as the newest head coaches in the MEAC. As the season approaches, do we think they'll fare well? Is Chennis Berry's South Carolina State Bulldogs still the class of the MEAC? Is Jackson State poised to repeat? The team breaks it down!
Send us a textThe landscape of HBCU football is undergoing a transformative shift as the 2025 season approaches, with NFL legends stepping into coaching roles and traditional powers reasserting their dominance.Former NFL stars Michael Vick and Desean Jackson have sent shockwaves through the MEAC by taking over at Norfolk State and Delaware State respectively. Vick's homecoming to the 757 area has already revitalized Norfolk State's program through increased visibility, merchandise sales, and fan engagement. His $400,000 salary makes him the highest-paid coach in the conference, signaling the university's commitment to football success. Meanwhile, Jackson brings his characteristic confidence and "take no prisoners" mentality to a Delaware State program looking to rebound from consecutive dismal seasons.In the SWAC, Jackson State continues to thrive under TC Taylor despite the post-Deion Sanders era. Quarterback Jacobian Morgan, who rejected transfer portal opportunities to remain with his hometown team, anchors a roster loaded with returning talent and strategic additions. The Tigers enter as clear favorites to repeat as conference champions and return to the Celebration Bowl.The transfer portal era has dramatically reshaped roster management, particularly affecting Division II powerhouses. Virginia Union head coach Dr. Alvin Parker revealed the jarring experience of losing 17 players to the portal immediately following their Elite Eight playoff run, illustrating how quickly program trajectories can change in today's college football environment.Southern University presents an intriguing case study in player redemption, with former LSU four-star running back Trey Holly joining head coach Terrence Graves' program. While Holly brings elite talent to the backfield, quarterback uncertainty looms as Southern prepares for their season opener against North Carolina Central in the MEAC-SWAC Challenge.As we kick off another exciting season of HBCU football, download the HBCU Gameday app for complete coverage of all the action, from conference battles to the Celebration Bowl and everything in between.Support the show

In this episode of Black Is America, we highlight the groundbreaking journey of Doug Williams, the first Black quarterback to start and win a Super Bowl. From his early days in Zachary, Louisiana, to Grambling State under legendary coach Eddie Robinson, to breaking barriers in the NFL, Williams' career is a testament to resilience, intelligence, and excellence. But Williams' path was anything but easy. Systemic racism, underestimation, and financial disparity sought to hold him back. Yet, he persevered, ultimately delivering one of the greatest performances in Super Bowl history. This episode explores not only Doug Williams' impact but the long-standing biases Black quarterbacks faced in professional football. We also highlight historical figures like Fritz Pollard and pivotal moments in sports history that paved the way for today's generation of Black quarterbacks.
