Last year she signed an extension through the 2026 season.

So, it wasn't that big of an extension.

Yes they do. Notre Dame and Charlie Weis is the one that immediately comes to mind.

Just one then. No big deal.

It wasn't easy with all the injuries. I think she earned it.

Not sure where to put this but I assume if a player's name is on this list then they are not using their last year of eligibility if they have any

Not sure how the MEAC survives if this comes to fruition

The MEAC will survive. They have had programs leave before. Probably not on the level of Howard but there are programs that will, if it is a right fit, look forward to joining the MEAC.

Yeah, but they have lost their top 3 programs in the past two years, including two founding members. They are down to five football playing schools. Can't see a predominately white institution leaving its present conference to join a HBCU league. It costs alot of money to move up from Division II to Division I, not sure if any CIAA has the funds or willingness to move up. There have been rumors of Virginia State as a possibility.... but we will see.

I could see Benedict move up to D1 and join the MEAC. I would actually like that since it would mean USC and Benedict could have intra-city games in every sport. If Benedict played at USC EOY in football it would definitely make their budget.

I'm not sure why they would want to move up. I was gonna say the CIAA would be more on their level, but see they are in the SIAC already... so no reason to join the CIAA. They don't have much in common with the MEAC schools which would be all public institutions ( if Howard leaves).

Speaking of SC schools.... I was stunned to see how small SC State is in terms of total enrollment. I just assumed they were similar in level to their NC land grant brethren (NC A&T)... but A&T has 13,000 students and growing.. will SC State only has a little above 2,000. I wonder if they would look at joining the SIAC if the MEAC ceases to exist in the future.

Benedict and SC State as rivals go way back, so I could see it. Benedict has an FCS worthy football stadium not far from where I live. In fact, every fall I can hear their marching band practicing.

Oh wow.. There's someone on this list from Voorhees College. That's an itty bitty little college in an itty bitty little town called Denmark in SC. Less than 500 students.
