STRIKE SEASON PODCAST: ALL WE GOT IS US! WHAT CAN YOU DO FOR MOTHER FAMU?
Mother FAMU needs us! It’s time to stop talking about what FAMU Athletics needs and start talking about what WE can do to help build it. On this episode of the Strike Season Podcast, Troy and Marlo are putting their money where their mouths are as Fatmouth Sports Network launches the “ALL WE GOT IS US” campaign!
Troy and Marlo are stepping up with a combined $1,500 donation to FangExchange to support FAMU Athletics. But this is bigger than two people making a donation. It’s about creating a movement. What can every FAMU graduate, fan, supporter, and member of the Rattler family do to help build a stronger athletic department? Can we create a culture where supporting our programs becomes a priority instead of just a talking point? Mother FAMU needs all of us!
Basketball season is underway, but there are already questions surrounding the competitiveness of Division I HBCU basketball. Two D-I HBCU programs have suffered losses to NAIA opponents. What is behind these results? Is it talent, recruiting, resources, coaching, NIL, or the growing financial gap between programs? Are these losses early-season growing pains, or should HBCU basketball fans be concerned about what they mean for the season ahead?
The SWAC West race may have gotten a whole lot more interesting after the Grambling vs. Arkansas-Pine Bluff game ended in a fight and subsequent suspensions. How will the disciplinary decisions impact both programs? Could the suspensions change the complexion of the division race and potentially determine who represents the West?
Over in Tallahassee, Florida State has hired a new Athletic Director. What does Troy think about the hire? Is this the right person to lead the Seminoles into their next chapter? And, more importantly, does this move open the door for a potential Jimbo Fisher return to Tallahassee? Let’s discuss!
Meanwhile, college football’s postseason landscape continues to evolve. The College Football Playoff and ESPN have negotiated a deal involving an expanded playoff. With FBS conference championship games potentially becoming a thing of the past, could cities like Atlanta and Charlotte make a serious push to host the NCAA FCS Championship Game? And should the SWAC consider moving its championship game to Atlanta to create a bigger event, attract more fans, and generate additional revenue for the conference?
We’re talking FAMU, HBCU basketball, SWAC football, Florida State, Jimbo Fisher, college football’s changing postseason landscape, and the future of HBCU athletics.
This isn’t just about complaining. It’s about contributing. It’s about building. It’s about taking ownership.
🔥 ALL WE GOT IS US!
