The best conference is to move up to the Athletic American Conference would be the best move. With Cincinnati and UCF leaving bonus to add North Dakota State with JSU
G5 average athletic budget is between 25million and50 million. Football teams in the Sun Belt conference spend on average $8 million and their athletic budget is between $22-$27 million. JSU current athletic budget is $9 million JSU will need to increase their athletic budget by about 200%.
If and I underline “IF” that would be considered, then I hope the Jackson State Administration has additional plans in place to increase their athletic budget. Sure, they are making a lot of money through ticket sales and merchandise due to the Deion effect, but TBH the athletic department isn’t seeing most of it because they have to pay Coach Sanders a large percentage of what would be consider extra money. So it’s almost like they are just above square one. PrAirie View is the only school in the SWAC with athletic budget that’s close enough to a school with a lower level FBS program. C-USA has flirted with Southern & Grambling in the past, but that’s about it. The main thing you have to remember is that an FBS conference has to invite you to come up. Going independent on the FBS would be a nightmare. SWAC Commissioner Dr Charles McClelland still has his plan in place to elevate the entire SWAC to the FBS level in a number of years and he’s still working in it as we speak. To me, that’s the best option for any SWAC school to move up.
Coach Prime is making his people proud; all his people including every minority in America and abroad. Coach Prime is the beacon of light and Jackson State is his lighthouse.
Dear Carl, Jackson State is a D1 school. And no HBCU needs to join a PWI conference. However they can make those black school conferences as big as the SEC, BIG10 or whatever.. integration has never been good for black folks 🤷🏾♂️
it is unfortunately wishful thinking that there would be a black superconference. There isn't enough HBCUs who are putting in the work to grow for that to happen.
@@karumehickman up where ...you have all the other sports in the MEAC and SWAC that are on the same level as the SEC ACC Big 10 etc ....but football...and then we haven't won a FCS championship or playoff game since 1978 when FAMU won for the MEAC... Y'all really dont make any sense...besides it cost millions to move up FBS...some of the PWI programs are struggling in the FBS with winning records under their belts as FCS...some of y'all be talking and don't know sht about football...just babbling because of Deion
Thank you. I’ve been saying this!!! There is no HBCU at the D1 FBS level. Move up to a D1 FBS conference such as the sun belt conference and JSU would become crazy. More TV time, More funding and more recruits.
Ohhhhh now FSU want Deion ‘ boy boy boy JSU hold your heads up high you making D1 thinking about begging you guys to finally come in …….. Listen up ppl (Baby gotta eat)
Deion and JSU hasn't prove they can win HBCU championships...nevertheless the FCS championship...what the hell folks are drinking these days...only school that have proven they can play with the big boys is NDSU who has defeated P5s 9-3 ...JSU hasn't defeated a top tier FCS or FBS yet besides got slaughtered by SCSU in the CB...I don't care how many star players and star coaches you have..until that program dominates at the level they are in...you've proven nothing...Big 10 GTFOH
THEE JSU ARE THEE STANDARD ❤️ THEEILOVE

Wouldn't be bad actually
They already D1
he means going FBS vs FCS
@@karumehickman I know what he means but he disrespecting them guys and on UA-cam saying the wrong thing
@@Maalthe1 he made a mistake, but I don't see what you think is disrespect?
@@karumehickman just cuz it’s a huge difference in D1 and D2 sports now…especially basketball and football
@@Maalthe1 ok, so who is he disrespecting?

You can easily tell who really pays attention to HBCU sports and who doesn’t. These guys clearly don’t.

Well the most competitive HBCU conference is the MEAC...SWAC has never beaten a FBS or top tier FCS pwi so maybe the SWAC needs to join the MEAC
@@georgedixon8095 the goal is to go up not sideways

All facts! Coach Sanders would instantly become a national title contender

What sunbelt on tv
@@contrarianthinker Sun Belt signed a 10-yr deal with ESPN last year. But how many games are on Saturdays, and, how many are on 2/U?🤷🏾♂️
@@aj71169 I understand it sounds good but time will tell they are hbcu’s for a reason
@@contrarianthinker can’t let what you’ve been stop you from being what you can be. Gotta keep numbers decisions about numbers.
@@aj71169 remember the Negro baseball league “history is our best teacher” by Malcolm X
Can’t move up that quick
Who said?
Remember when famu went fbs in 2004..yeah..lets not repeat that.
Ohhhhh now FSU want Deion ‘ boy boy boy JSU hold your heads up high you making D1 thinking about begging you guys to finally come in …….. Listen up ppl (Baby gotta eat)
I've been saying this since day one, move JSU TO D1
SWAC & MEAC is D1
It's simple. If Deion is planning to stay them boys need to go immediately to Big10. Go all the way and get it done.
Deion and JSU hasn't prove they can win HBCU championships...nevertheless the FCS championship...what the hell folks are drinking these days...only school that have proven they can play with the big boys is NDSU who has defeated P5s 9-3 ...JSU hasn't defeated a top tier FCS or FBS yet besides got slaughtered by SCSU in the CB...I don't care how many star players and star coaches you have..until that program dominates at the level they are in...you've proven nothing...Big 10 GTFOH
this is called fear talking
@@karumehickmanfear of JSU or fear of having a competitive schedule???
@@georgedixon8095 almost by default if they move up to FBS their schedule would be competitive.
