SUGGESTIONS: This would be much more beneficial if there was some VOICE OVERS explaining the type of DISCIPLINE and WORK that needs to go into a person who wants to make it on one of these drumlines. The untrained eye and ear has NO IDEA what they are listening to and so it may seem like they are just swinging sticks. Also for the HIGH SCHOOLERS that desire to attend a HBCU and play in the band, how about INTRODUCING the featured SCHOOLS, BANDS and BAND DIRECTORS and HOW they can APPLY and get into COLLEGE.
You know I kinda looked into the line a little and I was surprised that yall don't march quads or quints. Or at least I haven't seen any when viewing the line. I kinda like that yall are that traditional and true to the origin.
BCU was tight but seems like their movements got a little out of synch on some of the movements where they were flipping their drums. GSU was actually kind of clean for most of that. I'm not quite sure why Alcorn has everyone with different caps and headbands.
Where is Cold Steele at? I didnt like GSU their snares didn't sound together. ASU was cool...but it sound like they had freshman that just came in. JSU good as usual. And someone get SU some Kevlar heads!
Omg yes gsu is pretty sloppy ! And was that a lil boy on snare ? Lol big ups to him..famu killd it so did jsu! Good job su(bro plays for them) and who were those bands at 2:45 and 9:30? Oh yea were is uapb at?! I wanted to see them 2!

No Million Dollar? No Bongo Brothers? No Cold Steel? The maker of this video was obviously biased toward the SWAC, which is why this video is boring and sloppy (except BCU). The cream of the crop isnt even represented here. This is not the best that HBCU drumlines have to offer.
It’s been 10 years and I’m waiting on a Vol. 2🥴😂
Oooo! The first cadence JSU play's, you can't help but to node your head when that bass starts kickin!
JSU SNARES ALL CLEAN!!! GREAT JOB!!!! NICE!!!
W T is the truth. ....
I miss this Alcorn. Being their authentic selves. Back when every college had their own style.
jsu gotta badass drumline forreal
LET'S GO SU GET FUNKY with it
BCC killed that sudden impact

Blood, Sweat, and Tears was the only factor in making those drumlines in that era!
JSU ALL DAY!!!!!!
Jsu killed it at the end.
LET'S GO JSU
#TheeILove WT
gsu,jsu,and su were the best too me
3:00 VERY CLEAN!
SWAC is where all the best HBCU drumlines is at
AND THE LITTLE KID IN THE CENTER!!! OMGG BAND!

No offense taken, You defended your comment well and I will look at some more clips of NCCU's D.O.A since you explained your view so clearly.
Thanks
I personally beg to differ: I believe that ASU's line is SUPER clean. I coupd use a little more presence from them but their sound is great.
@TheMarchingbandTV Except that DCI is actually clean and looks like they know what they're doing
No thanks to those kevlar heads. Our snares have that traditional military sound. Most people don't appreciate it, but it's more of a dark sound. I
FAMU Cymbals are always crazy as hell
Some Body Take FAMUs Drums Away,, UGGHHH!!
jsu,gsu,and su was the best no lie
@1988Elton That hasn't happened yet wit J-state. They know how to control their sticks. It's just their style of playing.
Maybe the person who made the video put the schools he wanted to put on its his choice and meac is way more boring then swac
swac all day
why FAMU cymbals so small ?!?!
Bethune cookman was the best no comp.
Where can i purchase these videos at to have for my dvd collection?
I agree with you except for NCCU's DOA.....You have have mention NCA&T's " Cold Steel"
it has to be a part 2 cause i didn't see RAT patrol? wow
for most that dont now you have to be at jsu are listen to the befor yall talk
@avaughndre56 they got 14,16,and possibly 18s
@Tigerman286 that was a midgit on gramblings line
therre is a lil bo wit gsu choppin
That clip at 13:07 Alcorn looked pretty nice to me.
@LCLTBONE2010 Your High School got that cadence from FAMU ... Weather they play it better or not
SCSU Bongo Bros
Why does Grambling have a child on their drumline? :p
Did BCU Play Feature 3000 in this video?
@ibdatsuperman JSU funk cadences are way older check the history WT aint no bitters very original
War n thunder
I agree
Look at my boys from Cookman at Jacksonville Jaguars Stadium
i might just be poorly informed but what on earth is w/ those snare being tilted forward like that?
BCU was tight but seems like their movements got a little out of synch on some of the movements where they were flipping their drums. GSU was actually kind of clean for most of that. I'm not quite sure why Alcorn has everyone with different caps and headbands.
Does Anyone know the Name of the First Cadence BCU Played??
True statement
funk factoryyyy
go Jackson State
what year is this
@ballouwt04 Youre right.!
Sonic BOOM ALLDAY!!
@ballouwt04 but tell me why FAMU looks and sounds better then most of these drumlines on here???(not BCU though)

Where is Cold Steele at? I didnt like GSU their snares didn't sound together. ASU was cool...but it sound like they had freshman that just came in. JSU good as usual. And someone get SU some Kevlar heads!

you would figure FAMU would have one of the best drumlines in the country but i guess that isnt the case
its 2 parts right there... look at 1 and 3 ... then 2 and 4...
DUCKMOUTH!

Omg yes gsu is pretty sloppy ! And was that a lil boy on snare ? Lol big ups to him..famu killd it so did jsu! Good job su(bro plays for them) and who were those bands at 2:45 and 9:30? Oh yea were is uapb at?! I wanted to see them 2!
