umm.. FAMU has had a long history of this. Why they are recruiting players that aren't taking "personal responsibility." Their academics aren't like that.
There is some bad leadership going on in athletics and that is after receiving a grant from the NCAA to help with those issues.

THIS IS A SHAME... SHELF INFLICTED WOUND AGAIN!! TWO OF THE FLAGSHIP UNIVERSITIES HAVING MAJOR ISSUES HEADING INTO WEEK ONE OF THE SEASON. LET'S HOPE THEY RIGHT THE SHIP SO IT WILL NOT LINGER TOO LONG AND CREATE MORE FUEL FOR PAST NARRATIVE CONCERNING HBCUs.
WITH THE HIGH PERCENTAGE OF AA IN MISSISSIPPI, ONE WOULD THINK A DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION COULD BE ELECTED WHICH COULD HELP THE CITY OF JACKSON DEAL WITH INFRASTRUCTURE ISSUES...

I don't think it's your intention to do so, but we should probably be careful about lumping the two issues together. FAMU is self infected. JSU is more a result city and state neglect.

If an academic advisor wasn't needed. The position wouldn't have ever been created and pwis wouldn't have 15 to our 1-4. All this "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" talk is nothing more than that talk. The academic advisor is there to advise students on which courses to take and there's no way in hell one academic advisor can effectively help over 300 athletes. So it just makes common sense to assume athletes fall short because of the lack of enough support. It is 100% the administration fault for not adequately giving the athletes the support they need to be successful.

This is what TSU alumni won't do.
