It might be a good move for Morehouse if they can afford him.

Hue OR whoever won't make a difference.
Morehouse DOES NOT fully support its football program.
Brother Rich Freeman did all he could but his resources were very limited.
And this talk of Morehouse joining the MEAC is a joke.
HOW can we go to FCS/MEAC and we BARELY support our current D2 status?
NOT TO MENTION, sustaining that level of committment.
NOPE! Believe it when I see it!

UNM great Terance Mathis named head coach at Morehouse CollegeFeb. 2—Terance Mathis, a two-time All-American wide receiver for New Mexico, has been hired as Morehouse College's head football coach, the program announced Friday via release.
Mathis, 56, was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in December after rewriting the record books in his four seasons as a Lobo. Following a successful 13-year NFL career, he has served as a high school and college coach in Georgia in addition to operating his own NASCAR team.
"We are in a season of change and enhancement within Morehouse Athletics," Morehouse College athletic director Harold Ellis said in a release. "The College is known for producing some of the most skilled and gifted professionals across all industries, and that same spirit of excellence must be established within our athletic programs. I'm excited to welcome Coach Mathis to The House and look forward to partnering with him in taking the football program to the next level."
From 1985-89, Mathis racked up 263 receptions, 4,254 receiving yards and 36 touchdowns on his way to three First-Team All-WAC selections with UNM. All three marks still stand as school records in addition to Mathis being the first Lobo to finish with over 250 career receptions, 4,000 receiving yards and 6,000 all-purpose yards.
After being drafted by the New York Jets in 1990, he signed with the Atlanta Falcons as an unrestricted free agent in 1994. The move proved to be career-altering, as Mathis spent the next eight years in Atlanta hauling in 57 receiving touchdowns and 7,349 receiving yards — including a run to Super Bowl XXXIII, where he had a three-yard touchdown reception against the Denver Broncos.
Mathis retired following the 2002 season and ventured into coaching, serving as the offensive coordinator at Savannah State University from 2011-12 and the head coach at Pinecrest Academy in Cumming, Ga.
He interviewed for UNM's head coaching position after Danny Gonzales was fired in November but wasn't offered the job. The Lobos eventually hired Bronco Mendenhall.
Morehouse College is coming off back-to-back 1-9 seasons. The Maroon Tigers have not had a winning season since 2018.

I wouldn't call him another Eddie George. He's actually working in coaching already. And I don't know if he's a media darling for Atl like Eddie is for Nashville.

Morehouse to MEAC talk was pretty loud. Has died down now quite a bit. this topic pops up every year and has for over 20 years on the meac fans zone message board. then the topic turns to Tuskegee joining the swac or the meac.
neither school is leaving the SIAC let alone looking to go to FCS football.Good grief, Tuskegee stadium doesn't even have LIGHTS and folks think that they can afford a move like this? Morehouse just got lights at their stadium about 7 years ago and there still is NO visitor side.
Tuskegee RECENTLY started making some improvements, none of which leads to FCS.
D2 exists for a reason and there is nothing wrong with D2. You're talking 2 very SMALL private hbcu's.

Morehouse to MEAC talk was pretty loud. Has died down now quite a bit. From what I heard it wasn't loud amongst the people that matter (i.e. the MEAC). It was a speculative inquiry that went no further. Social media has a way of over projecting intentions and the non-existent.

Talk is one thing, facts is another.
Morehouse is NOT going to the MEAC and never claimed to be looking in to it.
Tuskegee isn't going to the MEAC NOR the SWAC either.
NUFF SAID!
This 'rumor' pops up every year....and thats all it is
