Hey all, just curious if anyone’s got insight into how HBCUs stand in terms of their football programs? I'm looking to play at the next level and I'm wondering which HBCU schools have strong football programs with good student support. Trying to get a feel for their team culture and success rates.
Hey there! It's always exciting to hear from students eager to pursue their passion for football at the collegiate level. From what I've heard, some HBCUs have fantastic football programs. For instance, North Carolina A&T State University has made a name for itself with multiple celebration bowl victories. Then there's Grambling State University, which has a rich football heritage and is known for producing NFL talent.
The key really is to look at the support the program provides to its student-athletes, like academic advising, strength and conditioning programs, and medical care. Also, considering the team's culture, networking opportunities, and how the team does athletically are important factors.
Visiting campuses and talking to coaches and current players can give you a real feel for the program. Remember, it's not just about playing football; your education and college experience matter just as much! Best of luck in finding the right fit for you.
