Is QUITTING something to be proud of?

What are they going through? A long bus ride? Who flies much in the SWAC to begin with? MH told you their buses pulled in at the Golden Corral for food and they do have an all you can eat buffet.
I guess that bit just flew over your head. Then the players asked for the head coach to be fired and he was. Now they're asking that the President resign and you're supporting that BS from a damn 0-15 team who recently got waxed 48-0?! Please! LOL!!

The Pregame meals are very unhealthy as well. Steak or Grilled Chicken, Mashed Potatoes or Baked Potato, Green Beans, 2-3 Cookies. Red Diamond Sweet Tea. Perfect and Healthy Pregame Meal.

How do you know what they had for a pre-game meal? That's it, you don't.
It's gone over your head to realize that this has nothing to do with food. This has to do with a 15 game SWAC losing streak, a 48-0 asswhuppin and a potential 70-0 asswhuppin at Memorial.
Doug recruited some sorry ass, mentally weak players who quit on their fans, alumni and the Grambling name.

I was thinking the same thing. Why risk having an injury that will have an adverse effect on your season?

JSU enuff said!
I support them going to division 2

Hail, Hail To Thee...
I second that motion, especially if the financial situation is THAT bad at Grambling.
My qualm about this situation is if the players knew of the condition the athletic facilities were in involuntary were recruited, knew that the university is operating on an athletic deficit, and knew the state cut funding prior to the school year beginning, why would the football players wait until midseason with an 0-7 record to protest? #Foolish

You know damn well most of y'all were ready to crucify the players before even finding out the details behind all this. Just be honest with yourself and admit that you all look at students as a means to an end (tuition and research money for your university) and football CATTLE just like the PWCs y'all love to condemn.
Groupthink is a hell of a drug.

Exactly! All of the posters condemning the football players sound like racist whites. It's really sad.

Why was not this an issue last year? The year before? Or the summer publicly?
The state cut the budget yearly so it was not like there was not advance notice
Bottom line...look at the negative publicity it has caused

Did any of you read the CNN article? In that article, Doug Williams had the supplies for a replacement weight room floor. The money for that floor came from some alums. But, Pres. Pogue said that Doug didn't go through him so he had the flooring installed in another building.
So, if the facilities have been bad for years when do they get fixed? Now is as good a time as any to fix things up.
Pres. Pogue is out of control!!!! He needs to be removed ASAP.
I hope you all realize a good bit of White folks agree with the Grambling players. ESPN, USA Today, CNN, Fox Sports, etc. all agree with the athletes. Say what you will about White folks but they wouldn't have their alma mater's football team taking a road trip and not all of the players receiving their meals. They wouldn't stand for that at all!!!
Grambling's football players are doing more good for Grambling than has been done there athletically speaking in a long time. But, I don't think many of you can see the good they are doing. In about 20-30 years you all will be celebrating these Grambling players because White folks will validate them. Mark my words.

Dude please. It seems that you can't see that the players are whining because they got their asses kicked and can't take it no more. This has nothing to do with any food, any coach or any weight room floor. These guys are trying their darnedst to avoid becoming homecoming bait and were successful at doing so.
Schools without scholarship players had more heart, pride and gusto than the players recruited by Doug.
And as far as White folks are concerned, when have they ever known what goes on at HBCU's and when have they ever done anything about it? They're on the outside looking in.
As far as celebrating them, you're celebrating the players cause some White folks, who know nothing about the situation, seem to be.
Let one of THEIR teams quit on them and see how they'll respond. You don't know White folks as well as you think you do, especially these football junkies in the South.
