A vote of ????????
This just in today from A&T Chancellor Stanley Battle:
To the North Carolina A&T State University Family
We have experienced a very difficult football season this year. The review of all athletic programs is well under way. There is considerable room for improvement in all athletics at A&T. I fully support our football program.
A&T appreciates your consistent and continued support for our athletic programs and our student athletes.
Stanley F. Battle
Chancellor
The football team just completed its second winless season in a row. If I were the coach, I'd be more than a little nervous.

Actually, I think Battle should get credit for not replacing the coach. A&T has more important priorities than wasting time and energy on this issue. If more college presidents had the courage to resist alumni pressure and put football in its proper perspective, we'd all be better off.

You raise a good point, David.
From what I can tell, Dr. Battle seems a lot less fixated on athletics than Jim Renick, even though Battle is a former football player.
