BREAKING NEWS: Leadership Transition at an HBCU22 Aug 202500:03:42

Send us a text

Breaking news from Howard University shakes up the HBCU leadership landscape as President Ben Vincent III announces he'll step down as the institution's 18th president effective August 31st, 2025. This surprise Friday announcement from the Board of Trustees marks a significant moment for one of America's premier historically Black universities.

During his tenure, Dr. Vincent prioritized advancing Howard's strategic initiatives in cutting-edge fields like artificial intelligence and data science while expanding global engagement opportunities for students. Board Chair Leslie D. Hale formally acknowledged Dr. Vincent's contributions, expressing gratitude for his service and leadership while wishing him well in future endeavors. Dr. Vincent himself reflected that his primary focus has always been the Howard community's well-being and success, noting that he plans to spend time with family and continue his research after departing.

The transition brings a familiar face back to Howard's leadership. Dr. Wayne Frederick, the university's highly-regarded 17th president and current president emeritus, will step in as interim president while the board conducts its search for the next permanent leader. Dr. Frederick's previous presidency was marked by significant academic advancements and athletic program growth, making him a trusted figure to guide the university through this period of change. Presidential transitions at HBCUs carry special significance in higher education, and having Dr. Frederick's steady hand at the helm should provide continuity during what could otherwise be a challenging time.

What qualities should Howard University seek in its next leader? How might this change impact Howard's trajectory in the coming years?

Verified Sources with SJG: HBCU Champions Defend the CIAA : Inside Virginia Union Football22 Aug 202500:32:00

Send us a text

Dr. Alvin Parker opens up about the dramatic shifts reshaping college football while balancing his dual identity as championship-winning coach and published author. With remarkable candor, he recounts walking off the field after Virginia Union's Elite Eight playoff loss feeling confident with 13 returning starters, only to lose 17 players to the transfer portal just two weeks later.

Rather than lamenting these departures, Parker embraces a refreshingly positive perspective. "I promise every guy when they came to Virginia Union, I promise all of them you'll leave here better than you were when you came," he explains. This player-centered philosophy has helped Parker navigate college football's new business reality while maintaining Virginia Union's success with back-to-back CIAA championships and a stellar 51-15 record during his tenure.

The conversation delves into Parker's second book, "Play for 11 Leadership," which distills leadership lessons applicable beyond sports into business and education. Drawing from his background as a journalism major and his doctoral education, Parker offers unique insights into building sustainable success despite constant change. He discusses adapting from purely player development to roster management, maintaining program culture despite coaching turnover, and observing the CIAA's evolution from defensive to offensive-focused programs.

What emerges is a blueprint for principled leadership amid unprecedented change. Whether discussing potential career opportunities, celebrating players advancing to higher levels, or analyzing conference trends, Parker demonstrates how to maintain core values while embracing evolution. For anyone interested in leadership, college athletics, or building successful organizations in turbulent environments, Parker's journey offers invaluable lessons on balancing tradition with transformation.

HBCU Homecoming: The Coach Who Couldn't Say No22 Aug 202500:10:04

Send us a text

Dreams sometimes arrive at unexpected moments. For Coach Toriano Morgan, the call to return to Tennessee State University—his alma mater where he earned both his bachelor's and master's degrees—came at what seemed like an inopportune time. Yet when your dream job beckons, timing becomes secondary.

Morgan candidly shares the whirlwind 48 hours that led to his transition from head coach at Edward Waters University to co-offensive coordinator and running backs coach at Tennessee State. Despite speculation about possible dissension at EWU, Morgan sets the record straight, expressing profound gratitude toward the institution that gave him his first collegiate head coaching opportunity. "EWU has been nothing but outstanding to me and my family," he emphasizes, noting the support he received to build the program.

His coaching philosophy reveals a leader confident enough to surround himself not with yes-men, but with experienced coaches offering diverse perspectives. This approach not only served him well at Edward Waters but ensured the program remained in capable hands with interim head coach Brian Jenkins following his departure. Morgan reunites with head coach Reggie Barlow, with whom he previously worked at Virginia State University, creating a seamless transition built on established trust. "Everywhere he goes he doesn't just win, he wins championships," Morgan notes about Barlow.

As Tennessee State prepares to defend their Ohio Valley Conference championship, Morgan brings valuable experience and a methodical "brick by brick" approach to building on last year's success. With his sights set on their opener against North Carolina A&T, and his long-term aspiration to eventually lead an HBCU Division I program, Morgan's homecoming to TSU represents both a full-circle moment and an exciting new chapter for Big Blue Tigers football. Follow Coach Morgan's journey this season as he helps Tennessee State pursue another championship run!

Verified Sources with SJG: Beyond the Scoreboard22 Aug 202500:48:17

Send us a text

A powerful alliance has emerged in the world of Black college athletics. The "HBCU For Us" association brings together the four major HBCU athletic conferences—CIAA, SIAC, MEAC, and SWAC—creating a unified front to navigate the rapidly changing landscape of collegiate sports. This groundbreaking collaboration couldn't come at a more critical moment, as the transfer portal and NIL era have fundamentally altered the power dynamics between student-athletes and institutions.

Steven J. Gaither dives deep into what this alliance might mean practically for HBCU athletics, suggesting it could lead to more coordinated scheduling of events like media days and create a "brain trust" approach to prevent predatory business arrangements that have historically plagued Black college sports. "A lot of folks who are in charge at our conferences and our schools sometimes run into people who...see all these great opportunities and they see people who are desperate for money or desperate for exposure," Gaither explains, highlighting how this alliance might serve as a protective mechanism against exploitative deals.

The conversation shifts to player loyalty in an era of unprecedented mobility, featuring an illuminating interview with Jackson State quarterback Jacoby Morgan. Despite having transfer options, Morgan chose to remain at JSU, stating: "I'm a loyalty guy... I love this city, I love Jackson, I love the team and everything they bring. I'm a hometown kid so I want to be a legend there." His perspective offers a refreshing counterpoint to the mercenary approach that has become increasingly common in college athletics.

As the 2024 HBCU football season approaches—just three weeks away—the community continues engaging in passionate debates about program legacies and classifications. A viral social media post categorizing Division I HBCU football programs into tiers sparked intense discussion about what constitutes a "blue blood" program and whether historical achievements from decades ago should carry the same weight as recent success. The conversation reveals both the deep pride in HBCU football tradition and the recognition that program strength is constantly evolving in the modern era.
