What is the best HBCU State NC, GA, VA, etc.?

Now there are a lot of HBCU's in different states. But what state has the best HBCU's overall. North Carolina has my vote: St. Aug North Carolina Central Winston Salem Fayettville Livingstone Elizabeth City A & T Bennett Shaw Johnson C Smith

Neither one! :twisted:

Well even tho the best HBCU is in VA no doubt :wink: I have to give it up to NC! No state comes close to as many HBCUs as NC, regardless of how many are in one city. Hell, A&T alone probably has more students than all the AUC schools combined, and thats not exaggeration. And I know the person wasn't serious about the CIAA Tourney not being bigger than some all star game? Clearly you've never been. ITS HUGE, ITS SERIOUS, celebrities and parties everywhere. Im disappointed more black college students don't know about this. Im from Raleigh, so I know that even Ebony magazine hails it as one of the largest black events on the East Coast, the second (maybe third now) largest b-ball tournament in the country after the ACC (also in NC :wink: ). And yes the CIAA, the oldest HBCU conference, (with 9/13 schools in NC) is legendary and very historical. The schools in NC are just as well known as those in GA and I dont know too many folks outside of GA that know much or anything about Ft. Valley, Albany, or Savannah- not bein funny, just real.

Let's be real. I don't go to school in NC, but I admit that its DEFINITELY the best STATE for HBCU's. Im sorry, but if you haven't heard of the CIAA, you are not in touch with HBCU's, or even black culture like you need to be. The CIAA Tournament is the 3rd largest Tournament in the NATION of ALL college basketball tournaments. Check out an Ebony Magazine or something. Don't even compare that to some All-Star game that didn't even fill up a real arena. As far as GA HBCU's...I think you have to be there to know about any of the ones outside of the AUC, cuz people north of SC don't know about them. Truthfully, the AUC schools are the only ones that count in GA...and one of those has no accreditation. So, again NC gets my vote. ATL (not the whole state of GA) gets a distant second for reputation alone.
