In today's HBCU notebook from @knoxrob1.bsky.social:
- A player-turned-coach-turned-player leads a surging Coppin State
- A record breaking 3-point barrage and an ecstatic crowd and broadcast
- Finding calm and clarity over 4,000 miles from home

And much more:

Writing is a privilege. Whenever someone shares their story with you, they offer something sacred: their perspective and truth.

Whether a future NBA icon or an HBCU/mid-major women’s basketball student-athlete grinding in the shadows, every subject deserves dignity.

Life hasn't always been easy for Da'Brya Clark. But, as @knoxrob1.bsky.social writes, she's taken the lessons she's learned and used them to become a talented athlete, successful student and supportive friend:

Wait, the 2nd thing happened??? I have to find it.
Feb 1 began with wondering why a man would get into a ring w/ a toupee,

we proceeded to the president shitting his pants in front of a crowded room,

then Lauryn Hill arranged a masterpiece w/ 3/4 the world’s talent onstage

& we ended with Cher awarding Luther Vandross a Grammy.

Productive day!

Finished reading Allen Iverson's memoir "Misunderstood."

"Misunderstood" is ultimately a meditation on dignity and the tension between identity & perception, and the cost of refusing to let the world define you.

I share my thoughts in my latest blog.

Enjoy my TikTok from last night’s beautiful Unrivaled spectacle. My heart is still radiating with joy. Philly showed up and showed out @theixsports.bsky.social

It was proof that Unrivaled and women’s basketball in Philadelphia are here to stay.

Women’s basketball deserved this moment.

I wrote this 2 years and it's always an important time to share the impact of how HBCU athletes have shined on Super Bowl stage.

Just 1 of many examples: a WR from MVSU was named MVP after a DSU alum caught the game winning TD in Super Bowl XXIII. Enjoy.
