Top 100 of 100 years

By T&D Staff

As part of the ongoing 100th anniversary celebration of South Carolina State football, the school will begin today announcing the names on its list of the top 100 players in school history.

The first 34 names will be shown on the electronic scoreboard during the SCSU/Winston-Salem State contest. The next 32 names will be revealed during the nationally televised Oct. 13 game against Florida A&M and the final 34 for the Oct. 27 "Homecoming" game against Delaware State.

During the weekend of Nov. 9-10, those living players or representatives of the deceased on the list will be honored at a banquet as part of "Extravaganza Friday" the night before the Morgan State game. They will also be presented to the crowd during the game.
