CIAA Media Day: Livingstone’s preseason ranking will be motivation

WINSTON-SALEM, North Carolina  --  Livingstone football players reporting to camp on August 12 will find an unwelcome surprise in their locker.

It’ll be a sheet of paper with the CIAA predicted final standings and it’ll show Livingstone picked to finish 11th in the 12-team league and last in the Southern Division.

New coach Daryl Williams is a realist, but he was a little surprised at the ranking during CIAA Media Day at Winston-Salem State on Thursday.


The favorite word in his vocabulary is “standard.” You find out quickly the requirements at Livingstone are different now. Williams’ business card states at the bottom ‘The standard is the standard.’

“We’ve created a standard throughout our whole building,” Williams said. “We always say ‘Did you meet the standard?’ ”
