BALTIMORE, Maryland -- Morgan State’s 61-0 rout of Virginia-Lynchburg on Sept. 19 at Hughes Stadium in Baltimore is not recognized by the NCAA after it was determined this past summer that Virginia-Lynchburg did not meet the collegiate body’s accreditation standards and is on the NCAA’s list of noncountable opponents.That means little to Lee Hull.
Speaking during his weekly conference call arranged Tuesday morning by the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference, the Bears coach dismissed the notion that Saturday’s game against league foe Savannah State could be viewed as the school’s true home-opening contest.
“Virginia-Lynchburg was our home opener,” Hull said. “We played the game. Like I said before, there were two teams there, and we played the game, and there was a score. So that was our home opener. This is our home opener in the MEAC, if you want to say that. Personally, we count that game because we played it. So we consider ourselves 3-2 and 2-0 in the league. So we’re going to go out and treat this as another home opener and play the game.”
