No, Black America would have to make a choice.
Would HBCU athletics actually matter more than Homecomings/Marching Bands?
Would HBCU's bring back vocations to compliment the new influx of attendees?
Would they continue to not hold HBCU admin accountable for their decades of ineptitude?
Would they stop voting democrat for the sake of voting democrat?
and most importantly
Would they give their money to HBCU's like they do the Church?
The real question is... These administrators at HBCU's aren't even trying to compete to get the best black basketball/football recruits KNOWING, how much revenue they can generate by elevating their athletics programs. IF an HBCU had a top 3 basketball recruiting class they would automatically get national coverage and make deep runs into the NCAA's.
They've basically accepted the status quo. When I was in high school, HBCU's only came around after kids realized they wasn't going to a major program.
But a lot of 2 star caliber players do go to HBCU's because they know they will get a lot of playing time.
But again to your point, the management infrastructure needs to change. Most of these administrators mismanaging funds are doing so with small budgets anyway. They probably wouldn't know what to do with a 8 or 9 figure endowment.
