Ram Ramblings: WSSU is rounding into championship form

CLEVELAND, Ohio  –  OK, maybe Winston-Salem State is as good as it was last season when it won 14 straight games before losing to Valdosta State in the Division II national championship.

I’ve kind of held back from comparing last season’s team, which was the best in school history, with the current team. But from what I saw on Saturday afternoon at Cleveland Browns Stadium this current Rams team is rounding into shape.

The Rams steamrolled the highly-touted Tuskegee Tigers 35-13 in a dominating performance.
Coach Connell Maynor keeps telling anybody who will listen, and I do usually listen to him, that it would take some time for them to jell.

After the game several players told me about two ‘players’ only’ meetings held recently. One of them was the week after the loss to UNC Pembroke and the other one was Friday night at their hotel.
