Famous People Who Attended Tennessee State University

Jason Kempin HBCU Pride will always be one of the cornerstones here at Black America Web , and we get much joy in highlighting the contributions of historically Black colleges and universities in any way possible. This time around, we're putting a spotlight on the prestigious Tennessee State University as they celebrate over a century of being one of our culture's go-to institutions for a higher education. We join all Tigers, Lady Tigers, current students, alumni and alumnae alike in giving a huge milestone anniversary shoutout to Tennessee State University! RELATED: Famous People Who Attended Alabama A&M University What proves to be more impressive than TSU's immense century of culture are the extensive amount of famous faces who once walked those historic halls. The amount of college athletes who went on to become Olympic medalists, NBA icons and an almost unbelievable sum of NFL legends is astonishingly impressive to say the least. Oh, and then there's Oprah Winfrey — what else is there to say?! Having the Queen Of Media as an alumna clearly comes with its advantages, and the Class of 2023 got a lesson in that when Lady O spoke at their commencement ceremony. Lucky! Take a look below at an excerpt from her speech that really stood out to us, via Oprah Daily : 'I don't care how hard life after college gets—and it's gonna get hard—we need you to dream big! We need audacious thinkers. Use my example; I was one good TSU teacher—Mr. Cox—and one timely phone call away from a career that would absolutely change my life. That story's not just my own. What dream are you one or two steps away from? We also need generosity of spirit; we need high standards and open minds and untamed imagination. That's how you make a difference in the world. Using who you are and what you stand for to make changes big and small. And there will be times when making the next right decision will be scary. I'll tell you a secret: That's how I've gotten through every challenge without being overwhelmed. By asking what is the next right move. You don't have to know all the right moves—you just need to know the next one.' SEE ALSO Black America Web Featured Video CLOSE

Fans React to Anthony Edwards Getting Adidas Cleats Before Noah Lyles

Fans React to Anthony Edwards Getting Adidas Cleats Before Noah Lyles originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Anthony Edwards continues to rise in popularity as one of the NBA's main attractions, thanks to his on-court performances. He and the Minnesota Timberwolves eliminated the Lakers and Warriors from the playoffs, with superstars LeBron James, Luka Doncic, Steph Curry, and Jimmy Butler forced to watch the other rounds from afar. Advertisement Edwards and his squad couldn't eliminate the Oklahoma City Thunder, but it seems that Minnesota will be a serious contender thanks to Ant-Man and his supporting cast members. And they could receive an upgrade by adding an impressive rookie via the NBA Draft or trading for Kevin Durant during the offseason.

He's got a signature basketball shoe with Adidas with the Anthony Edwards 1 Low, and it's set to expand into another sport. An interesting development recently arrived with Ant's sneaker, as news hit that he and the shoe brand are dropping AE 1 football cleats next year. Advertisement The Nice Kicks X account dropped an early look at the upcoming shoe for the gridiron, and for those wondering, Edwards excelled at youth football in Georgia before switching his focus to hoops. Fan reactions to the AE 1 cleats have seemed mostly positive without knowing how well these shoes will work for football. That said, many individuals couldn't help but mention a fellow USA Olympic athlete. "Noah is not going to like this," a popular comment on the X post said. "Noah Lyles fuming somewhere rn," another X commenter wrote. "Now do it for track and field. I wanna see something real quick," one commenter said. Advertisement "How a NBA player got the best football cleats lol," someone asked in an X comment. Both Edwards and Lyles achieved gold at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics. Ant's came from Team USA basketball, while Lyles won his in the men's 100 metres event. He's touted himself as a "six-time world champion." Earlier this month, former NFL star Cam Newton asked Lyles about the perceived beef or quarrel between him and Edwards. Last year, a video from The Guardian features Lyles calling out Team USA basketball as "world champions of what?" While talking with Newton on his podcast, the track and field star explained his contract situation with Adidas and how he previously expressed interest to them in having a signature shoe like Edwards does. Lyles told Newton that he requires spikes for running and Adidas makes 'some of the best in the world" so he likely wouldn't go with another brand despite his frustration with them. However, the popular shoe company hasn't released a line of signature track and field cleats for him. Advertisement Meanwhile, Ant is adding football cleats in 2026 as he continues to expand his AE 1 offerings with Adidas.

Claressa Shields clarifies Angel Reese comments after BET Awards

The post Claressa Shields clarifies Angel Reese comments after BET Awards appeared first on ClutchPoints. Though the Chicago Sky are struggling, Angel Reese is thriving. At the BET Awards, Reese joined Serena Williams as the only two athletes to win Sportswoman of the Year three times. Advertisement Reese was nominated alongside Dawn Staley, Coco Gauff, Simone Biles, A'ja Wilson, and Claressa Shields. Speaking of Shields, the legendary boxer took to social media to express a perceived discontent at not winning. 'Still don't know how I didn't win the Sportswoman of the Year for the BET Awards, but Congrats to Angel Reese and all the other nominees. I just thought accolades mattered,' she posted on X. Immediately, some interpreted that as a slight towards Reese. However, Shields cleared up her remarks, per Brandon 'Scoop B.' Robinson of Scoop B. Radio. In an exclusive interview with Robinson, Shields said she was not just trying to dismiss Reese but rather exuding confidence in herself. Advertisement 'I'm not joining in on any hate train when it comes to Angel Reese,' she said. 'I have mad respect for her and all the other female athletes that excel in their sport,' she wrote in a follow-up tweet. 'As for my earlier comments, I am allowed to express my feelings. I was shocked I didn't win. I was under the impression the category was graded on accolades of your sport. It's OK to be a competitor.' Later on, Shields said she saw herself in Reese and called out media attempts to drive a wedge between Black women. 'Anything that we do—good, bad—we say something, wear something; they're all down our throats,' Shields said. 'Grown men, grown women constantly judging us, trolling us, trying to break our will and make us not be confident. And I think we both experience that. Being Black women, they attack us every single day. When I see her getting it and I go through it myself, I'm clapping for myself and clapping for her, because she just keeps going. I actually hate that it looks like I joined the Angel Reese hate train.' Claressa Shields and Angel Reese are trailblazers Since coming into the WNBA, Reese has received hateful comments, especially online, thus leading to a greater effort for the WNBA to prioritize player safety in that realm. Advertisement Despite that, Reese is emerging as a consequential and accomplished WNBA player. She's set records in rebounding and double-doubles. In addition, Reese is an NCAA champion, WNBA All-Star, All-Rookie Team member, and SEC Player of the Year in 2024. She's also cultivating a brand that emphasizes authenticity in the worlds of basketball, fashion, and financial empowerment. Meanwhile, Shields is a trailblazer in the boxing world. The two-time Olympic gold medalist is the only female boxer to win Best Boxer at the ESPYs. Furthermore, Shields is a three-time winner of the Women's Sports Foundation's Sportswoman of the Year and also has an undefeated 16-0 record to her name.
