I know Morehouse has a nationwide alumni base, so maybe there will be a decent turnout. I think they should keep Central State as a regular participant for this game. An out of conference neutral site D2 game isn't a draw. Central State definitely had more fans on their side of the stadium than Winston last season (at least that's what I saw watching it on TV). If they care about actually getting people in the stadium for the game, Central State may need to be a part of the equation.
This game is backed by the NFL and has a built in TV contract with the NFL Network, so unlike a lot of other classics it isn't relying on ticket sales. I actually like that this affords them the opportunity to invite a rotation of schools. They have had FCS matchups and they have had D2 matchups and I believe Morehouse is the only repeat invite so far.
I know that having a packed crowd looks better on TV, but at least some schools are getting national air time that normally wouldn't.
