Where The Spice?

As everyone knows, Popeye's has been booming lately with their rerelease of the Popeye's Chicken Sandwich.

There has been turmoil over the sandwich the past couple of weeks its been out, customers and employers are experiencing first hand of the debacle.

I had the chance to enjoy the chicken sandwich for the second time around during class for a food review.  The first time I had the sandwich is was worth the hype, this time, I can't say the same.

Originally I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich and it tasted everything but spicy.  When I first bit into the sandwich it was thick, juicy, and it did taste good.

Popeyes Spicy Sandwich 

The first go around, I had an original sandwich and then I experienced the spicy sandwich and I tasted no difference.

I purchased two chicken sandwiches and ended up given the second one to a teammate because I wasn't feeling it.

My classmate, Reggie also purchased two and had this to say:

" I thought the chicken sandwich was "ight" and it wasn't as spicy as I thought it was going to be, but it was bigger than what I thought it was going to be, but it was good, I'm not going to lie"

Maybe Popeyes got complacent with the sandwich or maybe there wasn't any spice to begin with, but the sandwich is good, but not worth the hype.

A New Beginning for SC State Track and Field

New South Carolina State Head Coach Jerod Wims is now in the position to bring more success to our new program.  Wims is from Miami, Florida and attended college at Florida International University before transferring to Auburn University.  He was also a sprinter who also played football. He was apart of the NFL Regional Combine in 2014.  Before his tenure at SC State, he was the Head Track and Field/Cross Country coach at Mercer University.  They didn’t have a Men’s Track Team, only a Women’s, so he’ll look to take advantage of having both, men and female athletes.

Q: What convinced you to come to Sc State?

A: The potential and the possibility of being a national ranked team at some point and the success of what you guys had going on the past few years. and what I saw what I was able to bring to the table

Q: What are your first year goals for the team and as a coach

A: Run fast and build on what happened in the last few years and I know we had two who went to the professional level here and I want to break records that they were on relays with and not even replacing them but making our guys better.

Q: Do you Notice any differences between your athletes here compared to Mercer?

A: the only real difference is that at the backside of my career, I recruited them. It’s harder to have guys buy into the program while having a coaching change.

Q: If there’s one thing you dislike about coaching, what would it be?

A: the inability to control everything and one of my downfalls is that I had a hard time delegating roles.

Q: How excited are you for this season?

A: I’m very excited man, I feel like we can definitely make a big run in the MEAC this year. We are coming for A&T at the top and that’s why I’m here, to win.

Interview Tips for Career Week

College graduates are on the brink of adulthood, ready to start their careers, and live a successful life.

As a college student, you want to have a great first impression on your future employer.  College students look to be employed by a job that they want, rather than what they need.

Expert author and interview coach, Don Georgovich has given insight on the proper ways to conduct an interview and leave a great impression on the interviewer.

When being interviewed, there are five “Don’ts” that you want to adhere by, which could cause your interview to flop.

“You get labeled as cancerous when u go talking smack about the company that you’ve been with,” Georgevich said.

It’s usual that the people that are unemployed tend to have a desperation during the interview.  Doing this won’t leave a good look on the employers

“You want to talk about how you have done it and talk about the details and all the leadership will come to light,” Georgevich said.

While being interviewed, you want you be confident with your answers and show how you have done the qualities that you would bring to the company.
”Don’t say to any interview that you don’t know how to do this or that, you do want to say, let me think about this for a second and connect that to something similar,” said Georgevich.

Two competency questions can ruin the interview. 

”If you don’t know about the fundamentals that you do, then you don’t know what you do,” said Georgevich.

Going into an interview the most professional way is to do research on the company, and don’t ask the interviewer, what they do.  This can turn off the interviewer because it’ll make it look like the potential employee isn’t taking the job serious.


5 Tips:

1. Don’t talk bad about company 
2. Don’t go in with desperation
3.  Don’t say you’re a self oriented person 
4. Don’t say you can’t do something 
5. Don’t ask what the company does

BNNs New Vision


South  Carolina State University’s Communications department invested into new tools to make Bulldog News Now better than ever before.

Thursday, September 19th will be the first airing of BNN for this semester and they have big things to look forward to this year.

Mr. Justin Smith a professor at SC State is the now the Faculty Mentor in charge of running BNN after the departure of Ms.  Tywanna Pryor.

The team transitioned from an older tri caster to a newer V Mix technology.  The V Mix can play at least three channels at a time where as the tri caster can only play one at a time.

“ The V-Mix is all app based, and all in the computer and more professional and easier than images of a real studio” said, Smith.


BNN has had major changes to the set, while also adding a new audio board, and two new monitors. 

“ The Tri-caster wasn’t compatible with social media and we had to manually convert it over”   “We are more high tech now, and social media wise, we are ready for the web because we are able to stream.” Said, Smith.

Sc State communications students are responsible for running the social media apps, which are through Facebook and Youtube.  The V-mix also allows to stream both software’s simultaneously.

“BNN is a real opportunity to get a real life experience and just like an internship, it allows you to get an insight of real life experiences.”
