ECU #69 on Orlando Sentinel Countdown - Chappy - 06-18-2013 08:20 AM
Quote:East Carolina has a potentially explosive offense after Carden and Hardy showed they were capable of being big-time playmakers last season. This is a team that will be a constant big-play threat, and could not only challenge for a Conference USA title in their last season in the league, but also put a scare in nonconference opponents Virginia Tech and North Carolina in the first few weeks of the season. Much will depend on an improved defense this fall.

Nice. I think we're better than #69, but it's good to see some folks recognize how explosive our O will be. I think the only reason we're not in the 40 range (Like we are with Phil Steele) is because of the uncertainty surrounding our D. But Rick Smith will undoubtedly fix the D.

Until our defense answers a few questions anywhere between 50-80 is probably a fair place to have this team in the preseason. If we can get our ppg allowed under 30 I think this team will win at least 9 games. The defense does not need to be special, it just needs to not be terrible.

Better than 69. I'd say upper 40's to 50.
RE: ECU #69 on Orlando Sentinel Countdown - NBPirate - 06-18-2013 10:21 AM
yeah, 69 seems high considering I think we win 9-11 games this year.

84th??? Really? This poll is garbage.

Mods.....Might as well move this to smack.
Fellow Pirates.......might as well stop posting here.

Both the Pirates and The Herd have to see how the Ds come along before any of us have any clue on how we will do.

Which is why these rankings are useless until Summer camp starts. Everybody on every team has to get to September and then we will see.

All I know is that Marshall/ECU in Huntington is going to be a good one.

The whole "I hope Greenville & ECU burns to the ground" comment he made is still fresh in our minds. Once again, ECU is the bad guy.

I don't remember that comment... but quit whining like you're the innocent victim. You guys seem to enjoy poking the bear and then crying foul when the bear strikes back.
There's nothing wrong with message board conflicts... they keep it interesting. Just handle them like grown men and not like whiny children.

People act this way about ECU just because there are more of us than anyone else and therefore have more bad apples.
