Dubois is constantly deflecting the serious questions and giving excuses like "Mens soccer is doing great" or "Judy just started up women's golf". News flash Dubois, you could be winning conference championships and maybe even a national championship in those other sports and no one will care for more than a day. Coastal Carolina won a national title in baseball (arguably the 3rd most important sport) and most people would never know that. Those other sports are just there to create an athletic spectrum for schools to compete at multiple sports, but the reality is that they are at the end of the spectrum. Football and basketball are what bring fans together, plain and simple. They are the reason you would drive 10+ hours to go to a bowl game. Shell out tons your own money on donations, tailgating, merchandise, tickets, etc. to show pride in your school and just for a hope that your team will be great some day. Its true that despite all this, some teams will struggle. But when they do you have to make changes to show the fans that you are not complacent and actually care about your program. I get that starting a football program is not an easy task especially at this level. However it really cant get any worse, Charlotte football has been basically the worst team in FBS for 4 years and its not getting better an time soon. Its time to move on from Lambert, and give someone else a shot. As an ODU alum, some are arguing for Bobby Wilders firing and he just went 5-7 with more injuries than I have ever seen on a team. I could not imagine going 1-11, but I do know that he would be fired if he did despite having a great record to this point and being one of the best startups in college football history. So what has Brad Lambert done to retain his job? I have no idea. College football and basketball are ugly businesses sometimes but that is reality. It seems like Judy Rose and Dubois are not in touch with reality. I hope one day Charlotte can field great programs in basketball and football, ODU and Charlotte will most likely be in the same conference for a long time. I am really hoping yall make some changes and can get back what you once had.
Worst team in FBS this year? Probably. 4 years. No. We just completed year 3 in FBS. Also, We went 4-8 in 2016 including road wins at usm and Marshall. Not sure how we could be considered the worst last year, probably not even in year 1(2015) since we beat a bowl team on the road that year.
Ok since 2015 because that is when you moved to FBS. You are 7-29, tied for 2nd to last in FBS with Texas State and Oregon St. The only team with a worse record is Kansas at 3-33 since 2015. If you had to play Texas State, Kansas or Oregon St I think they would be favored in all the games. I'd say it doens't get much worse than that.
