Show some serious improvement in football.

Longer term I'd say rework OOC football scheduling to make it more balanced and reasonable. 1 FCS, 1 G5, 1 mid level P5, 1 major P5.

And WBB. AD Compher isn't going anywhere for a while so learn to love it. Barring some God sent miraculous transformation for Lebo this year, ECU needs to get rid of him no mater the cost. Baseball should be okay. Football I have hope for but this still might not be the year to go bowling. Pirate Club has a new ED Wood and needs some major reorganization. Get the financials in order.

I get why a lot of the forum is dumping on ECU, and it starts at Compher's desk.

With being located in North Carolina (the mecca of college hoops) and having the best football program in the state, there's no reason as to why ECU is struggling other than poor leadership. This is pretty much the problem that Rutgers has had for decades (and I hope ECU can realize and fix it before following in their footsteps). The President who just extended Compher's contract is enemy #1 IMO.

I partially agree on Chancellor Staton, piss poor move giving Compher his backing. Terrible for our athletic department at a crucial time for us and the conference. On the flip side Staton is doing a great job leading the university. I find no fault in the man in the academic arena.
