17 years and no NCAA tournaments. He may not be a bad coach, but he's certainly not "very good."

Outside of 2010 what is your excuse? And save us your stories about how great you were in the 1980s. Those victories have expired, the Guy Lewis era is long dead. But I'm not telling you anything you don't already know. You basically have done nothing for the last 20 years. Your glass house needs a 20+ year upgrade.

I honestly think some of those Penders teams would have made the dance if the AAC would have existed at the time. Under Penders, Houston was beating Memphis, Louisville, LSU, Kentucky, etc.

victories dont expire our final 4's still count in the record books and our our banner still hang....sorry to inform you

Guy Lewis isnt dead

and weve made a tourney and numerous NITs in the last 20 years,

and secondly no one is comparing school histories but the credentials of the coaches... he said lebo has been a coach for 17 years and has never made a tourney....the majority of that wasnt at ECU, so not sure why this is about UH, when he was talking coaches

now if you want to talk coaches, including this year our coach has made the tourney every year but 2 for the last 14 years he was a head coach...

I'm not the one claiming to be "very good."

Sampson has a chance to build something "very good" at Houston, but he hasn't done it yet.

Penders was pretty good at Houston, especially considering the resources available. 2 NITs, 2 CBIs and 1 NCAA in six years. 20 wins a season. But he wasn't "very good."

Maybe he learned how to run a program after he left UAB, but after what we were left with after we fired him, good luck to whoever hires him.

I really don't think Davis was the problem.

look at UAB since he's left.

look at Texas Southern since he's been there.

honestly, I think Tulane would do well under a coach like Mike Davis or even Larry Davis.

We won the CUSA tournament and are going to the NCAA's this year. You do understand that Davis left 6 players on our roster. The tallest player being 6'6". No one was going to win under those circumstances.

Haase won more CUSA tourney games this week than Davis did in his entire tenure at UAB.

why are you ecu guys so easily overreactive and oversensitive

there was no ill will just my honest analysis, remove the ECU label...

lets say a bottom team with a 220+ rpi with no touted recruits coming in, a not very touted roster, a long running coach with no top level credential of elite success, while playing in a top level league where most teams out recruit them...do you see them making drastic improvements the next year??

outside of being a homer for that team and just plain hope ..whats the reason ??

please believe if ecu was bringing in some espn 100 players or had an elite coach with a proven track record id evaluate differently ...

and football i think ecu wont be as bad as some people think, but how can you look at your schedule and not think ECU will struggle to get 6 wins, its more a testiment to you schedule

ecu will only be favored going into the season vs towson, smu, tulsa, uconn and usf
you are only going to be favored preseason for 5games

our full of **** might be reality

You obviously have not done research on our recruits or needs. You're opinion is invalid

I don't know how to judge Lebo. This team was the result of two straight seasons of devastating loses on the team.

I'm also not down on the big men. Ngeze and Guillmette haven't had a substantial season with an offseason here. They will improve.

every recruiting site already did..so i dont need to...

you are taking this personally, why? im not sure....this wasnt an insult....just an honest analysis..everyone feels they have top recruits, so your research is more invalid than theres who is impartial

could they be great? who knows ..i never said they couldnt be...just said "on paper" judging from how they were rated from the recruiting sites ...

your homer opinion is invalid
