No...college production matters but you said we had 2 three stars and 1 2 star. Most everyone we get is 3 star. Don't understand the comment. You're assuming you have more talent. I don't know how you're making that assumption?

With my eyeballs

Yeah the most talented team usually loses by 20 lol you're in denial

We beat UNC 70-41 in football last year. Were we more talented, no. But we cared way more than they did. This team gave up 2 weeks ago

Well, you completely switched sports, and Im not going to go into how football and basketball are fundamentally different. When you beat UCF in basketball, you're the more talented team. But when you lose, you're still more talented, it's just that you didn't care anymore and weren't trying. Got it. Moral victory! LOL

Man are a few ECU fans in this thread making everyone look bad.

Oh my bad, I forgot about the fundamental differences. That changes everything

Look at the scores and quality of opponent before we played UCF the first time, and compare it to after. Nevermind the fact we aren't even playing defense anymore.

Stop...you're grasping. If you think your team is more talented, then just enjoy being one of the few that would think that. Ucf isn't great but we are steadily improving. Next year we bring back everyone outside of walker and Blair who isnt playing much. We get BJ back to have a legit PG.

Looking at the schedule, quality of opponent, and scores, I see an ecu team that plays much better at home vs on the road. Looks like you have yet to win a road game so far this year. Could explain the close game when we played at ecu and the not so close game at UCF. Maybe, just maybe, UCF is a better team this year than ecu. Or your version, where ecu is clearly more talented and should have won before even playing, but just wasn't trying.

The players ARENT trying!

Quit being delusional. They beat us at Minges and in Orlando. So to say we weren't trying isn't really an excuse.
You're just reaching if you think we are head and shoulders above UCF.

I'm not talking about the ECU/UCF pissing match. I'm talking the team has given up on Lebo.

Little Rock is currently having a spat with the state's largest paper because they refuse to call them Little Rock and continue to use UALR. (Wild guess is the University of Arkansas is insisting this)

As for student relations, he bought and paid for a charter bus out of his own pocket to transport students to games at Central Arkansas and Arkansas State free of charge, so he certainly does well in that regard. He's also personally bought tickets for first time fans interested in attending a game.

Trojan fans love him.
