Nah. If they have the disciplines they can go to Carolina Polytechnic Institute or Carolina Tech for short.

I guess there isn't a Carolina Tech. I still like ECU. If USC (Southern Cal) can get by...

I like East Carolina. I feel like Carolina Tech sounds like a for-profit, online university.

Not if you give it a more official sounding version of the name: N.C. Tech

North Carolina Institute of Technology

We already have one of those too!

North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics is the nation's first public residential high school focused on science, technology, engineering, and math.
We challenge and inspire talented students from across North Carolina through a residential campus, online program, summer STEM enrichment programs, and distance offerings for schools and educators.

Fool proof plan...

Step 1...take the Eastern portion of the state and secede from the rest of North Carolina.

Step 2...rename the school the University of East Carolina.

Now it's a flagship in a state all it's own.

If they go through all that, they deserve to be in a power conference

The impetus for that would be the SEC offering ECU and the NC BOT forcing the Pirates to say no.

I'm pretty sure NC State is the 'Tech' school for the state
