Phillip Wood named ED of Pirate Club
Another meh hire. Haven't really seen any stats on his fundraising efforts, but if we were going to just pull from NC State, we probably already had an AD on staff that could have filled the role.

RE: Phillip Wood named ED of Pirate Club
Here's a few stats from ecupirates.com.
He also recently served as the Wolfpack Club's campaign chairman in the association's $210 million contribution to a university-wide $1.6-billion capital effort entitled "Think and Do the Extraordinary."
During his tenure at NC State, Wood has led successful fundraising efforts totaling $60 million in new capital construction and facilities improvements. The projects included Reynolds Coliseum renovations and the creation of the Walk of Fame and History ($35 million), Close-King Indoor Football Practice Facility ($17.2 million), Carol Johnson Poole Clubhouse ($6 million) and the Dail Basketball Practice Facility ($1.5 million).
Wood established new revenue generation through the creation of premium seating opportunities at Carter-Finley Stadium and PNC Arena. He managed the construction and sales efforts of the 112-seat loge box area in Carter-Finley Stadium's Vaughn Towers. In addition, he administered a new courtside seat configuration of the Courtside Club for men's basketball games at PNC Arena with a projected annual revenue of $800,000.

That is a problem with ECU athletics, but we expect to eventually beat it.

You should care. Our Athletic Department is in shambles and worst than when we had Hamrick.

RE: Phillip Wood named ED of Pirate Club
Maybe it's not Phillip Wood named ED. Maybe it's supposed to be Ed Wood named Phillip.
Ed Wood was the greatest filmmaker of the 20th century. ( Plan 9 from Outer Space)
He was portrayed in a biopic by Johnny Depp.
Johnny Depp is Captain Jack Sparrow, a Pirate.
Johnny Depp is also broke.
See how this works?
