The AAC will be his nightmare. This season is his pinnacle. It's all downhill from here.
Unless you call going to the CTI a success. Maybe if Lebo schedules 10 wins OOC he will get a bonus by going to the CTI.
Dude get a life and stop hating on a coach cause he coach at a certain school. Learn some facts and talk about subject objectively so you will stop looking like such an a**hat.
ECU hasn't sniffed the NCAA since 1993, when we made it with a losing record by winning the CAA Tourny. We have had virtually zero success. Now, Lebo is entering his 4th season and ECU is riding a program best 3 year stretch in terms of wins. Lebo got us our first winning season in 14 years, first C-USA conference tournament win, first ever bye, First ever post season tournament win and championship. For the first time in our program's history we are showing real signs of life. We still have a ways to go, but we are far better today than the 6-10 win seasons we had grown used to.
Several of you UAB fans said he wouldn't even be able to what he done so far when we hired him. So, keep it up, maybe your helping. But, so far he is hands down the most successful coach we've ever had. He's got a ways to go to pass Tom Quinn on be the all time winningest coach, but he's already done far better than Dave Odom (of Wake Forrest fame), Joe Dooley, and Bill Herrion.

Is Lebo's father still on the sidelines ?
Not here at ECU, though I think he is coaching or an assistant coach at a local HS.

Kinda looks to me like Lebo must have taken your lunch money and your girlfriend.
Suppose you already realize he is 4-3 over UAB right ?

You do realize that 3-4 will become 4-4 soon right?

I'm just tired of hearing from a couple of ECU fans trashing everybody else and knighting Lebo. It's not much fun having to hear all that crap.
But the facts are Lebo has not been successful. He was fired from Auburn.
The continual spin about ECU is numbing.

RE: CUSA Basketball 12/8
What? I gave my opinion and the fact that Lebo has never been to the NCAA in his entire coaching career as head coach. 15 + yrs. I pointed out that ECU fans are happy with him and my opinion that he would never go to NCAA's at ECU. What was out of context?

There are not a couple of ECU fans trashing everybody else and knighting Lebo. Most ECU fans don't even write much about the other teams in CUSA, because this is ECU's last year in CUSA and no ECU fan can realistically expect that ECU is going to compete for the league title due to all of the injuries, youth, lack of size and transfers. Most of us are just happy that Lebo has the players competing as hard as they can. We are not baiting any other fan base; but I can understand how some posters can think that they are being baited. But in all honesty some of the ECU posters are just refuting erroneous statements made by other schools posters, which are made by those posters in reaction to the baiting that they are receiving from a notorious pot stirrer. But then again UAB has a notorious pot stirrer too unless you are knowingly turning a blind eye to the dumb antics of Bamascorpio.

Another MT player 'removed' from the program - this time, it's Eric Wortham, a promising freshman. I'm getting sick and tired of some of the things happening behind the scenes. I remember CLEARLY saying it before - something has to give. Gah.

Hey Ole Blue,
In a UM (Dah U) v. MT bball game, who wins? UM lost to UCF and FAU beat UCF, I believe. Not that this means anything but what the heck. What are your thoughts. And who do you root for? I'm sure you have been asked a dozen times before so I hope one more doesn't bother the others or you.

Not sure if he should've been removed (UNLESS oone or more were physical) BUT he def should've been suspended.

Probably MT. UM is so inconsistent this year - a loss to UCF is not good (losses to VT, GW, and St. Francis are also bad), and they have proven again and again that they can't win close games. MT is better than UM in my opinion and would win. Experience is better for MT, and UM is just too young. I say MT, in a close one.

GW is pretty good right now. I don't think they're a bad loss for the 'Canes.
