You must not have attended UNCW when ECU was still in the conference.
Correct... I graduated in 2010.
The hatred was in everyone's blood who attended games when they were in conference. We hated them, they hated us!

I graduated in '08, and ECU was # 1 on my hate list even though they were long gone from the league.
Maryland was # 2, though that's waned a bit ever since Gary Williams retired.

Graduated last year and have always hated EZU! Parents graduated from UNCW in 1991 so they passed that disdain for the pirates down to me

you probably attended a baseball game or 2 in G vegas, that would increase the hate for sure.

Just 1 game, actually! And it was a doozie. I think the final was 16-14 Seahawks, game took over 4.5 hours.
We got the tickets from Andrew Cain's Dad, so we were sitting behind the plate, a few rows back. 4 teal jerseys in a sea of purple, lol. Yeah....we took a lot of heat. But we won, so....

Terrible era, but I think we name it the wrong thing. Rather than it being the "Benny Moss era", which infers it was all his fault, I prefer to think of it as the "DePaolo-Mehrtens era".
Moss wasn't a good coach and not a great hire at all by Capaccio, but the Chancellor-AD combo were the reasons this program was set back for nearly the next decade.
Either way, it was miserable.

Capaccio-DePaolo-Mehrtens era
Capaccio ran off Brownell while Depaolo allowed it because she didn't know what she was doing.

^^This^^, plus DePaolo ran off a pefectly competent female athletic director and was made Mehrtens a "must hire" for ideological reasons.
As an aside, Capaccio was a GREAT fundraiser...and a frustrated basketball coach himself.
Fun fact: Which coach has the record for longest winning streak in men's college basketball history? John Wooden? Wrong...it's Mike Capaccio's 89 game winning streak (shared with another coach) at Indian Hills Community College. Brownell wasn't doing things the way that he would have done them, and I guess Mike just couldn't help himself....

RE: EZU Can Suck It
From what I can gather Capaccio figured he could slide in his (successful) buddy Tim Miles and all would be hunky dory. That didn't happen and when that didn't happen the pop really hit the fan and our decade of distraught began

I know people that went to EZU have problems reading and comprehension, I said I don't really follow college football. Basketball is my number 1, but yes I follow baseball.
My exact statement was that the national stage cares very little about baseball in the grand scheme. (moving up conference etc.)

I'm sure it's going to be an entertaining game either way.
