To answer the question posed in the title of the thread, the only positive actually accomplished thus far is a strong recruiting class. To me, that means the only accomplishment so far is on paper. Which, to this point in actuality is nothing.

The play on the field last year was atrocious and worse yet, extremely boring to watch.

Let's see how the team performs through the first 4 or 5 games then a judgement can be made if anything has been accomplished.

I think we were snake bit after Leavitt. If we had good administrators, Lou Holtz Jr. would have never been hired.

Yes, Holtz looked good on paper. BUT. But he wasn't a program re-builder.

Our football program didn't need to be re-built. If it had, Holtz might have been the coach to do it.

The 3 years prior to his arrival at ECU:

4-8

1-11

2-9

His tenure there:

5-6

7-6

8-5

9-5

9-5

You bring up good point...maybe Jims players were not use to a Holtz like coach and took advantage...still doesn't explain though team got worse longer Holtz was there.

Either way I believe Cwt will turn things around if we win 2 or less games he needs to be fired.

I think the general consensus on that is to blame it on Woolard.

^^^^

True.

By typical political correctness and misinformation standards, we had to enter a warm and fuzzy period.  I feel for Skip Holtz.  He should have demanded more.

 

Is that good Trip?

No one in their right mind would replace Captain Ahab with Mr. Rogers.

 

This is why we are where we are today with the football program --struggling to get back.

Even when Mr Rogers had accomplished more in college football than Captain Ahab?? ......... 20/20 hindsight is great, ain't it?

Mr. Rogers did?  In what, C-USA? And who did he beat?
