Good points....but Coach Thompson did inherit good players. Coming off 3 straight bowl appearances plus a solid Oline and DLine. Hopefully the ship gets on track sooner than later. Too early in the season to through a John Thompson season replica in the mix. Those 2 seasons were 1 & 2 wins. Still have another half of a season to complete.

David D....did you actually attend any of the games John Thompson coached.....no this coaching staff is nothing like that ....coach Mo inherited a group of dedicated young men that are simply not as talented as our opposition has been with the exception of WCU....the win over N C State was huge given what we are working with this year.....next time you're at a game or see us on TV, check the o-line and d-line play....you build great teams starting there.....we have great skilled players but we don't have the numbers at the other positions....just a fact, not a coaching fault.....John Thompson didn't inherit the best players either, but his coaching model was quite different from our current coach and that's why he failed....If Coach Mo still has this team's confidence, then we will turn this thing around, but we go into this week once again against a far more talented team and I don't expect great results......I do expect the special teams to start playing better....it would be hard to play worse, and even with a thin talent pool, I expect us to be competitive.....after all, USF is probably thinking more about the hurricane than us

Do you think we could get Frank Beamer to come out of retirement and coach special teams?

For cryin' out David D. Are you serious? Ruffin left the man with a dozen good players and half of them are beaten up. Superman can't build a team to compete in this new league using 1 star recruits and walk ons (yes, I know we've been lucky with a few walk ons). The man has coached 4 tough games using another guys players with an incredible win over NC State. Anyone thinking with their brain instead of their emotions knew this season was going to be Montgomerys' "mulligan". I expect us to be better next year but I'm not expecting miracles then either. Look at Montgomery & company recruits. Its a crowd of 3 stars! We have 4 and 5 star recruits giving us a good look! When was the last time that happened? And on top of it he hadn't head coached a game and got started late recruiting. Jeez man, its up to you, but you may want to cut the dude a little slack. See you at the game, bro'!

I agree Charles. He is a new coach and things have not been perfect. And it hurts, but he is our coach until someone takes his place. Meantime, let's support him as best we can. I still believe we have the making of a good team and good coach. GGOO...PIRATES!!!

I support this coach 100 percent and all ECU fans should!

If the special teams were just decent, ECU would have a mediocre or slightly better team.

I am not sure the fans are still with him. Leaving the last game there were plenty of comments comparing him to John Thompson. and we know how that went.

This was embarrassing to the University and to me personally as a graduate of ECU. I certainly hope they don't intend to pull this same stunt on the 13th when we play Navy, that would certainly add to the embarrassment.

Right on. Glad that that I was not close to them as my kicking their butt would only be expressing my right to free expression.

The new chancellor needs to "grow a pair" and get the band radicals off of the field for the rest of the season!

This weekend's game was a real heart breaker - especially when we were favored. At times it looked like we were coming back and going to win, when something would happened and knock us back again. I figured the team with the fewest mistakes/turnovers, etc. was going to win and that seemed to be have been the case. Hats off to UCF - they have a good team. We have a strong team to play next week in USF. Lets hope for a better effort/results and pull out the upset. GGOOOO...PPIRATES!!!.

If kneeling while the anthem that declares the price paid so that you might have freedom of expression isn't disrespectful, then my booing at your ignorance is also not disrespectful!!!

Is there an update on the condition of Philip Nelson?
