We didn't even interview a coach who could continue our successful style, and didn't give Siddle the time of day.

McGrath is going to lose this team really soon. Almost everyone on the roster has was a Keatts player and has experienced nothing but success. My greatest concern now is that Cacock transfers next year if we don't right this ship.

It is the height of irony that a UNC guy saw what UNCW was doing, adopted the press, and is now 7-3 on the year having just taken down UNCW...who beat him with the press.

Sorry that you ate just now seeing this...It was evident from the get go that the egos of this bunch wouldnt allow them to play their predecessors style until they got their own recruits in.Yes, they are in danger of losing this team.

Gray, i'm not just now seeing anything. I was furious when we did nothing to maintain continuity in this program. I predicted the fallout of our transfers and recruits after our last chance in Siddle left.

However, once what's done is done I am at least willing to wait until the new product plays some games before predicting anything. And i'm also willing to allow an opening game against Davidson to pass. BUT....ECU...UNCG...unacceptable.

McGrath better speed up his learning curve and fast, or we're headed for a 7 win season at best. If that happens, the downward momentum will be too much too overcome during his contract and he'll be one and done as a HC. We don't have the name recognition to overcome our deficiencies with recruiting.
