Never. They were good for one short time period with one coach. UNCW is and has been a better basketball school than UNCG and our fan base blows their away. And Trask blows them away.

That statement was likely made during the CB era, which would have been an accurate statement. They had some good years under MaCarthy. If you look at the years starting in 95, both schools have had 13 years over .500. I know you like to look through your teal glasses, but we are not much different than them. I agree about Trask and Fan base. And we certainly seem to be in better shape now.

No, take a look at conference champtionships and trips to the NCAA tournament.

UNCG - 4 trips to the NCAA tournament. It was actually McCaffrey and he was 49-47 as a coach with one trip to the NCAA tournament. UNCG has had two coaches leave with a winning record and Mike Jones is only 17-15 right now.

UNCW - 6 trips to the NCAA tournament. UNCW has had five coaches leave with winning records and Siddle should be the sixth and he is 34-19 coming into this year.

UNCG has 3 coaches with a winning record in that timeframe, Miller, Jones and McCaffrey. If you go back even further G had two more winning coaches and 1 that was 1 game under .500. Postseason appearances are 10-9 in that timeframe. in that timeframe UNCW has had 4 coaches with winning records to 3.

I'm a bit confused, in other conversations UNCG was going to be the conference savior, now you are going out of your way to try to crap on them. What's it going to be?

Never once said anything about UNCG other than they made sense and would be a good add. Certainly not that they would be a "savior". That's ridiculous. It was everyone else acting like they were just too good to join us in the CAA. They are in the conversation because they just lost to the other Greensboro team that wasn't too good to join the CAA. Jones is only in his second year and there is no way of knowing if he will have a winning record at UNCG when he leaves. I put him in a different category just as I did with Siddle.
