2013-14 ECU CUSA Farewell Tour: How Will it go down?

  • With CUSA as it might be for our final season next year how can we go out/what would you like to see us go out as?

    *************************

    CUSA Football:
    I see no reason we don't win CUSA next year or at the very worst be CUSA-E Champs. IF La Tech is in the East they could be our only real threat.

    CUSA Basketball (M):
    I'd be totally on board for an appearance in the CUSA Championship game and NIT at worst

    CUSA Basketball (W):
    I think Macy is getting it together and I think appearing in the CUSA Championship game is a possibility.

    CUSA Baseball:
    Nothing less than league champs.

    CUSA Softball:
    I see no reason we won't be league Champs.

  • We need to win football next year. We'll have a target on our backs because we're leaving, but should be one of the most experienced teams in the league.

    What is too far out of bounds?

    We should win the CUSA East title in football.

    With CUSA baseball only really Rice would be a challenge to our title hopes.

    Both hoops teams with enough experience could make the run to the title game.

    FWIW, I get that comment from one of the 8-4 isn't good enough in football and we suck guys coffeesarcasm

  • "Should" win the east in football. Maybe

    No idea why you think baseball is going to jump up that high so quickly. We finished 6th last year and I'm not sure how we will do this year, especially with the injury to Joyner. A lot of questions to be answered IMO.

    Basketball "could" make a run to the title game. I'm sure you have seen enough ECU basketball to know not to predict this. Would be nice though.

    I'm all about having expectations, but I can also be realistic and see what is before me. Including a 8-5 (not 8-4) football team who lost to every good/decent team we faced and beat up on a bunch of scrubs. I am with contro though and would be happy with one championship in one of the major sports.

    Well congrats on projecting East Carolina to have the most success any school has ever had. In a single year. Out of any school. In the history of college athletics. Ever.

    You must be new to East Carolina athletics.

    "CUSA Football: I see no reason we don't win CUSA next year or at the very worst be CUSA-E Champs. IF La Tech is in the East they could be our only real threat. "

    "No Reason"(LOL) How about Tulsa? La Tech? Both teams way better than East Carolina. Not to mention we barely squeaked by Marshall(OT), UAB(5 points), Tulane(5 points). You can't see any reason why we don't win CUSA?

    "CUSA Basketball (M): I'd be totally on board for an appearance in the CUSA Championship game and NIT at worst "

    Two things we've never done before. Totally gonna happen!

    "CUSA Baseball: Nothing less than league champs."

    Forgot that USM and Rice and Tulane are leaving the conference next year. Oh wait - they aren't. And they beat our asses every year.

    Keep on dreaming buddy.

    We've won the CUSA Title in football in '08 and '09.

    We won the baseball title in CUSA our first year as a full member.

    The ladies did win a CUSA title un Baldwin-Tenner a few years ago.

    Not sure on Softball off the top of my head.

    At any rate I said it is possible as Memphis, Houston, SMU, and UCF are out for next year our last year in CUSA ourselves.

  • Softball is gonna be tough...we have average pitching and average hitting. Fielding is as good as always but with new coaches on board, hard to tell if they will "click" from the start or take time to Gel.

    Football East division champs is likely considering what's left. I think the Marshall game will decide it. But the road to the CUSA champs will go through Tulsa.

    Baseball....after years of hearing about great talent and being ranked all the time Yada,yada,yada...I can think of 3 reasons why we won't win the CUSA title. Rice,Rice and more Rice.

    Men's BBall....Lebo has me thinking positive...I'm up in the air over this one.

    Women's BBall....Macy has the girls playing well and we do have some talent in the Edwards girls. But can we win the big games when they are on the line. So far she hasn't shown me she can.

    We will be competitive no doubt..but champs in all these categories...I think the planets would all have to line up for this to happen.

    Ptnc new? The man is a staple on every ECU message board (cept ByB).

  • I feel like winning football is the most likely. As long as rice is in the league, baseball wont happen with Godwin here. Basketball is doubtful, even with Memphis gone because we will be recovering from the loss of five seniors. Softball is plausible, based on past success.

    I was being facetious alluding to the fact he doesn't seem to know how East Carolina athletics work.

    I know how they work >_>

    If people want to cry about how CUSA is so weak then in our last year considering our sports we theoretically could pull it off. Will we though? Strongest chances are Football, baseball, and softball. But I don't think us appearing in the CUSA Championship game for both hoops squads would be out of the realm of possibility.
