They just don’t do this very often. They may lose some that they shouldn’t, but not often.
You know why they are top 25every year? Because they beat us at home, big and lose to Wake in a close game. They don’t get punked in front of a national audience and then lose to ECU.

[b] The difference between ya'll and Cincy is that they actually have an athletic program. You guys don't. [/b]
Two National Championships, post season success in the modern era, having a legitimate chance at a National Championship, loads and loads of difference between us.
They are a top notch program, who has fallen on some rough years in the postseason. We are a program on the rise. We are still trying to get to the level they are at now, and they are in a decline.
I have faith that we will keep getting better, it just sucks to have set backs like this. Hopefully a loss like this (we need to win at SLU) will get us into the 10 seed. I like our chances there a lot better. If we got into the 8/9 game, we’d have no chance against a 1 seed. This team isn’t going to make it against a UNC or an Illinois. Maybe we would get up enough for the UNC game, but Illinois has shown what they will do to us given the chance.
We’re a good team this year, I still think it, but we haven’t proven it yet.
Yeah, I agree that was a little rediculous to do against UNC-c. But, you have to understand…the kids at ECU will party over any situation…even one as small as beating UNC-c.

Yeah, congrats, you're 1-7 against us since joining the conference.
Let me put this in perspective for you. We played down to your inferior level and it cost us. But it doesn’t change the fact that
Your program sucks and will continue to suck
You won’t sniff post season play and like most every year before this one you’ll be home watching us play come March
Beating us is huge for a obscure program like yours that’s why you rushed the court.
Trot on back to the 5 fans you have over at the Boneyard and enjoy your “One Shining Moment”.
