The rumor mill is working on a little something. Unverified sources saying that Compher is going to take some kind of deal and resign. I'm not saying that it's likely. I'm saying that it's hope....on a Wednesday. I choose hope.

I would do cartwheels in the street.

Need to get moving fast. Coaching search starts a week from tomorrow.

can you expand on the implications here for those of us that stopped following ecu athletics years ago

This would be the AD getting canned?

Is that their ad or one of their coaches?

Yes.

And I doubt it will happen, because it would take a Jeff Lebo level of class resignation, since the idiot chancellor extended his contract last summer.

Lot's of confusion about what's going on.

I'm with you till something goes official.

You AD firing HOPES

Real open slot for basketball coach

too much in the wind to say anything involving this BoT meeting Thursday actually means he is getting the axe.

Don’t buy in to this, he’s not going anywhere. His buyout would be substantially more than we could afford.

Who is Compher? Not kidding. Never heard of him.

Fire him and then go after Jim Schaus with everything you have.

From the way ECU fans describe their administration that would make way too much sense for them.

Our athletic director. Extended Lebo unnecessarily. Fired Ruffin. Hired Scotty.

I hate to say it but he's not going anywhere. One of our beat reporters said that he is traveling to Florida this weekend in what is related to the basketball coaching search. He wouldn't be conducting a search if he was being fired. Furthermore, if we were going to fire our AD, I think we would have done it well before now, just when our basketball coaching search is heating up with the season's coming to an end.

Our AD. One quick look tells you something's not right.

You don’t fire a guy six months after giving him an extension, however unwarranted that extension may have been. Personnel matters being discussed a probably related to the dean of the business school retiring.
