Houston just isn't a good coach and firing Ruffin was a mistake. They weren't great under him, but played better than they have since he was let go.

Houston's resume speaks to his ability as a coach, and "not good" isn't what it says.

However, the lack of results at ECU over the last couple years are fair game for criticism and unless they can pull together 7-8 wins, it's probably curtains for their pairing. I'm glad he didn't go to UNCC, though.

Coaching is a results oriented job. Houston's results at ECU over the last six years show that he's not good.

I dont ever want to know hate that deep to be comparing a coach to trump. Lol 

they are salesman/showman with an over fixation on personal brands.   Don't let politics blind the comparison.  The politics of one or the other is irrelevant here.  It's a good fair comparison that I didn't invent.  You can google that. 

who essentially lives an every day reality show? 

who is fixated on personal brand? 

who demands the oxygen and eyeballs of everyone? 

who is more fixated on the salesmanship vs the substance? 

who thinks the media should be his ally or villainizes them? 

who is in charge of an operation yet fixated on cosmetic/PR aspects? 

who has nepotism as the foundation of their operation? 

and then now today....

Turning three smaller schools into title contenders says otherwise. Your mind is made up, that's fine, and I said that his results haven't been good enough at ECU. But if they pull out 8 wins, he's likely still there despite your feelings.

    • That excuse would be interesting if it was really true. In the first halves, we’ve given up 50 points. In the 2nd halves we’ve given up 23 points. Both the Chargers and the Saints scored TDs on their opening drives, before Young even stepped on the field. The Saints scored on every single possession they had until we finally stopped one drive in the 4th quarter. This D has been run over, regardless of how bad Young played.
