I hope we lose to Temple
To hire a Coach that isn't such a risk takes $$. Otherwise you: -hire a fired former Head Coach and take a chance (McCarney), -hire a hot shot Coordinator at a P4 and hope he knows how to become a HC (Seth), -or hire a HC from a lower division and hope he can translate his style to FBS level (Morris) -

I hope we lose to Temple
Seriously? The AD doesn't care about verbal fan demands...unless you have a check with lots of $$$ on it to give?? Every fan of every team that is below .500 is also demanding their coach and AD be fired. It's a yearly tradition. One we have participated in far too often. Anyway....the point is (most) everyone on this board is a fan, and nobody is happy about losing. The first reaction in losing is fire the coach. You already know it won't happen until money is not an issue. Why didn't we fire the DC on a 2-year contract after his first season? $$ -

AAC Trend - Year 2 of 5 Firings
Again, we have an athletic budget $10 to $16 million more than those other schools we've mentioned. Why can they afford baseball but we can't? Do we offer sports they don't? Something isn't adding up. For what it's worth regarding revenue vs non-revenue sport, ECU's stadium seats 6,000 and it's highest reported capacity was just over that against NC State this year. The stadium reportedly cost $11 million in 2005 so probably would be double today. I know ECU gets great support but that just shows the opportunity is there. Would a baseball stadium that seats 4k not yield a higher return on investment than say a new $50+ million basketball arena when we average around 4k in our current basketball arena?
