Anyone from NC know what's up? 2-14-05 Recruiting class announcement with statement of building towards the future. 4-14-05 Resignation announcement! Head Coach and Assistant advertised for.
Neil's a terrific coach.....maybe the opening in the ACC coaching ranks(Maryland) was too hard to resist?
Apparently the powers that be did not think that he was right coach for the situation. For the past few years the players have been giving increasingly negative evalutions of him as a coach. And FYI "resigned" is a nice way of saying he was let go.
how do you know his player evaluations were going down. he lost some good players to transfers, but it was indicated that they weren't "team" players, but rather primadonas. He seems really good at giving his players public credit and getting them league wide recognition.
Here is another college coach for whom I had a great deal of respect. Working in Conference USA, I was fortunate enough to do several games involving Charlotte both at home and on the road. I always found Coach Roberts to be extremely accessible and professional.
