This may just be the dirtiest head coaching change in history of college football... Dave Bennett led the CCU team from it's start up 9 years ago to 4 Big South championships including last year. This year his record was 7-4. Fired. the guy they hired has never had a winning record as a head football coach at any level!!! But he is a billionaire.. His record last year with Neb semi-pro team was 1-5. But the stadium did get renamed to TD Ameritrade stadium, and was "sold out" every week???? Hmm

Please help me. I live in SEC Country and I am a pretty big Football Fan, but I can’t for the life of me figure out what the name of the University/College with the initials “CCU”. Are they a Divison 1 School? If not, who cares who their coach its?

The very notion of giving scholarships for athletes is corrupt. “We’ll sacrifice our academic standards to gain prominence among would-be donors.”

If this hire were strictly about getting cash from Moglia, how is that any different than decision to compete in the NCAA in the first place? No school that offers scholarships to athletes can long remain Christian. Just ask Duke, the original Big East basketball teams, TCU, Notre Dame, SMU, Rice,...

You see coaches and jocks by the score giving speeches to businessmen about how to run their businesses.

So why shouldn't a businessman be able to coach??
