Ruminations on CCU’s Head Football Coaching Debacle, Part 2

Coach David Bennett (Courtesy of the Sun News) (If you missed Part 1, click here.) In the wake of Coach Bennett’s “reassignment,” interest in CCU football is at an all-time high. Even higher, in my opinion, than in 2002-2003 when the program was in its infancy. Dr. DeCenzo & AD Yurachek definitely succeeded in DeCenzo’s goal of creating excitement around the CCU football...

The Search Continues

Steve Spurrier, Jr. is no longer a candidate to become the next head coach of CCU football. Coastal’s plan to hire Steve Spurrier, Jr. has fallen through – and all I can say is, praise the Lord.  Someone like Spurrier Jr. is exactly want we do not want as our next head coach, because we would need another inside of five years – either because he does well and leaves the program or...

DAVID BENNETT FIRED

Courtesy of Johnny Gasque Photography I was just being lazy today and happened to check Facebook and found that Coastal Carolina’s first and only head football coach was fired.  I am surprised to say the least.  Bennett won the Big South and went to the playoffs just last season, and came back with 7 wins this season.  Admittedly, the games against Liberty and Stony Brook were debacles, but I had...

The Chanticleers defeated the Buccaneers 45-38 to finish 3-3 in the Big South and improve to 6-4 overall on the season.  The Chants were down 31-24 at the end of three quarters before ripping off 21 unanswered points.  After Charleston Southern cut the lead to 45-38 and got the ball back, they drove down to the Coastal 24. Then, Phillip George came up with the play of the game - an INT to clinch it...
