TV ≠ Stream

Stream will be on Facebook since stadium does NOT list the game on their site…

Wow - as a public institution, salaries are available for NC university employees.  The link I have is for 2017, but Lambert was making just under $257k.  I wonder what kind of results they expect paying their head coach an FCS-level salary???  They started out at FCS (with Lambert), and didn't have winning records at that level before moving up.

It does seem kind of strange to do this heading into the last game of the season.  Do they really think it would make a significant difference in them pursuing a new coach if they waited until Sunday???  Especially given what they are paying.  They will have to double to possibly triple the head coach's pay, and I'd guess their assistants are also probably paid poorly as well so they will have to step that up if they really expect to get better.

I will say I thought Charlotte was better this year than I expected them to be.  They are in an attractive area and can pull SC and Georgia high school talent.  So with their new AD and a commitment to football they can make some strides - but right now the kids they try and go after are all probably going to App State.

Sorry - way off the CUSA topic, but I found the salary thing and the timing interesting (but odd).

I don't have an issue with the timing, they get an extra week to search but that pay - WOW! Ya get what ya pay for and it costs $$$ to make $$$ are very true adages!!! Personally, they (UNCC) had NO business getting into CUSA before we did - NONE! NO TEAM, NO STADIUM AND OBVIOUSLY NO BUDGET!

What I don't like regarding the timing is he IS staying on to Coach last game vs. US! They WILL play hared and try to win this for him! Will our Coords. prepare our team to take advantage of that over aggressiveness they WILL show, at least early in the game. I sure hope so but from what I have seen I tend to doubt it. I pray I am wrong!!!

Asheville on WLOS (13.4) is the closest I see…"might" be able to grab that with a good Antena! 

Otherwise Facebook will stream it… 

BTW, I'm from  Kingsport :)
