Id imagine most coaches would be happy not to have to answer stupid questions

That’s obnoxious. Go win some games and give people a reason to care.

Well I’ll give him credit. He generated a little bit of buzz for his team with that. I’d be curious to know how many writers were even in that room. Couldn’t be more than a handful.

So maybe they'll win 4 games this year...

They can’t do these smaller conference media days over Zoom?

He hit the frank underwood at the end

Everyone here would be mad if they had to waste an entire day at a media event where you only got 3 questions. It's insulting and honestly extremely lazy on the journalists who were there.
That said.... Charlotte is insanely lucky to have been gifted an AAC invite. It was obviously pushed by ESPN onto them but had it been me running that conference I'd have held my nose and attempted to force through an invite to Liberty over them. Also would have tried to grab Southern Miss, App St, La Tech, Marshall, or even JMU over Charlotte.

My man is just hyping his team.
Nothing wrong with it.

I went back and watched - I believe the reigning league/cotton bowl champion coach, Willie Fritz, got a total of 2 questions. This guy Biff Poggi is a moron… and also I think the AAC media/the powers that run the league in general suck. Trying to replace quality (UCF, UH, Cincy) with quantity (Charlotte, FAU, North Texas, UAB, Rice, and UTSA) was a mistake

Should have asked him if he would keep “Club Lit” open after wins, and dance shirtless like Will Healy. I’m sure that question would have gone over well.

I'd think that would be great to only have to deal with 3 questions

I like it. Won't matter, but I like it.

Boy, Healy went from that next young "it" guy in coaching to a coaching leper in the snap of the fingers. I remember his name being mentioned in both the Ole Miss and Tennessee jobs, then "poof" he was gone. Young and energetic can only get you so far.

I believe they only ask Willie Fritz 3 or 4 questions and they are predicted to win the conference.

The combination of second tier media and a conference where no one is anyone’s rival…

ESPN dictated the AAC additions. Their hope is that a Rice, Charlotte, FAU (kinda already happened with basketball), North Texas or UTSA (Has already somewhat happened) catch fire and grab the media attention of that market. UCF style.
UAB was a great add.
Rice could win 36 straight games in football and most people in Houston would still have no idea they have a football team. UTSA has had recent success and done an incredible job branding themselves as San Antonio’s team. They were a great add.
Charlotte will be in a similar spot to Rice. You’ve got much bigger schools all surrounding it (South Carolina, North Carolina, ECU, NC State, Duke, Clemson). They will never be able to brand themselves as Charlotte’s team the same way UTSA has.
North Texas has all of Charlottes problems with the addition of an MLB team alongside NFL, NHL and NBA
It also remains to be seen if UTSA can maintain that momentum once they hit a rough spot. They were completely irrelevant prior to Jeff Traylor. They may be able to because there isn’t much competition in San Antonio outside of the Spurs.
Miami will never be a college town but FAU might be able to capitalize on basketball success. Their football program can’t maintain success, they just have flash in the pan seasons.

How does Charlotte get an AAC invite? This is the exact logic that let the Sun Belt definitively pass CUSA in the football realm
