Coastal Carolina (the Zach killers) versus East Carolina. 

(Call me crazy but wouldn't east Carolina and coastal Carolina be the same thing?)

East Carolina is in Greenville, NC.  Not really close to the beach, though indeed in the eastern portion, and is the armpit of the Carolinas.  @AVM

Coastal Carolina is in Conway, SC, near Myrtle Beach.  Very much near the ocean and thus “coastal”.  

Glad I could help.

Ah. Thanks for the clarification. Some pretty bad football and some pretty good bong rips got me asking questions

Not sure where to start here, unfortunately I had live here for the time being during the Pandemic during North Carolina's full burst economic collapse, even though it already suffers in that category.

Coming from a person who has lived and moved back to Detroit, this area gives it a run for it's money, there are many occasions I felt safer in the bad parts of Detroit then this area.

Throw in a lot of drunken college students (ECU is a notorious party school) and not much to do and you get armpit central.

I think that review is a little heavy on the hate on NC but they're spot-on with Greenville!  Brunswick County is fine.  Pitt County....not so much, lol.

No hate for NC, I actually like it down there, but will leave my final decision once summer rolls around lol... Wife and I just moved to Brunswick County from Chatham County in Oct to retire down there.

I lived in Clemson for a bit after the Army (1996), bartended at both TDs and the Tiger Town Tavern (and Los Hermanos ?).... I liked Greenville back then. Has it changed? Was a fun little city back then.

 

Edit: just realized you were talking NC, not SC.  Carry on.

Yeah don’t get it twisted.  Greenville, SC is fantastic.

Next season the BCS will have 12 teams, and 11 games. Best possible outcome would be to end this whole bowl nonsense once and for all. The ratings for most of these games are garbage and the stands are empty. What is the point any more? Could figure out a way to spread those 11 games over 11 of the more popular bowl sites and be done with this.

My VOLS play CLEMSON tonight in the Orange Bowl. Wish them luck. 4 guys are opting out due to draft status ? Hendon Hooker not playing due to the knee injury, and his replacement Joe Milton might have the strongest arm in the SEC but the problem is he over throws his wrs 80% of the time because of it. I don't expect my VOLS to win for these reasons. Lol
