Hey guys. Sorry to come buy during your celebration of winning your conference championship. Just want to let you know that we are taking your coach. We know you can't be our offer so I suggest you don't even try. Coach Albin will love it here in Charlotte. It's a better city with a lot more to offer than Athens. Hopefully you can find a decent replacement.

Thanks again!

Truth hurts doesn't it! Don't worry you will bounce back. When you see coach, tell him he will enjoy playing on Saturdays, the day college football games are supposed to be played on.

If he leaves, he can do a lot better than that!

You don’t troll well. You appear to be a rank amateur. You might do better at the FCS level, or maybe D3.

Based only off your posts as a representation of your school, Coach Albin is far too much a class act for your university.

Who's trolling? Hey can you do me a favor? Can you ask or be coach if he ever had NC BBQ? If not tell him it's a game changer!

Coach will fit in just fine in Charlotte. Especially when he wins his first AAC championship. AAC is way better that the MAC!

How is that rah-rah Will Healy coach doing you hired from 1aa Austin Peay after he had two losing seasons out of three there?

Wait....you guys fired him in middle of a season when he was 1-7.

Better look for another rah-rah pretty boy from the d-2 or 1aa ranks.

You might need to worry about hiring a grammar coach first.

Forgive my French but Charlotte, at least driving thru, is a complete sh1thole, unless you drive the "Express Lanes". I may be wrong, but Albin has spent 20 years in Athens, assume he and wife have friends. Double his salary in Charlotte may sound good but cost of living is massively higher than in Athens. Time will tell what he chooses.

It is slop. Coach grew up in beef cattle country. He isn’t moving to eat pork and vinegar.

And it isn't like you can't eat whatever you want wherever you want. Certain areas like certain types of food but it isn't illegal to make it elsewhere. I ate Key Lime pie the other day and I wasn't in Miami.

I think there is a good chance Albin won't be here next year. If Purdue asks then he's probably gone. He might choose to go to Charlotte. Maybe after 20 years he wants a change. Charlotte right now looks like a place you go to committ career suicide. Maybe he wants a challenge. When Solich got here that was Ohio. But moving to an area because the people in that area like to eat one type of food more than they like to eat other food is a silly idea.

As one of the forum's resident former southerners, I had BBQ in > SOUTH < Carolina that was better than NC. They use oak in their smokers, not hickory. Had it in both Charleston and the Hilton Head area. I put hickory below oak, pecan, mesquite.

Kiser's BBQ here in Athens holds it's own vs Texas and that is impressive.

Hi Bobcats, I am an actual Charlotte 49er. OP is a troll here to make us look bad. His behavior was brought to our attention on our message board, NinerNation.Net.

We do not condone this person, we shun this imposter, and we hope that you can ignore OP as a bad actor.

Yes, we are hoping to acquire your coach for our football program. This game is brutal. Nonetheless, we certainly don't want to be assholes about it. And there are many of us who have doubts about the chances of him taking our job.

Congratulations on your conference championship and great season! Success tends to attract poachers who want that success. We are no different.

Here's hoping things work out for everyone and that no hard feelings are harbored by the fair Bobcat nation toward Charlotte regardless!

I said we should have upped him before the MAC Championship to increase the buyout. It could be he didn't even want to do that.

The news coming in just as I was typing that post is that we are indeed acquiring your coach. Revel in the success of this great season nonetheless! This is the cruel reality of college athletics.

We finally had a competitive basketball team last year, and all our top players were poached by bigger schools. Now 3 of them are starters on those teams, and 2 of those schools are ranked. It's brutal, but it's the way it is.

If the news is true, and Albin then brings us a conference championship down the line, don't be surprised when he ditches us for a P4 gig. We sure wouldn't be. It's just the way this heartless game goes.

I wish you the best in continuing your success and finding a great replacement!

No offense, but I hope if you took Albin, you had to give him 10m+ over five years, and plus had to give 1m to Ohio to buy out his contract.

Niner49 - "you can't teach CLASS".

If he leaves Athens, he's played against bigger crowds than in Charlotte.

"The largest crowd for a Charlotte football game at Jerry Richardson Stadium is 19,151, which was achieved on September 8, 2018"

If a metropolis like Charlotte can't get anyone to attend games, it speaks LOUDLY about the fans, or lack thereof.

Our program is new (2013). Our stadium is relatively small. That largest crowd was a sellout. If I'm not mistaken, we sold out most home games this season. We need to expand our stadium and win more in order to draw more crowd size. Best season has been 7-6, all others losing. It's hard getting a program started.
