If you would, set the stage as to what wasn't going well and why they think the new staff will be the guys that will get this thing done.

Well, to answer your first question, I think probably it just had gotten stagnant.

Now Coach Beck got us to three consecutive bowl games.

He never lost to Appalachian State, which at Coastal, It's as big a deal for you guys as beating Pittsburgh.

So, I mean, that was a big deal for the program to continue to have some success over the school in Boone.

It's what Coastal fans reference Appalachian State.

But it just felt like the program needed a change in leadership and maybe a refresh in energy.

Chris, as we sit here today, a couple days out from this game, what do you think you know about this team, even though there's so many new guys and all this new coaching staff?

So tell us a little bit more about that and what the vision is for what our mentors are doing.

I'd like to kind of back up a little and tell you when we first were starting, made aware.

We knew that human trafficking was going on, but there were several of us that was in Germany, and we were at a church in Stuttgart, Germany, and our friend there said, have you heard of human trafficking? And and we said, yes.

And and then a little while later, she said it again.

Have you guys heard of human trafficking? And and of course, yeah.

Yeah, we know what you're talking about.

And then a third time she said it.

I know that God has put a special message on your heart and I would love for them to hear from you.
