Former TD Ameritrade CEO Now Coastal FB Coach

Show me the money! Just in case you forgot college football is all about the money.
 
Most CCU people around here are saying "wtf".

But if it means a bajillion dollars go into Chants athletics who can complain?
 
Apparently my boi got fired
Their former QB Tyler Thigpen sent a letter to the Board of Trustees crushing them for firing Bennett. Some excerpts...

As of today, Coastal Carolina no longer has a NFL quarterback as a booster, fan or alumnus.
Worthless excuses are being made to fire coach Bennett. Despite claims of lower attendance and decreased revenue by the administration at the press conference to announce Coach Bennett being terminated, an article published online by The Carolina Forest Chronicle (12/15/11) show CCU’s own attendance figures are just the opposite with all time high average attendance for the 2011 season, including the 4th largest crowd in CCU football history at the ’11 season finale vs Presbyterian.
