With the first coach, Brad Lambert, set to be introduced Tuesday, among the first orders of business is recruiting for the 2012 class of rising high school seniors, which will be redshirted and begin play in 2013.
What kind of players might Charlotte expect to sign next February? While recruiting for Football Championship Subdivision schools is harder to follow -- most players would prefer to play in the Football Bowl Subdivision if possible -- there are some players to follow.
Just to get you in the mood, here's a local prospect for 2012, Porter Ridge quarterback Lee McNeill, who at this point could be slightly undersized (6-1, 170, 4.55 40) for the FBS but interesting to the Niners. He could also end up anywhere, and we're picking him simply because he's local.

Their first qb will most likely be a transfer, a sophomore or junior who realizes they wont play at the school they're at, but will start at Charlotte.
is bonnie cone's grandson available?
I have this bad feeling that until we reach Division 1 status (or FBS or FCS or whatever they're calling it), Charlotte will be a temporary school for any star player or coach we have. If a coach does well here, some Div 1 school will make him an offer. If a QB shines, the same thing happens. So the downside of being a great team will be losing personnel and players. It's going to be a bumpy road for a while.
I hope he can recruit donors.
Go for a walk. Play with the dog.Work in the yard. Use you brain for constructive purposes.
Lee, puhleeze go to UNCC! I can continue to watch and cheer for you!
Go Porter Ridge Pirates!
@Brandon - it's just a matter of finding the right mix of players and coach who are loyal to a program. App. State doesn't have the "stepping stone" problem and they've won multiple championships. Just about finding the right people.
App State did serve as a stepper for years (Mack Brown and Bobby Cremins come to mind). But yesterday's comments about UNCC starting in the FCS then to FBS is almost laughable..Hows that Div 1 mens basketball going for UNCC? Yes being in Charlotte will help recruiting in football but it will take years for UNCC to be competitive w/ any top tier FCS school and never will they win the FBC national championship....
Matthew Pawlowski at Northwest Guilford would be great fit for UNCC. 99-155-1508-15 td's passing 6 td's rushing and only 3 int's pass rating 120. Completed 64% as a junior.
So are they going to be excepting walk ons for football
