Charlotte 49ers hire football strength coach

Jim Durning, who has experience with some of the country's top FCS and FBS programs, is the 49ers' first football strength and conditioning coach.

Durning has been the strength and conditioning coach at James Madison since 1999. Before that, he was a strength coach at Georgia.


"Jim’s been ultra-successful as a strength coach at James Madison University," 49ers coach Brad Lambert said in a statement. "They’ve been very successful and the strength program plays a huge role in that. It’s the most important room you have in building strength, speed and toughness. The results you have in the weight room are such a big factor in the success you have on the field."
 

Durning played at Marshall and was captain of the Thundering Herd's 1992 national championship team. He was a graduate assistant at Marshall for two years before going to Georgia and James Madison.

So "charlotte" 49ers, whoever they are, hire a strength coach? Thats weird.

What about UNCC 49ers and their new football program?

Do they get a strength coach too? That is are afterall the UNCC
49ers UNC university right?

Be very careful here as it appears there may be 2 conflicting teams at the local UNC affiliate.

Plus the CO keeps trying to perpetuate the mass confusion.

The real UNCC 49ers
need to contact the UNCC 49er Chancellor or contact the UNC main office in Chapel Hill and find out who is creating the choas and confusion quick to get the problem fixed.
Sounds like Every Rose Has Its Thorn may be up to her tricks and at it again ...

And for those who are still confused:

The University of North Carolina - Charlotte athletics program has branded itself as the Charlotte 49'ers since 2000 to differentiate itself from Crapel Hill.

UNCC's football and basketball programs are a complete joke! GO HEELS!! Bawhahahahaha!!!

Anon 8:21 didn't post on this Charlotte 49ers story at all yesterday. I was beginning to have hope that a firecracker had blown his fingers off! Oh well.

According to reliable reports over 90-95% of the 100,000 grads of UNCC since 1965 are confused and outraged about the confusion of the sports and academics depts.

Also that fails to account for about a million more who didnt graduate from the UNC 49er school.

Talk about confusion?

Why not end the confusion and return to UNCC 49ers for 100% of the UNC affiliate and solve the problem?

UNC-CH Tarheels and UNC-C 49ers are not confusing in the least unless you just want to look stupid as hell and different and change sports only.

ROFFLMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

IDIOT ROSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Start an online petition then dumbass. You would be lucky to find more than a few dozen supporters!

I certainly dont think Judy is a great athletic director. But she has accomplished more than the trolls on this blog will in 10x their pathetic lifetimes.

8:21 - You are a moron. I didn't even go to UNC Charlotte and I can see that.

Bruce said...

Campbell, North Greenville, Chowan? Tough schedule for the 49er's. Lol...They'll lose those tough games as well. What kind of recruits want to go to a school with that type of schedule? Just sayin'

Anonymous said...

Charlotte recruits are the jocks that picked on you in high school. They were the popular kids that never hung out with you and dated the pretty girls in your class. I understand why you would hate them.

Anonymous said...

And it doesnt matter if they lose every game - they will get more tail that first season than you have ever sniffed.

Bruce said...

UNCC is still moving forward with this football program? Good to know...Chowan will win by 21.Bawhahahahaha!!!

UNCC should schedule Indy or Butler...I guess with Garinger recruits...Indy or Butler would win by double digits....Holla!

I suspect that the person who continues to post their comment regarding the UNC Charlotte name was one of those students who told their friends they were going to UNC and wore a Tarheels blue jacket as they attended UNCC.
What do you all think? As an alum, I am very happy with the distinctive new ID as Charlotte 49ers.

Bruce said...

I think UNCC should change the name to University of Charlotte, so that the UNC is not in the name at all. The school does not need to be compared to UNC-Chapel Hill in any way shape or form. From Academics to Athletics UNC-Chapel Hill is far more superior than the commuter school in Charlotte. GO HEELS!!! Lol...

52 bledmar76 alumni and i like the name change. not sure we want to be associated with UNC-CH since they have a football program with no integrity and classes for athletes that a six year old could pass. Charlotte will do it the right way...honesty and integrity.

Bruce is such a loser,
So crass, a hanger on,
Trolling other's message boards,
Never right, he's always wrong.

When Brucey went to grammar school,
He struggled to graduate,
From kindergarten to first grade,
'Cause his brain was always late.

If he made it into middle school,
I'm sure the kids all picked on Bruce,
'Cause he couldn't get that little straw,
Stuck into his box of juice.

In high school, if that was reality,
For the backwards, juiceless Bruce,
I'm sure he struggled mightily,
Never having any clues.

So Chapel Hill was a dream of his,
As he nibbled on a chicken bone,
At the counter of the local chicken house,
Waiting for customers, all alone.

Now he trolls on college sports sites,
Trying to sound so arrogant and sure,
But we all know that for a disease like Bruce,
There really is no cure!!!!!

Bruce is ALWAYS right! GO HEELS!!!

Wonder if UNCC will have cheerleaders for football? You'll have to feel sorry for them for enduring such a painful process by watching this so-called football team loose to UNC-Pembroke, Chowan and company...They might not get a win until 2014 if their lucky! Bawhahahahaha....

Now that you know what to call it - ask your sister if she will let you find out what one feels like.

Since all UNC System schools should supposedly use "UNC" in their name I understand students at App State are begging to go by their official name "UNC Boone". Or is it "UNC Tweetsie"?

I know who Bruce is. He flunked out of high school in the 11th grade, pretty typical of many of the UNC-chapel hill fans that never went to college.

Bruce said...

0-10 in 2013 on the weakest schedule in the country! Campbell will crush them on the home opener...this football thing was a bad idea. The basketball team has essentially been non-existent since Bobby Lutz left. The Boobcats are the joke of the city until this football team starts playing. I guess you better hope for a minor league baseball team for uptown! Just sayin'...Lol

Hey Bruce put your money where your mouth is you idiot! Another Wal-Mart chapel hole fan has nothing better to do than try to slam a new program that will be twice the program chapel hole has in the next 5 years. Go back to your cheating holes....certain to be black-balled for passing through nimrod athletes across all athletic disciplines hahaha!

I look forward to basketball season when we can read in the BLOG about the 49er wins over Temple, Xavier, Butler, Dayton, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and other A10 conference opponents.

David gets paid to write this blog and paid more if this blog has more post/hits.
He makes half his salary off of "Bruce". Plus, they get a good laugh in the observer breakroom when he stirs the pot a little.

^^^^ Isn't Bruce employed by the Observer and isn't his real name something other than Bruce?

Anonymous said...

Who was the Observer employee that defended the Observer in the comments about the cheats in Chapel Hill stealing our tax money by offering artificial courses for athletes. He/she actually stated the Observer is a private company that does NOT have to print the real news if they have other agendas. That is a national story and the Observer refuses to put the article in print. Since they brag about not printing the truth I am cancelling my subscription tomorrow. I am tired of the dishonesty coming from the UNC Journalism grads at this paper.

Anonymous said...

Anon 11:04, the article you speak of about the academic fraud in Chapel Hill has already been removed from the Observer's website. The latest developments made front page news in the Raleigh Paper's printed and online versions. The Observer once again refused to put the story in print and once again removed the story from the web page after only a few hours.

They replaced this newsworthy story with 5 stories on UNC athletics and how great they are.
