Western Carolina begins a new era with countless problems to solve

NC State is back at it Wednesday night in Reynolds against Western Carolina, and the Catamounts, shall we say, have been in a bit of a funk for a while. That probably has something to do with the school’s decision to part ways with long-time coach Larry Hunter.

WCU has endured four consecutive losing seasons, finishing below 300 in the Pomeroy Ratings in each of the last two. There’s a bit of rebuilding to be done here, suffice it to say.

That task now belongs to Mark Prosser (the late Skip Prosser’s son), who has his first college head coaching gig after biding his time as an assistant at Wofford and Winthrop.
