Didn't Mazey get fired from East Carolina?


Jun 8, 2015, 1:33 PM

I haven't been able to find a reason why but that's rarely a good thing. Anyone know why?

Yes...he did !!!

As I recall, it was a fairly abrupt decision by ECU after only three seasons with the program.

I never heard anyone really elaborate on the reason for the decision by ECU.

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.


Done a little more research and found out...

That he was suspended (with pay) for essentially 2 months before he put in his resignation. A part of the agreement with him resigning was that he would continue to make 100k a year fir 4 years (I assume the rest of his contract). Very weird situation.

There isn't much info out there

ECU and Mazey both played it close to the vest.

Speculation I heard at the time was Mazey didn't believe he was getting the support the program deserved and said so, but that was speculation.


It is worth noting that ECU did pay Mazey the full salary he was due until the end of 2005, then paid him half of his salary for 2 1/2 years afterwards.

Apparently ECU didn't like the fact his girlfriend was going


Jun 9, 2015, 1:53 PM

on road trips while his wife was staying at home. Or so the story goes.

The word in the coaching circles at the time was that it was a mutiny by his assistant coaches. Mazey is known to be a bit of a hardass, like his mentor.
