RALEIGH, N.C. - An article written in the Aug. 31 edition of the Star-Ledger in New Jersey referred to new North Carolina Central head football coach Henry Frazier III as "Dr. Fix It" and with good reason.
The former Bowie State quarterback has taken over three losing football programs and turned them into winners. Frazier's success in revitalizing a Prairie View A&M program which had won 21 of 216 games since 1980 prior to his arrival and leading them to the 2009 Southwestern Athletic Conference title earned him the Eddie Robinson Award as the nation's best Football Championship Subdivision head football coach.
Now Frazier looks to do the same at North Carolina Central which is now eligible to compete for the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference title. Saturday's homecoming matchup against a program he called the conference's "premier flagship team" in South Carolina State could serve as a barometer in determining where the Eagles stand in their rebuilding phase.
