ECU isn't big conference worthy but they are one of the legit programs that don't reside in a power conference and could certainly hold their own vs the lower tier of the big conferences (such as an Indiana) If I'm not mistaken they routinely give UNC, NC St, and VT fits.

ECU's got a large undergrad population and would fit in a power conference imo. And I remember they gave VT all they could handle and beat them at least once in their series during the mid 2000s
