GREENVILLE, N.C. - The contract of Brian Mitchell, East Carolina University's defensive coordinator and secondary coach since 2010, will not be renewed according to an announcement by head football coach Ruffin McNeill Thursday.

Happy days are here again. BM is getting crushed on twitter by former players.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Might I suggest Chris Rippon.

Nah it's going to either be Zook, Hudson, or Smith. Or a combination of 2 of those (one as DC and the other working with a specific group)

Happy, Happy, Happy. I wish him nothing but the best, he just couldn't get it done here. Final straw was probably giving up 600 yards to ULL with 3 weeks to prepare for them.

Strong indications that FSU LBs coach Greg Hudson returns to ECU as DC

This is the guy who was here with Skip.

Coach Huds defense, with this offense. Wowzer

1. Brian Mitchell fired.
2. Greg Hudson contacted, rumored to leave Florida State to return to ECU.

Can this day get any better?

Hudson loved ECU, I'd love to see him back. Hudson's final words to the Pirate Nation before leaving for Florida State:
"I was not a Pirate born but I am now a Pirate bred, and when they stick my ass in the ground, I'll be a Pirate dead."

This post is going on my Facebook... Man I am so excited!!

I forgot Coach Hud is from Cincinnati. I wonder if his family is still there? Having a "business trip" to Cincinnati every other year would be a bonus.

You know Tommy West is avalible right?



(not that anyone wants him)

That is disturbing!

If Hudson does comeback with this offense and returning players on both sides of the ball another year of conners, we really should be the team to beat next year.

I read this whole thread and the biggest thing that sticks out is WTF eagle, no more moos or rainbows?
