Quote:East Carolina football is coming to a den, living room or sports bar near you.
Jeff Charles, "The Voice" of the Pirates and director of electronic media at ECU, said Thursday that plans are in place for WITN-7 to televise four of ECU's Conference USA road football games.
Charles will team with WITN sports anchor Billy Weaver on games at Louisville on Oct. 2, Southern Miss on Oct. 23, Houston on Nov. 6, and South Florida on Nov. 13.
Charles said ESPN regional will produce the Louisville and South Florida games. WITN crews will handle production of the Southern Miss and Houston games.
"Last year WITN produced the North Carolina game and did a really good job so this was the compromise we worked out," Charles said.
Tim Moreland will be back to do the radio description on the Pirate network for the games when Charles is involved with television. Former Pirate great running back Carlester Crumpler and Charles will be together for the 17th year on the radio for the non-televised matchups.
Marty Feurer is on the radio broadcasts for the 11th year. Former ECU defensive back Kevin Monroe will seek stories on the sideline for the second season.
You may be wondering about the television status of the N.C. State game in Charlotte on Nov. 27.
"We need to sell more tickets before we commit on the State game," Charles said.
