Kudos to ECU and Terry Holland

They hired Ruffin McNeill as their head coach. I don't know much about him, other than he played at ECU long ago. What does impress me is that ECU hired a black coach, which is great for a program that is as visible as ECU's. Best of luck to him...I hope we get to play the Pirates in the next couple years, it's been a while.

If you watched Texas Tech in their bowl game recently, he was the interim coach. He's been at Texas Tech for a while, worked his way up to Defensive Coordinator, then Interim Coach after the sudden firing of the HC.
