Carter joins East Carolina football staff

 

Tulane alum Tim Carter has joined the East Carolina football staff as a defensive staff assistant, Coach Skip Holtz announced on Tuesday.

Carter's appointment fills the vacancy created in January when graduate assistant and former Pirate football star Marc Yellock accepted a fulltime position as defensive line coach at Elon. Yellock served the past two seasons as an ECU staff assistant, working primarily with the defensive line.

Carter played with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the Canadian Football League during the 2003 and 2004 seasons after opening his professional career with the New Orleans Saints and Berlin Thunder of NFL-Europe.

"Tim's a young, energetic and articulate guy who has a desire to be at East Carolina," Holtz stated. "He's had a long association with Rick Smith (Pirates secondary coach) so I'm excited about the role he will play assisting him in our secondary. Football is in his blood and he's eager to begin his coaching career. I'm not sure if anyone in his position comes more highly-recommended."

Carter earned four letters as a defensive back at Tulane and played a key role in the Green Wave's perfect 12-0 season in 1998.
