Jimmy Copeland on Man with deep roots notes Pirates’ progress

Coach Overton will always have a special place with ECU baseball fans. I also grew up in Ahoskie, NC and we all are very proud of his accomplishments and what he means to the ECU family.

AAARRRGGGGHHHHH! on Pirates grind to success

So very thankful for the amazing coaches that we have in Pirate Nation right now. In particular, Godwin and Houston. Classy men who do things the right way. I hope all in Pirate land will let these fellas know how much we appreciated them and what they are both building in G'Vegas. Love to see them here for a long long time. Exciting times for Pirates. It's fun to watch the boys of summer and now, genuinely looking forward to the fall again. Also Looking to see the BB Pirates get on track and be a competitor on tobacco road. Thanks for all you do!!!!

Jim C on Pirates prevail at less than best

Great performance from Merritt Beeker, he could potentially be a real key down the stretch and into post season play. He was very highly recruited and was one of the best pitchers in NC high school last year. I am a bit surprised he has not played a bigger role with more innings to date. Now that our RPI is #35, as long as we finish strong with these last 7 games at home we are likely in line for an at large bid even if we do not win the Conference tournament. No host this year but the team has battled through a lot of adversity and is coming on strong down the stretch run.

Gonna get there! on State turns back Pirates

Young team - lot's of potential - if you watched the game, we hit it pretty well - stranded several runners - losing our ace for the season has not helped. Only gonna get better as I see it.

Elliott on State turns back Pirates

"State turns back Pirates"?? More like a complete BEAT DOWN! Last time Pirates won in Raleigh, Obama was President - in his FIRST term.

Irish Spectre on ECU faces uphill battle in hunt for tight ends

In summary, ECU has a prayer of acquiring a single targeted TE, for whom, by the way, they are competing with 18 other programs. ...could've saved yourself a bunch o' pixels!!

Irish Spectre on ODU rallies in 9th to nip ECU

Coach yanks guys like it's going out of style; he must've had no arms left, because normally I'd have expected him to pull Grosz after 2 consecutive hits to start the 9th (including an extra bagger and a run), never mind 3 in a row; wow.

Irish Spectre on Fast start sends Cincy past Pirates

...been waiting for the Pirates to get going this season; Cinci has a losing record, as does Bryant, which swept them to start the season. ...thought the LeClair Classic performance was the turnaround moment for the Pirates, but nope. The Carson Whisenhunt matter is obviously a blow, but that doesn't account for all of the mediocrity. In the recent analysis of the season to date in this column, you can clearly see Godwin's frustration, but the question remains whether they're underperforming, or were they overrated. The bottom line is that the differences between most teams in high level sports is a very thin line, pretty easily crossed due to a variable or two. There's still time to get it going; hopefully it'll start with this first conference series.

What is wrong with ECU baseball? We finally get a winning season in Football, our basketball team avoids a losing season barely, and now the baseball team is playing like this seasons basketball team. Baseball has been what fans could always count on, with it having way more winning seasons than either football or basketball combined. Were the expectations too high for this team, or are they not playing up to their talent level so far? Also, why do you have to go NCAA baseball scores to find out the results of ECU baseball scores most games?

ECUVol on Volunteers first for Schwartz, for now

Being a University of Tennessee and ECU grad, I can't say how excited I am to see the impact that Coach Schwartz will have on our basketball team. Welcome aboard coach. Goo...Pirates!!

ECU GRad on Dooley gets the boot

The problem with our big donors and our athletic administration has always been that they do not consider the environment we are in an the challenges we face as a result of that environment. The majority of schools that we play in the AAC are from major population centers which gives just about every basketball team in the AAC and advantage over us in recruiting as we are from an less populated, essentially rural, area. Add that to the fact that we have 4 in state AAC school to compete with and it the result is that we have a basketball program that is extremely challenged to bring in strong talented players. Has any coach been all that successful here?

Irish Spectre on Tuesday, March 15, 2022

Coach's statement on the Whisenhunt matter is well worth the listen. CW obviously is a difference maker; his loss for the season is an irrefutable blow to the program, yet Coach strikes a perfect tone of magnanimity and mercy. Pirates Nation is very fortunate to have him.

Bill Totten on Dooley gets the boot

I'm disappointed in this decision. In a crazy period for all sports with Covid, transfer portal etc. it is tough for any program to be successful. I think he should have been given more time. Back to the drawing board again and again will never allow us to move forward. I felt like he was dedicated to the program but what do I know, I only give a lot of money for others to make mistakes with.....

Derick on Dooley gets the boot

I doubt coach K would be successful here. Dooley has been successful everywhere but East Carolina. In the "one and done" era no talented kid is going to come here. Maybe we belong in the CAA for basketball or maybe some intramural league.
