Coach Godwin is a class act. Let's hope he remains at ECU until he reaches the age of retirement.

Coach Godwin seems to be a respectful, likeable coach whose players work hard for him. When we (Quinnipiac) lost our first game in the Greenville Regionals to Campbell, the NCAA made us turn around and play ECU immediately after our game that day whereas ECU had several hours to regroup after their game earlier that same day. We realize weather was a factor but being the #4 seed in the winner's bracket, we kind of got shafted by the NCAA having to turn around and play so quickly after losing to the #3 seed, Campbell. Didn't really seem to be in the best interest of the players. Hats off to ECU for winning 4 straight games but ECU being in front of a home crowd with rest in between games definitely was a factor going into our final game with them. If we had held on in the ninth and beaten Campbell that day we would have had 2 chances to play ECU for the regional championship the next day after being well rested. So I guess I'm just saying there are other factors regarding NCAA scheduling affecting other teams, too, not just ECU. Sorry it didn't work out for the Pirates at Louisville because you all had a heck of a lot of talented ball players. Good luck next season. We enjoyed our run in Greenville.

Great job Coach! Thank you for the way you do your job. You have built a culture here that truly captures the Pirate spirit. The chip is front and center. Wish you had been in charge of football for the past 3 years. Thank you for your dedication to our school and players.

Monkey on Back still exists - 30 and no CWS

You fail to acknowledge that Louisville played their five games over four days, while we played our five games over 48 hours. We also had to fly there the day after playing until midnight while they stayed at home. All our pitchers were going on five days rest. No excuses, just facts, but understandable why our boys were playing tired. Cliff’s comments were spot on.

Coach Godwin is an asset to the university, and will hopefully keep the program on the same exceptional trajectory, but it is inarguable that, starting in the 4th inning of the 1st game in Louisville, the Pirates were simply not competitive in any way, shape or form. After losing a couple by a combined 26-1 after 3 days off to a team that was seeded only 3 places higher (and also played 5 games in a regional that finished this past Monday, by the way) Coach's complaints about seeding and scheduling have a poor look about them.

So did Louisville in the ACC tourney and they got the top eight seed even though every metric the NCAA said they'd use was higher for us. Doubt a G5 team will ever get another top 8 seed since Coastal Carolina showed them what G5 teams can do.

Coach Godwin is doing a great job and we had an unbelievable season. Unfortunately we stumbled in the conference tourney and that cost us the top 8 seed. Finishing as one of the top 16 teams in the country is very strong...... Keep it going Coach!

Classy responses after losing a Regional. Impressed with an opposing Coach.

...very happy for Pirates Nation! I watched the livestream of the last four games of the regional, and saw no weakness, up and down the lineup, and at every station on the field. Wow; after kind of stumbling down the backstretch after a stellar season, each of their last four contests was a "backs against the wall" situation, and the Pirates rose to it in a very big way. Every Pirate was locked in, a major time credit to their toughness and to Coach Godwin and his staff. Yes, Coach, thanks be to God. On to Louisville; a look at the Pirates tape will most certainly give the Cards something to think about. Go Pirates!

Best place to watch college baseball is Clark-LeClair @ ECU and the best seat in the house is in "The Jungle"! We'll be there this weekend.

Amazon has them from $5 to $17 each.

Love it....these things become great memories and history. Maybe megaphones become standard equipment for "the Jungle" and make all of college baseball know ECU!

I think Donnelly should be given the nickname 'the Leprechaun' by the Jungle dwellers. Go Pirates, let's win this thing!

If it take older guys to make you better, why recruit high school athletes? Either take the time to grow with your young players, or just recruit juco players period. I would recommend high school parents to be very careful with this guy.
