First Blog
The East Carolina University pirates beat West Virginia 24-3. The was the first time since 2001 that West Virginia had not scored a touchdown. It was a big win for the pirates and now they are ranked #14 in the country. Seeing the crown rush the field on a big win like that was incredible, it was something like winning the championship. As a player it was a great feeling knowing that we made the pirate nation very happy and that was the first time that I ever experienced something like that. Having people congratulate you after walking out of the wieght room facility was also a great feeling. Holding a high power offense to 3 points is great too. Being a defensive player it makes me feel like we can hold any team to not scoring a touchdown. But on a not so good note some of the fans who rushed the field were hurt by the police officers and that wasnt a good thing. After a big win like that our fans should be able to enjoy it as much as the players did but its not my place to act upon that because I am representing more than myself being an ECU football player. But I love East Carolina University, I love our fan base, and I love being an ECU football player.

Great job on the game this past weekend man!!! I watched that game and I can't remember the last time I saw a top 10 team get dominated like that on both sides of the football. I hope that you all keep it up and PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE beat up on NC. State so I won't have it hear it from my co-workers..Great Blog
Jeremy,
To be honest, I don't know much about football--but I know alot about teamwork and how the ECU football team is the benchmark that defines the term teamwork and unity. You should always hold your head up high--despite the wins or losses. You and your football brothers unite spirit throughout the ECU family. You are great in all you do. Best wishes, play hard and be proud. I'll be out there rooting for ECU whether we're on top or the underdog. ;O)
