ECU update
Hey guys, prior to the season I gave a rundown on the ECU offense and defense. As I said then, Kurt Benkert was way ahead of our other two Qbs. KB had a season ending injury. His backup, Sr Cody Keith never fully recovered from last seasons injuries and was passed by lightly recruited JUCO Blake Kemp. Keith eventually left the team. Former 4* (recruited by ECU as a receiver) and Nayion's 3rd Rated HS Dual Threat QB James Summers was switched to QB.

ECU lead by Kemp, beat Townson Week 1. Week 2 ECU played Florida very close, having a chance to tie the game with less than a minute. ECU moved the ball to inside the UF 10 yrd line before Kemp fumbled the ball. We next played Navy who destroyed us. ECU has always had trouble defending Navy's option attack.

We played Va. Tech at home. After 2 quick Kemp turnovers VT jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead. ECU switched QB and put in Simmers. Summers rushed for 160 yards and led ECU to a come from behind win over the ACC team.

Yestsay same story. SMU jumped to an early 23-7 lead before we made the switch to Summers. ECU scored 42 unanswered points. The defense also came alive, sacking SMU qb 8 times.

We had a top receiver recently get out of Coach Ruff's dog house and he has been a huge impact on the offense.

Special teams, especially the punting game has looked good. 5 of the last six punts have been inside the 10 and the 6 was downed at the 12.

I look forward to traveling to Provo for the game. I hope both teams come out injury free.
