Ruffin McNeill was a three-year starter at defensive back for the Pirates in the late 1970s before being named head coach in January 2010. In six seasons, McNeill led the Pirates to four bowl appearances and posted the fifth-most head coaching victories in program history, while developing 12 first-team all-conference selections and a trio of MVP/Player-of-the-Year award winners. In 2013 he led ECU to just the second 10-win season in program history.
