Could former East Carolina letterman and assistant coach Cary Godette be Ruffin McNeil's choice as the Pirates' new defensive line coach?

Godette, who just completed his first season at FIU, has also made coaching stops at Rutgers, NC State, Georgia Tech and Cincinnati.

After graduating from ECU in 1976, Godette was Pat Dye's defensive line coach in 1977. He also spent the 1990-91 seasons on Bill Lewis' staff before following him to Georgia Tech after the memorable Peach Bowl season.

His hometown is the Eastern North Carolina town of Havelock.

Ruffin and Godette were members of the same defense that helped lead ECU to a 1976 Southern Conference title.

The best option would be for Rock Roggeman to recover from his bout with lymphoma and be chosen to continue in the position he was forced to take a leave of absence from about four games into the 2009 season.
