ECU Defensive Coordinator Josh Aldridge is leaving for the same position at South Florida. Holton Ahlers dropped the news on “Pirate Radio Live” on Monday.
Aldridge came to ECU and began work on Dec. 18, 2024. He previously worked at Auburn, according to his bio from ECUPirates.com. “Serving as the defensive edge coach in 2024, he was part of a staff that finished among the FBS leaders (Top 31) in first down defense (21st/213), redzone defense (28th/78.4 pct.), rush defense (28th/117.8 ypg), scoring defense (31st/21.3 ppg) and total defense (31st/330.8 ypg).”
This seson’s defense was among the best in the country and has already received postseason honors ahead of the team’s appearance in the Military Bowl against Pittsburgh.
