Duke offensive coordinator Scottie Montgomery is expected to be hired as head coach at East Carolina, a source told FOX Sports Saturday night.

The 37-year-old North Carolina native, a Duke grad, has been the Blue Devils' offensive coordinator the past two seasons.

ECU fired Ruffin McNeill, an ECU alum, last week. McNeill had won 23 games in the past three years.
