The Pirates entered the season with a new offensive and defensive coordinator. Earlier in the off-season Glen Ferebee was brought on board to be the Quarterbacks coach at Hampton. However, on July 2, he was named as the new offensive coordinator.[1] Meanwhile, Bernard Clark Jr. was brought back to be the Pirates defensive coordinator. Previously Clark served as defensive coordinator for Hampton under Rose in 2009.[2]
At the MEAC Media Days on July 26, Hampton was picked to finish 6th in the 2013 MEAC season.[3] Hampton also entered the season with one defensive player and two special teams players having been selected for 2nd team All-Conference.[4]
They finished the season 4–8, 4–4 in MEAC play to finish in a three-way tie for fifth place.
At the end of the season, head coach Donovan Rose was fired after 5 seasons.
