Then.....have a "draft" with the elementary schools in the Pittsburgh area. Have each school pick a player at Pitt (in draft form) to follow for the season. That will be "their" player. The player will try to stop by the school to make appearances to speak with the kids, help out in any way, etc., but will maintain contact with them throughout the year to update them regarding games, practices, etc.
Each Monday the school can announce how Pitt did the previous weekend and how their player did, if applicable. Another way to start kids early. If they are not Pitt fans they can still form a friendship with the player. Again, start them young.

And if needed, use what Louisville did as a model to build Pitt's financial base.-you look around your domain, and what is it you absolutely have to immediately address in the pitt athletic department.
