The Narduzzi Contract

Lol, where to even begin with this.

1. Stability - this is an adjective people use when there really isn't anything all that appealing to say about a coach. It's like a realtor saying a house has potential. Everybody knows what you're saying. Who cares about stability? I want results. Narduzzi was 8-4 and 8-4 in history first two seasons here. In his most two recent he'll be 3-9 and 7-5. Tell me more about this "stability." If anything it's time to experience the recruiting bump that comes with bringing in a new coach.

2. What a sanctimonious take to act like we couldn't do any better with anyone else. Like, that's borderline insane. You'd have told me Syracuse couldn't do any better than Dino Babers if you were a fan of them. Nope, after Dino averaging 5 wins for 8 years, they're going to win 8 or 9 this season. You'd have told me Kansas couldn't make a bowl again before Leipold got there. You'd have told me there's no way 1-11 Colorado could go 8-3 in year two of a new coach's tenure. Do you want 1,000 more examples? Ever hear of a school called Indiana?

Guess what we're also proving? Stability doesn't mean a damn thing. Ask Wake Forest how they're enjoying years 10 and 11 of Dave Clawson.

To say that people don't understand that Narduzzi is the best we can do... get out of here with that defeatist nonsense.
There is the flipside…I don’t blame posters for getting it off their chest. After a day or two, you need clarity. What separates posters on this board is how long do they continue to rant and be irrational.

Bitter losses are not limited to Pitt football. If you want a sorry group of fans to talk to, try Texas A&M. Their last National Championship was in 1939. They have more money than God. They have great support. They hire and fire coaches at will, and they still can’t get it done. They don’t believe in stability; they believe in results and they ain’t getting’ them.

Some others to consider:

Ole Miss – Last National Championship: 1960
Arkansas - Last National Championship: 1964
Iowa - Last National Championship: 1958
Kentucky – No National Championship
South Carolina – No National Championship

There’s lots more schools that are bigger, have more money and better support that I could list…You don’t think they want to win???? How about our contemporaries:

VT, NC, NCST, Virginia, Duke, WVU, Louisville, Wake, BC…. How many National Championships and conference titles do they have? Besides Clemson, FSU and Miami, they got nothing on Pitt…I can go on and on…

How many players do these schools have that are in the PFHOF? CFHOF? How many All-Americans?

Narduzzi is not perfect. Does he piss me off? Hell yes. The fact remains that he’s the best we’ve had since Majors/Sherrill. You don’t believe me?

Compare records. Compare most wins against teams that finished in the Top 25. Compare conference championships. Compare Narduzzi’s best wins against previous head coaches not named Majors and Sherrill. How about All-Americans? MSU has not been the same since Narduzzi left. Truth.

Could we do better? Maybe. But how long before he gets poached? It’s not that easy. If you fire Narduzzi tomorrow, you’ll get the same results or worse from the next coach. I believe that 100%

The answer is not an on-campus stadium or changing head coaches and buying out their contracts.

It’s more money. Mo money = better players, recruiters and coaches.

The Narduzzi Contract

The Narduzzi contract…can we rehire Lyke and then fire her all over again for the mess she has made!
If you want to talk results, Pitt isn't going to get any better results than they have already gotten under Narduzzi. Doesn't matter if the coach is Narduzzi or someone else. That isn't defeatist. It's reality.

Most coaching changes are good to clear the air and feed some grass to the sheep. There really isn't that much substance behind them unless it relates to a procurement of talent. And 4 or 5 years ago, it mattered. Today it really doesn't. Indiana got their bump because Cigs was able to bring over an ungodly number of upperclassmen & IU's schedule was ass. Next year, the Hoosiers will go right back to being irrelevant.

They can keep Narduzzi, fire Narduzzi, whatever... Success isn't really possible or sustainable without getting high end talent. Can't be done.
blah, blah, blah pure horse manure. Spoken like a PSU troll.
