    Sean Miller available

    I’d be all for bringing him in to take Capel’s job... Jason Capel that is.

    Update on Champagnie

    Absolutely no reason not to do this. How does he return to Pitt now though? Is the season’s start delayed? The combine will be held virtually in late September as the draft isn’t until November now. Seems very late to officially rejoin Pitt if that is the decision made.

    Top Ten Pitt Shot Blockers since 1999-2000 season. TB has 3 of top 10.

    I really thought he was the one guy from Stallings’ class that Pitt had to keep. Even more so than Marcus Carr, because as we are witnessing a skilled big doesn’t come around every day. Like mentioned in this thread, had he gradually gotten better every season than you have the #3 shot blocker...

    Terrell Brown enters portal as graduate transfer

    Yeah I personally would’ve preferred he come back to Pitt. But that would be great to see him be a part of a winning team next season, regardless of if he’s a major contributor or not.

    Zags or Michigan

    If anyone left on this board ...

    It can be done. Do you trust Pitt to find the guy that can do it though? Most likely Pitt would go with a safe hire and stand behind him as he goes through a rebuild for the next several years.

    If anyone left on this board ...

    Basically what it comes down to... Capel immediately brought in 2 4-star recruits when the program was at the lowest points it’s ever been. Pitt needs to build a team to win sooner than later. They can’t begin another rebuild already. So it’s much more likely Capel can still get a recruit or...

    If anyone left on this board ...

    Agree. I think his on court product has not been good enough in 3 years. But I’ll give him another go around with a recruiting class before I call him a bad hire.

    10 Years Ago Today

    He was still trending down, only because his Big East run was so good. Best winning percentage in conference history good. I disagree that he wouldn’t have made it in the ACC. Like you said, 3 tourneys in 5 years. Pitt with Dixon was probably never going to be an ACC power, but we are still...

    ACC Tourney

    Maybe spoke to soon lol, FSU in trouble today.

    ACC Tourney

    Sorry that may have sounded confusing, I didn’t mean at least 11 as far as seeding. I meant we don’t know the opponent for sure yet but we at least know we will almost certainly be the 11 seed playing Tuesday at 7.

    ACC Tourney

    Joe probably explained it a little better right after. ND’s last game is at home vs. FSU though, so most likely we will at least be the 11 seed playing Tuesday night at 7.

    ACC Tourney

    As the standings currently sit, it looks like we’d play BC. BC at 2-10 is ahead of Miami at 3-15 despite the same win percentage on ESPN. Those two teams play each other Friday night. If BC wins I believe they clinch the 13 seed and Wake actually drops to 14. If Miami wins I think BC...

    Wake Forest Game @ The Pete & Other Dribbles ...

    And I know people like to rip on him, but it’s not like he’s done absolutely nothing at Pitt. He’s 1 blocked shot away from tying Sam Clancy for 3rd all-time in Pitt basketball history. That’s pretty good.

    Austin Butler

    A 1-year player that can shoot? Seems like exactly what Capel is looking for. He’d be a really solid addition to next year’s team.

    Pitt vs WF Gamethread

    I really thought we would miss Toney defensively, but that hasn’t been the case so far. Champ was much improved on that end tonight. Granted it was Wake Forest, but it appeared the players communicated on defense well tonight.

    We Will Not Win Again

    Why is Andrew Filliponi on the Pitt board?

    We’re Back!!!!

    As always the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. Pitt isn’t on the fast track to greatness next season, but they won’t be Stallings year 2 level either. This looks like a solid team, and the pieces they need it’s still very possible they can bring in before next season.

    Historical data regarding Capel/outgoing transfers

    Yeah you never know, if there were a college basketball “free agency” during his tenure at VCU and at OU it’s possible that more guys would have left too. I can’t remember the exact year, but I think it was maybe only his last couple years at OU that even the grad transfer rule came into play?
