    Eli Holstein - Bama QB transfer

    I hope he doesn't come to Pitt. I've already heard enough of the cow references.

    A positive prediction for 2024

    Will need to see who gets added through the portal, of which there should be many, before a real guess can be made. Reactions to your comments below in bold. QB - Will be significantly better. Could not be worse. YN instantly showed more than either of the other 2, with Cignetti. If he is the...

    If Twitter followings of the new OC are an indication

    This doesn't mean what it used to. A few years ago, it was mostly about building relationships. That's still important, but if that's all ya got, you'll get run over by the guys with the big NIL cash bags.

    Go Pitt

    I can do more than imagine it. My wife was a therapist there as a clinical psych grad student years ago. As you might guess, she heard some bizarre stuff. What made it really spooky was that some of it was not considered to be very abnormal in that world.

    Purdue vs FDU

    FDU up one at half. Purdue probably wins in the end, but will have a short tournament run. FDU quickness is exposing one of Purdue's several flaws.

    Pitt transfers this year

    Pitt's history of transfers has generally not been good. Ontario Lett was good, but most have been disappointing. This year's transfers have been surprisingly good, with one exception. Hinson: He's what I hoped he would be. He had success at Ole Miss, but has been out for two years. He's a big...

    2022 season

    The 'I'll need proof' posts crack me up. Duh, yes I'd like to wait until we're in the second half of the season before I make my prediction on how many games we'll win too. But this is pre-season message board chatter; there is no harm in making a guess. I'm certainly more optimistic than I've...

    Thoughts on Slovis this year?

    None of us knows how Slovis is going to look in camp or at the start of the season, but if he is really good, it shouldn't be a surprise. He's had enough big time success that it won't be stretch at all. He did make some bad decisions in the spring game, but its a small sample size. I really...

    Heinz Field No More

    As long as its going to be called Acrisure Stadium, why not go all in and add the name 'Steve Pederson Field.' Seems appropriate. Oh wait, what with the Ped start to his last name, people that don't remember our AD will assume he was the Penn State AD.

    Fall camp

    Does anyone know when Pitt's fall camp starts? I can't find anything. Thanks in advance.

    Bye Greensboro ..... Hello Charlotte

    Its location is not really important. But having said that, has anyone ever been to downtown Greensboro? It's a trick question. Greensboro doesn't have a downtown.

    Big Ten Challenge Opponent?

    If this is true, that teams rotate home and away games, then we'd never play Penn State, or any team is aligned with us (half of the league) on the H/Away basis. Can't believe this is the case.

    How to make soccer watchable

    Golf has not just one, but many great young golfers, but none with ever be stars if network coverage of golf tournaments only shows Tiger Woods. As they went to break during the PGA, they said they'd be back with more coverage of "Tiger Woods...and other golfers." Those other golfers included...

    Landing the Diaz Twins Changes Perspective

    I generally agree, but… Let’s say the twins have good years. Watching their film again has convinced me that they have the talent to be good right away. In he old old days, like five years ago, their freshman year success would’ve put the program in a good spot going forward. But now? They...

    Fitzgerald and Addison

    OMG, several of you are guilty of taking very suspect internet rumors about the situation and treating them as if they're facts. None of us knows what USC actually offered, what Pitt may or may not have countered with; all rumors that I put no stock in. Working up a financial spreadsheet based...

    Fitzgerald and Addison

    I'm trying to put this whole thing in perspective. Fitzgerald was great at Pitt, then left after 2 years. Addison was too, and did the same. Both did it for the money. Fitz is held in high regard by Pitt fans, while Addison is about to be forgotten, hated, etc., depending upon your attitude at...

    OT: Va Tech salaries

    Yes, and will continue to be over rated each preseason.

    Addison: "I'm going to finish my career here"

    I don't see what difference the location of American Eagle has to do with the location of where a guy plays. He had a nice deal with them 3000 miles away.

    Does it hurt recruiting

    Keep in mind that Whipple didn't do any recruiting. He'd meet with interested recruits, particularly QBs, but that was it. And we got a high QB transfer now without an OC. A big thing that matters to recruits on offense, with or without an OC, is the style of offense that will be run. That can...

    Pre-season Poll Reminder

    I saw this too. To show you how bad and utterly useless the preseason polls are...of the 11 of the 25 that the AP writers "got right", most of them were gimmies. Georgia, Bama, Ohio State, and Clemson were four of the 11; they finish in the top 25 every year. And Notre Dame and Oklahoma were two...
