As Pitt was contemplating firing Paul Evans...... some "Search Firm" arranged to take him from us and pass him off to a school that had been more successful than us, without us having to pay a buyout. And then we got a great up-and-coming coach in his place.

What would we think of that school... the "suckers" who took Evans off our hands?

We'd be laughing at them.

Vanderbilt (and all of college basketball) is laughing at Pitt today.

Sad part is, Pitt did get the hot up and coming coach at the time. And he failed miserably.

And the even sadder part is that Willards failure was brought on, at least in part, by the Miller clan, who have also played a part in this debacle. It's the circle of Pitt's death!
