A Tyler Palko type who runs people over type. Eli is soft. Hope he reads this and proves me wrong
I hope to never know who played in the bowl game for us. I can't even fathom wanting to watch these things anymore.
Why would you risk playing him in an exhibition game? He doesnt need another concussion in a game like this.
If I was a coach playing a MAC team the day after Christmas, I'd just try to make it as entertaining as possible. I'd let linemen kick off, let fans call the plays, wear a different Halloween mask on the sidelines each quarter, etc. F it; this game isn't even important enough to be called meaningless.
Funny thing is our basketball team turned down the NIT, which is much more difficult to make than these minor bowl games. Only the best 45ish teams in the country out of 350 make the NCAAT so making the NIT isnt a really easy thing to do.
Yeah, and I was in favor of it at the time... but if you look at the Capel era as a whole, that was his 2nd best season out of six. Opting out of the NIT kind of has the feel of a chubby Walmart greeter who turns down a 6.5 because he has his hopes set on Jennifer Lawrence.
I dont think so. First, where will he go that is an upgrade and who will pay for potentially damaged goods?
Well, at least when we loose to Toledo in the crap bowl and finish on a six game losing streak, Eli being out will give the usual HCPN defenders a reason for the loss.
It was his best season. Our resume was better than the year before but there were 4-5 bid stealers and the bubble was historically strong. It was just Pitt opting out though. Many teams did. Pitt basketball last year was the equivalent to a 9-3 season but then opting out of the Sun Bowl.
