Meeting canceled

Get ready for the meltdown,looks like pitt picked someone already,it's not Miller

This meeting was called two months ago. Certainly one of the topics would have been the coaching search, but other things would have been discussed as well. I don’t think they have hired anyone.
 
The meeting agenda was to go over the candidates,what else would be the reason to cancel if u didn't already know who u wanted to hire
 
Lyke knew this meeting was to get Miller in as coach and an on campus stadium for football but she hired a coach before the meeting could happen. She also is bringing back dynocat.

What else could the reason be?
Word is that the meeting was cancelled BECAUSE of the search. Several of the people involved in the search didn't want to take time away from the search process - they're busy actually trying to hire a coach - and didn't want to sit in a long, boring university meeting. I used to work for one. Meetings are deadly, at all levels. And like 99% of them, this one wouldn't have been productive either.

Thats not entirely true. While that was certainly a topic, you acting like that was the reason for this meeting is patently false
 
My sources are telling me that there were conflicting choices of pizza toppings, meeting was canceled to avoid the situation from escalating.
The Bagels v Donut factions could not come together.

Summers coming!!!!
Next meeting in August to look for new shades of blue and gold.

I'm told by a Pitt spokesperson, "A long-standing Athletics Committee Meeting scheduled for today has been postponed due to staff commitments related to the head men’s basketball coaching search and their commitments to get a fish sandwich at St. Raphaels in Morningside"

Friday in Lent and some knucklehead bought two pepperoni and three sausage pies is the official word on this....

all right everybody...what is so damn horrible about this Schmidt dude? If I have to hate someone, I would like to know why. Seems like a mob mentality on him.

Lyke walking up and down Forbes with a sign saying, Wanted. Men's Head Basketball Coach. No experience necessary.
 
Near the end of his career, and has a spottier resume than Stallings. I bet we give HIM the $3.5M for 10 years and guarantee THAT!
He's 55. Not sure what made Stalling resume that spotty, but who out there has a less "spotty" resume than Stallings that is in play.

Pitt did a rare thing in college hoops and let go of their coach after only 2 seasons. Also did a rare, unexpected thing for Pitt, who are normally cheap and gave Stallings a huge buy out and offered a huge deal to an up and coming coach.

All those marks do not add up to Pitt settling on Schmidt and would be highly disappointing if it happens.
 
Actually, I think they cancelled the meeting because so many in the committee wanted to watch the PSU hockey team in the NCAA tourney instead.

no limit....kind of all talk but never answers...just enlighten us with a Cliff notes version of the fabulous resumes of potential Pittt hires...
Stallings was better. That speaks volumes. That's my last response to you. I don't interact with trolls.

I agree 100%, that’s why I don’t think they will
 
There is major paranoia. This is the time of the year EVERY year that the Boards meet. It wasn't just called because the mbb coaching search is in shambles (or in some eyes' it is).
