Nice PG article on rise of Pitt soccer as a national power

[CrazyPaco]

Rightfully called it one of the most impressive turn around stories in all of Division 1 athletics history.

Pitt's first game of the NCAA tournament, as the #2 overall seed, is Sunday at 8pm.

Pitt soccer was searching for its first ACC win four years ago. Now, it's among the national title favorites

Distant as it may seem, Michael Behonick can still remember his first day as an assistant coach with the Pitt men’s soccer program in January 2016,...

They hired arguably the best college coach in the nation so this isnt hard to believe. If DePaul hired Calipari, I'd expect them to be one of the best teams in the country in a few years

DePaul has a lot more basketball history than Pitt soccer had, and better backyard recruiting territory too, and better facilities comparatively. But yes, he's one of the best collegiate soccer coaches for sure.

How was what I posted anything but positive? We hired the Calipari of soccer. I posted here when he was hired he might win a National Championship here. What he is doing is not surprising.

Instead of just saying great hire for Pitt you compare it to a small catholic college in Chicago that hasn’t been a basketball power in over 40 years. Pitt is a major division 1 university playing in a top five power conference.

And Pitt soccer was the worst soccer program from a major conference just as DePaul is the worst basketball program from a major conference. It was a perfect example. Pitt hired a HOF level coach and he's winning. Its no surprise just as nobody would be surprised if Calipari won big at DePaul.

Exactly what about that post do you not agree with?

This is one of the most bizarre threads. I make a 100% accurate point about Pitt hiring a great coach and somehow its gone off the rails.
