driving 4 hours one way for a hoops game is a bit over board. Maybe a good Saturday conference game but to drive 4 hours for a wed night game in January is border line insanity.
Love cozi tv. No clue what this channel is but it’s been a godsend for pitt hoops.
Exactly, I do go to 1-2 football games per year, and I pair them up with Steelers games on Sunday. I have also paired up Steelers games with Saturday Pitt hoops games in December. I'm a Pitt fan, but not a FANATIC who feels guilty if they miss a game. And I always stay the night at my brothers house, he's a Pitt guy and we go to the games together. He's a Pitt season ticket holder. I've been on like 60-70 trips for football games in Pittsburgh the last 25 years and only once drove back immediately after a game, NEVER AGAIN! If I can't have FUN and drink at the tailgate and go out somewhere after the game, then crash out all night, I DON'T WANT TO GO.
We never should have hired him to begin with. If he had recruited some good players, then I’d be okay with giving him some more time. But his recruiting has been mediocre at best. He has landed 11 guys on his own, and re-recruited 3 guys that were verbals when he got here. None of these guys were Top 100 recruits. 4 of them were NEC level recruits, 3 of them are no longer here, and the last kid just got kicked off his Juco team.
In a way. If it brings action from the administration sure that's great. But it certainly hasn't helped at all in football when nobody will come to a game the week after Pitt beats #2 on the road and only show up when Pitt is a 10+ win team. Somewhere there's a fine line between loyal and blind loyalty.
I am not putting anyone into buckets. I am not basing my opinion on emotions. If he had done ANY of the following, then I’d say he deserves more time.
I would agree that record/if they win 2-3 ACC games doesn’t matters at this point. If you think rationally, this record or something close to it was expected given the wholesale cast of new and inexperienced players compounded by the loss of Luther. If he gets fired after this year, it will be less about this year’s record and much more so about the dreadful attendance and how much Lyke and/or other decision makers feel that poor attendance is influenced by the pure fan hatred of Stallings as opposed to just bad W/L record. If they feel it is more about W/L record, then he may not get fired yet unless they have some extreme confidence/assurance of a ‘name’ hire. A lesser hire isn’t going to change next year’s record much.
well I don't get it in HD so I like espn too but it sure as hell beats me watching it on a laptop or having to find my hdmi cable
any sports channel where I can watch pitt on an HD channel, I like. Anything where I don't have to stream something online for my sports content, I like. ESPN sticks with sports, they will be ok. they start pushing the anti white male, social justice liberal snowflake garbage, that's when they get in trouble.
Neither Dixon or Stallings could recruit for the ACC at Pitt. Pitt has no established recruiting territory any more.
You're right, nobody knew who Ben was, but fans really bitched because he was a no name and he was not from the east. Fans finally quit bitching after "the run" of the NIT year. At the time, a couple former players even complained to me about Ben not being from the east.
we are not offended, we are just turning the channel. Hence the reason they lay off 100 people every other week. quit playing the victim SMF, normal red-blooded americans don't care what color your skin is or what gender you think you are this week.
