And he said thanks but no thanks. This is per Goodman and a few others on Twitter.
 
I don't see the appeal with Howland.
As it relates to Pitt, the feeling appears to be mutual.

As an aside, did somebody from Pitt bang Goodman's wife or something? The guy seems to go out of his way to run down Pitt at every chance

He's pulling in top 10 recruiting classes from Starkville, MS in the SEC conference.

Read that again.

And he also had his shot at Pitt and said you couldn't sustain success here. I'll pass on that.

Really? You don;t happen to remember that little job he did here rebuilding the Pitt basketball program from the bottom of the trash can to a BE champion in 3 years?

You think his understudy, Dixon, could have done that? I don't.

No way he comes back, but if he was interested, he would be a grand slam hire.

As much as I wanted to see Sean Miller coaching my Pitt Panthers, I think even more I just wanted to hear that smug, arrogant blow-hard Goodman have to eat his words and say how wrong he was on Sean going home. Damn

Yes, really. Given how he left I don't want him back.

Howland would be a grand slam home run that landed in the Mon (not the Allegheny). He is so, so far ahead of every other candidate, including any Miller.

EDIT: I'll add the caveat that he is not "so, so far ahead" of Gregg Marshall, but I don't consider him a candidate.

Jeff Goodman went to Arizona so I think that has a large part to do with his condescending attitude towards Pitt currently.
