Pat Narduzzi was widely lauded for staying with Pitt instead of considering Michigan State. Big of him, since he was under contract for several more seasons. And who's to say, Narduzzi walked away from MSU only when he was told the job would not be his. It's been known to happen.

He’s such a dick.

Smizik sounds as unprepared to make a point as a few of the posters on this site.

I can't think of one coach in the country not under contract for several more seasons.
 
Doesn't Harbaugh only have a year or two left?
Could be, I don't know. That would seriously hamstring his recruiting, and is very unusual for a school to do that to their program.

If that's the case, I would expect Harbaugh to be looking for his next gig, because it sounds as if Michigan has already made their mind up to go another route for a coach.
 
I thought he was dead...

Tail gunner Bob has always had a case of the red azz for Pitt.
Some perceived slight by Pitt against him has caused him to hold a grudge for decades.

Does he mean Narduzzi walked away from Michigan state when he came to Pitt or that he walked away from Michigan state last week when he found out that they were not that interested in him?

it's a little unclear to me.

Either way it really doesn't matter. Pitt fans should hope he wins big [ a couple of seasons with fewer than 5 losses] over the next 5 years or so.

If it works out that way, nobody will really care, one way or the other, if Michigan State was intrested in hiring PN or not.

I've heard that about him for years, and if true, what a professional way to conduct your job; hold a grudge like a 14 year old.
 
That is not it at all!

Duzz squelches the rumor and says he wants to be here. This douche takes a swipe at Pitt and Duzz by saying maybe he was never offered the job......how in the hell does he know? This could have been a nice opportunity to commend Duzz and Pitt for staying and keeping a coach in place it clearly wants to be here.......but Noooooo


Sorry I call 'em like I see 'em



You guys kill me. Smiz again another Pitt grad who was THE SPORTS EDITOR OF THE PITT NEWS. But hey you douches may be right. he was a Nitter the whole time. smdh.

He definitely had a shitty take, but how many times have coaches repeated their commitment only to leave a month or two later.

I won’t be confident in it until MSU actually hires someone. Not a knock against Narduzzi personally, but history has taught me not to trust any college football coach’s word.

They could make $24 million over 6 years instead of $22 million. I mean, who can fault them for jumping at the opportunity to be slightly more ridiculously overpaid. It’s not like they preach family, honor, and loyalty to a bunch of teenagers and their parents.
 
Everyone is different! I have not seen Duzz say one and do another! You have to take a man at his word unless he proves you wrong.

He is not going to MSU and said that as well as texting out a wolf of wall street meme.......that could have been a great story to tell but he chose the negative route.....he is not a Pitt man as far as I am concerned!

Bozo the blogger had a lovefest for Joke Pa when he was nearing his end, and Bozo the blogger admitted much admiration for everything Joke Pa did!

So yes, Bozo the blogger did go to Pitt, but he sure is NO FRIEND to Pitt!

“But the best news is this: The legacy of Joe Paterno has been restored. His statue on the Penn State campus should be back in place no later than Monday. He once again is the winningest coach in major college football history.”

“But the best news is this: The legacy of Joe Paterno has been restored. His statue on the Penn State campus should be back in place no later than Monday. He once again is the winningest coach in major college football history.”
I never saw that comment, as I stopped checking his Blog a few years earlier after he was defending Paterknew, and I had enough, after the CULT lit some Candles for the Victims, then claimed the PSU CULT Members(Lead by the Dude-forget his name, who runs their Rivals Website/Recruiting Magazine, who looks like the Goofy Amish Guy in the 'Kingpin' Movie, Franco, Anthony NoBraino and Fats Paterknew-the Son who is the equivalent of Shawshank Trump Junior and Eric Shawshank Trump, who Gravy Trained off his Dad's Name) were the real victims. So Smizek further defending Paterknew, just had me thinking, I do not want to read another thought from him again.

I actually never had any problems with most of Smizek's criticisms of PITT Football in prior Blogs or PG Columns, as sometimes it was valid, and I do not live in denial about the past problems of PITT Football, so it was not like I was always Anti-Smizek, but the after his defending Paterknew, he was dead to me.

Smizek knows like we all do that no one farted in Creepy Valley without Paterknew knowing about it, so of course he knew what his DC was doing to Little Boys(Did the CULT ever return their 2 National Titles, since it only happened because of that DC, since they say it was all about him and his Scandal alone?).

The Coach of a Major College Football Program is a Leadership Position at a University, and Paterknew was rightfully Fired, as he no longer carried out his responsibilities as a Leader(and I even defended him around 2003 when the President and his the Puppet AD went to his house to try and get him to resign, as I said he built up that Program where he deserved to choose when to retire, but after the Sandusky/PSU Scandal, I said that Paterknew needed to be fired and not given the chance to leave at the end of the season on his own terms).

A Leader does not 'wait a few days after hearing what the Ginger QB Coach said to him, so not ruin anyone's weekend'. The emails with the AD that referred to 'Coach wants to know what is happening'. Who-The Softball Coach?

Creepy Valley and their CULT disgusts me and their Logo will always be a reminder of 'Moderate Success with Dishonor', and most importantly, The Worst Scandal in College Sports History(although Baylor Football came Close overlooking the Women Raped by Football Players-Religious School-Yeah Right, Bunch of Hypocrites). Honestly, if the Sandusky Cover Up happened at PITT, I would have demanded that Our FB Program be placed on the 5 Year Death Penalty. Although, I have more integrity than those CULT Cow Tippers.

He does look like someone who was outed by clowns because he doesn't have bright red hair and bleach white skin.
