Listen, this post will probably make no difference but I just want to put it out there after tonight's game:
I understand if you live far away, or if you can't afford it, or if you're too old, busy with your kids, etc, and those are all legit excuses. But if you are ABLE to go to these games and just choosing not to because of the COACH or the opponent, PLEASE RECONSIDER.
These kids are BATTLING and chose to come to the University of Pittsburgh when not many wanted to. They seem to have bought in to their coach and are playing hard.
So SUPPORT them. And come even after we lose that game against Towson, or after a trouncing in ACC play. There will be low lows, and I think there will be a few surprise highs as well. But these kids deserve our support.
And Pitt ticket prices are rediculous through Pitt, so if that's your excuse (which isn't a bad one), you can get lower level tickets on Stubhub for like $8 bucks to any game right now. So go!
If you are really are a supporter of Pitt hoops, you'll realize it's what's in the best interest of the program. If there's good attendance and support and Stallings does well, all is well, and if he doesn't then it makes the place even more attractive when looking for a new coach "they still supported even when things weren't good".
But most importantly these kids deserve it!
