Sanders and Wade
- Thread starter Sean Miller Fan

I think we'll be ok at RB for the next 3 years at least. RB's come out of no where. After the VaTech offer came, I hope they spend no time recruiting him other than a couple tweets from an intern.
Go get OL and LB's.
Neither would see the field for us. I doubt Apke would either. The only WPIAL misses that are hurting us right now are in An Arbor. Winovich looks like a fine player.
The guy who had 1200 yards in 2015? Yes I would. Fat? Damn bro, you really that upset your boy fumbled on his one and only carry?
If African American pride is a decision factor - and there's nothing wrong with that - then can't for the life of me think why a player would choose PSU & State College over Pitt. And anyone that trusts Franklin more than Narduzzi needs to have their head examined. (And Narduzzi is right: an 18 year old is old enough to make their own decision.)
Pretty sure Kane is the alter ego of H2Pittisit/Mauti and a nitter troll.
You're so right. Considering field position that would've been a real big play for Pitt.
Mama Sanders should teach her baby boy that he's to hold onto the ball and not drop it. Seems he hasn't figured that part out.
As far as Wade is concerned he better master the art of the ankle tackle.

Seems as if Wade's first year of eligibility is going to be used on just very minimal PT. No RS for him now.
I still wish he was here instead of there. Steve Apke and his wife should be removed from the annals of Pitt history.
Pitt recruited Wade as hard as anybody. He chose to go there. Time will tell how it all works out. Same as with any recruit.
I know you will get shit for this post, but it is perfectly plausible. It is why I think Narduzzi needs to hire a young, personable and preferably African American AND Local to help recruit.
No. There is no reason to get on SMF He relayed what he heard. That is what these boards are for. I appreciate it. If your delicate sensibilities are offended, but unless you can counter, shut up. Never try and dissuade the truth. Please.
yeah I know you win some and lose some. Same with Jurkovic. I think the stretch of mediocrity did us in more than any recruiting on Narduzzi's end.
different people like different styles. watching Duzz since he has been Pitt's coach, I see nothing but class. Any parent wondering how a coach treats his players needs to watch the Pitt/Clemson game and how Narduzzi handled Blewitt after his missed kicks. that says it all !!
Coaching turnover. Lack of stability and continuity. Relationships are extremely important in recruiting. There are some recruits that decide it's best for them to leave the home area. Some are advised/counseled to do so, too. Others aren't. Depends on the individual.
Pitt will always get their full allotment of scholarship players. It's a matter of getting the right ones that can best help Pitt to win. Keeping a good HC at Pitt long enough to build something and maintain it would also help a lot.
I'm really going to miss this when PSU and Pitt don't play after 2019.I'm serious when I say this I'll miss reading all the sh.. talk about each other on here and BWI it's very intertaining.Hate him or love him I'd take Franklin and his recruiting in a heartbeat at WVU.In my opinion he's a decent coach and a great recruiter that combination is very hard to beat as teams will find out in the future.Kids love him no matter what we say about him and those stars beside a name mean results ever though we don't want to admit it.Franklin is here to stay and will be a thorn in both Pitts's and WVUs side in years to come.Recruiting is the lifeline to success in college football.Pitt and WVU will take a back seat to James in State College because he has more to offer than we do.I hate this but it's true.
I'm not offended in the least.
I do get amused though, when overweight middle aged guys attempt to pretend to be a tough guy, by telling someone else to shut up.
Well done.
I am definitely NOT a racist, but I strongly believe that Franklin has an advantage with black players. Realistically, if you were a minority parent, who would you favor?
The one who didn't attempt to cover up rape.
If you think HS kids care about this, you will be sadly mistaken. They want to win and have fun then get to the NFL.
Which years of those you quoted, had Narduzzi as the coach?
I know some of these topics can be a little overwhelming for some of you PSU fans, but try harder.

Then who does care about the victims? It certainly isn't Penn State or their moronic fans.
PSU has 5 African Americans (including Franklin) on the coaching staff. Pitt has just 3. 4 members of PSU's staff are from PA...and 3 of those are from Pittsburgh. You better believe he wants to take our best...and he's organizationally set up to do it. Heck, if they could fit Raines in, he'd already be theirs. I can't believe I believe that...but I do.
It's not our responsibility to care for them. The atrocities didn't happen on our campus. And don't get it twisted, the victims aren't being used as a prop, Sandusky and Paterno have taken the brunt of the criticism.
That's fair. I guess I did lump your post into a big pot of others throwing darts with a blindfold on.
Ridiculous words. But surely you feel better about standing up to those nasty Pitt fans. Makes you the bold, "stand-up" Pitt fan.
In reality, you type nonsense.
I get the pushback against the sore loser thing, but I was lukewarm on him long before he committed from watching his video. He has good, but not elite football speed. He is not Q fast, maybe he would be faster in a 40, IDK, but on the field he does not have that thing Q and FWP had where he went from 1st to 5th gear in a heart beat. And, he is straight line, he does not have a lot of wiggle.
NOW, I would rather Pitt got him, not doubt. But, he was over rated.
Same to an extent with Wade. Good, maybe pretty good, but not seeing elite.
