Pitt will be favored in 2 of our final 3 games, and all are winnable.Someday it has to change for Pitt. Hopefully with Narduzzi at the helm and if he doesn't leave it won't be much longer.

8 wins is the floor.
You need to get a grip. We have three losses to teams weith a combined record of 25-2 and all three ranked.
Okay and if you reread my post I am not talking about the next time we play them. Obviously with Narduzzi at the helm hopefully upgrading recruiting I agree with you. I am talking about this season finishing up and I don't see us winning at the most, 1 more game.The OP has his head up his ass.
Yes...ND has more talent and is a better team
And yes, we got hammered today, even though the stats say otherwise.
But this team has a different feel to it than the past regimes. This years team will be the low point in the Narduzzi era and the next time these teams meet, we will witness a far more evenly matched contest.
We don't historically play well against "speed" and since we right now have NONE of Narduzzi's recruits obviously teams like Louisville and Miami will have a field day against our defense. Only game I see us winning is Duke and that is very iffy.

The real shame is they still allow you to post on any of these boards.Someday it has to change for Pitt. Hopefully with Narduzzi at the helm and if he doesn't leave it won't be much longer.
Hope you're right too.We beat Miami last year in Miami with no more team speed than we have this year. And they weren't a team in as much disarray as they are this year.
And Louisville recruits worse than we do. We'll be favored in that game.

Yeah, they really do. Despite our turmoils, their recruiting rankings the past several years for their classes have been worse than ours.Louisville doesn't recruit worse than Pitt.
Exactly how is the season a mirage? I think most realistic fans, (actual pitt fans, not nitter trolls looking to compromise a good season) were hoping to see a season that has promise for the future. Given the past few .500 seasons, a 7 or 8 win season is a success.Let's hope it becomes more evenly matched in the future.
The great season was just a mirage. The early part of our schedule was loaded with mediocre/bad teams. A good record early was a necessity to avoid an ugly year. As for the rest of the schedule, the rest of the games are pretty much toss ups. 7 or 8 wins is nothing to complain about from this group and 9 would be a really great year.
I hope these last two games end the myth that you can somehow "coach 'em up" and get elite results with pedestrian talent. It doesn't work that way. It never has and never will. We simply have to recruit better. A LOT BETTER.
Well I don't know how Louisville recruits but I watched a good portion of them dismantling Syracuse---something Pitt didn't do---and they can throw the ball which is never good for this defenseWe beat Miami last year in Miami with no more team speed than we have this year. And they weren't a team in as much disarray as they are this year.
And Louisville recruits worse than we do. We'll be favored in that game.
Why would I do that? Are people not allowed to have any negative opinions on here? It's comical sometimes, when I am criticizing the team I am branded too negative. When I am excited and say positive things after the nice start I am now bipolar lol.PITT will go 8 - 5 or 9 - 4 so OP will cry himself to sleep again

Seriously, to the board preachers on here(there are probably about 6-8 of you), allow people to express opinions good or bad and enjoy the lair. If you want stepford posters that only say "rah rah" stuff then go start your own board.
You take a couple wins against mediocre talent, in FB or hoops, and project us as much greater than we are. Then you get mad at the team for not meeting your crazy predictions, to the point of declaring us worse than we are. Then we beat someone, and we are great again. Every year, rinse and repeat. Why not try to be just a little more balanced, not write in all caps like a lunatic, and not call for coaches heads because of them not meeting some odd projection you assigned to the team based on goofy evaluations. You are more than welcome to have an opinion, but when you act all crazy, people will likely comment on that, and won't forget that you just declared a team great, then sucks, then great, then sucks. It appears demented to most.Why would I do that? Are people not allowed to have any negative opinions on here? It's comical sometimes, when I am criticizing the team I am branded too negative.

Seven different posters commented on you, from getting your head out of your ass, to being full of it. And It isn't just me, that's also part of your delusion. Seven people in this thread alone commented on it, yet you always single me out, even though this time I wasn't even the most critical.You seem to be the main one who comments on it. Regardless, I don't need to keep defending the way I post. No one is perfect and I think I contribute on here like most anyone else. For those who don't like it, sorry.
Shame a debby downer like you calls yourself a Pitt fan.Someday it has to change for Pitt. Hopefully with Narduzzi at the helm and if he doesn't leave it won't be much longer.
Yeah, real shame. Yawn.Shame a debby downer like you calls yourself a Pitt fan.
