13/24 for 223 and 2 tds.

I mean it's better than Phil. No doubt. But let's pump the brakes on "torching" cincy. Pretty pedestrian numbers. That said, in defense of slovis, his team won while we lost to that crappy team.

Slovis > Jurkovec. And Pitt’s record is likely better if Slovis stays - said it last week. But Slovis is still pedestrian at best so calm down.

1240 yards, 10 tds, 3 ints, abd 3 rushing tds in 5 games.

A huge portion of this board spent all last year blaming everything on Slovis to deflect blame away from cignetti and pat.

Simply put if Slovis was used like this last year we win 10+ games. He also has zero run game at byu so that makes it honestly look better what he is doing.

I think they are shining up the Heisman trophy for him now as I type...

Not the point! Nice try though.

I figured some of you would have problems admitting that he wasn’t the problem last year

Last year is not this year and Pitt is not BYU. ...Can't be him, hat to be others even though he is at his third school in three years.......Here's a novel concept, both Cignetti and Sloivs can suck at the same time..As far as I can tell Cignetti did not run like a sloth when pressured out of the pocket nor lose his confidence for a season when he got whacked about in the Tennessee game...

Lol. Slovis isn’t a great qb, but he is not awful like last year. Place the blame where it belongs

Blame belongs with Pitt...Cignetti and Jurkovec lit it up at BC. Kid threw for 300+ his first five games ..Slovis is "torching" teams to the tune of 13/24 for 223 at BYU. Gotta be just Pitt.

Care to list Cignettis stats the last two years at Pitt?

I’m not defending this staff. Hell it seems that Jurkovec has gotten worse since coming to Pitt. But Slovis is still pedestrian.
 
Slovis isn't very good, and he was part of the problem last year. BYU runs a completely different offense.

And that still doesn't mean that he isn't better than Jurkovec and Cignetti doesn't suck. All those things can exist as simultaneous truths. If we bring Cignetti back next year then Pat will have reached a point of stubbornness that will very likely spell his demise.

Slovis is not good. That one long pass he threw where he side stepped the defender in threw was a horrible pass that should have been picked.
 
Slovis and Jurkovec probably both came to Pitt under the impression they'd be playing with better offensive talent around them than ended up being the case.

Slovis transferred in at a time when it looked like he would have have Jordan Addison to throw to and would be a drop in replacement for Kenny Pickett coming off an ACC championship.

What he got instead is an offensive that regressed in offensive line play from the previous year and had Jared Wayne as the top target with average to below average receiver options after that. Fortunately, Wayne played very well, but was still a far cry from what an offense with Addison as option 1 and Wayne as option 2 could have been.

Jurkovec came in with the same receivers Slovis had minus Wayne; with nobody to date stepping up to be a clear number 1 option; and what looked like would be an experienced OLine that would be as good or better than what Slovis had last year.

Fast Forward to 4 weeks into the season and with two would be OLine starters out for the year; OLine play thus far has been flat out bad. In Jurkovec's case he was probably leaning heavily enough on his past success with Cignetti and assumed offensive talent at Pitt would at least as good as what he had at BC; especially with Pitt coming off of back to back 9+ win seasons.

In the end both transfers walked into situations that were far less ideal then what they likely anticipated and the Pitt coaching staff was probably hoping to an unreasonable degree that high level quarterback play was going to hide other deficiencies on offense.

In hindsight, the fact that Slovis chose to take his ball and go elsewhere when he would have been the presumed starter had he stayed should have been taken as more of a harbinger of what's to come than it was.

Really want to see Pitt turn it around on offense, but for that to happen IMO it feels like there needs to be some underclassman talent on the roster that is better than what we've seen to date and can step up and start playing at higher level now. Whether or not Pitt has such talent on the roster I have no idea.

If Slovis stays concussion (and otherwise injury) free, he’ll be a solid QB for BYU this year.

If he hadn’t been concussed here vs TN last season, he may have had a solid season here in 2022 as well.

Slovis has had an injury plagued career. Concussions and arm related mostly. Maybe Kedon’s luck will change and he’ll stay completely healthy this season?

PJ had no previous success with FCJ.

He transferred here because he had no other choice.

Underclassmen should be winning some starting jobs. Kenny Johnson is easily the most talented receiver we have. He should be starting and playing a ton. It is time to replace these transfer stiffs.

True, if Cignetti was here in 2021, Kenny probably would have had 12 TDs and 10 ints and become a 7th round draft pick, he was awesome that year because with Whipple he had a proper playbook, proper play calls and less running the ball. 7 on 7 is where it's at kids wanna have fun tossing the ball around the yard and doing embarrassing celebration dances after multiple TDs per game, not the 1970s stuff we see at Pitt today. Thats what the top talents want to do, have fun, lots of on field dancing to post on Instagram.

I watched some of that game out of morbid curiosity before I hit the sack last night.

Slovis had solid protection and looked composed, smooth and comfortable operating that offense. He spins a nice ball, made some nice looking downfield throws, and was accurate and efficient. BYU runs some nice simple route combos that are very effective at getting the primary guy open.

I’m just gonna say it, it wasn’t a Slovis problem and probably isn’t even so much a Jurk problem. It’s a Pitt problem.

Now we have two QBs who have looked their worst playing in Cignetti's system. And both have played for three programs. How much more evidence do people need? I'd rather have Cavanaugh back, and he sucked too.
