- For those of you wanting to fire Pat Narduzzi, wake up. If you were to some how able to get Nick Saban or Urban Meyer to coach Pitt, the result would be no different. The players that those two normally get, would not even give Pitt an opportunity.
- Heather Lyke has FAILED to address the #1 issue that the Pitt football program and the Pitt athletic department faces...the lack of a home field. Those stupid yellow seats at heinz field makes the lack of fans attending each home game, a huge problem. There are no elite recruits that will want to commit to the Pitt program when the school itself, doesn't seem interested in making a commitment to the football program. Until she addresses this issue, in my opinion, she will have failed to do her job.
- The University of Pittsburgh might as well hire bob nutting to be the AD. They appear to have taken the same "small market approach" that the Pirates have taken. Spend a minimal amount of money to make it look to the public that you want to win, but never fully commit to do the things that will make the program successful.
- Heather Lyke and the ACC did a piss poor job of getting the ACCN up and running in the Pittsburgh area. Nothing should have been signed by any one until all of the ACC teams had an agreement in place to make certain the ACCN would be available to ALL of the local markets.
- I've actually had the "pleasure" to sit through a couple of coaching visits (my nephew is a pretty talented senior football player in the SW Pennsylvania area) and at each of the visits, the visiting coaches pointed out the lack of attendance at the home games.
- Lastly, Pat Narrduzzi, in my opinion, has done a nice job at Pitt. While he is not perfect, I do believe that he truly cares about the Pitt football program. I love the passion he has for the program and believe that he will achieve the success that we all would like to see the Pitt football if Heather Lyke gets off of her rear end and address the #1 issue.
