It shows a big commitment to Narduzzi in that he basically gets to pick his boss......and that's the way it should be as he is Pitt's most important (and highest paid) employee.

Hopefully they can find an AD who has a relationship with a good basketball coach since he may need to make a hire after this season or next.

not as smart as having John Pelusi for a number of reasons

Not the least of which is Narduzzi wont be hear in 5 years.

Agree on Pelusi. As for Narduzzi, I would think most major D1 coaches wont be at their current job 5 years from now. That's how this business work. Our new AD probably wont be either.
 
they need a bigger committee. Maybe if they expand the committee to say, 50-60, there will actually be someone on the committee who understand what an AD is supposed to do. In the last half century these committee selections have yielded Bozik, Jaynes, Petersen twice and Barnes....yea, this committee approach has worked splendidly.
 
Big Ben for AD when he retires!!!!
You know he'd probably be a better AD than QB. His constant companion, the boot he sports around at all times on one of his big clown feet, would prove less of an impediment.
 
If the AD title keeps narduzzi here for life, give it to him. He sells Pitt athletics more than anyone else has here in decades. I don't think they'll even consider that this early in his coaching career, but they need to worry about what will keep him here more than anything else.

It was pretty cool to see him do what he did to try and get people to the basketball game and then get the Zoo fired up.

Exactly what I mean. Who else in the university could even think of anything to remotely get anyone excited about Pitt hoops right now? That's what your ad or basketball coach should be doing. Obviously he's not gonna coach football and basketball so....
