This kid decided to be sit the bench behind Omer Yurtseven on a team with 2 other Centers in his own class rather than play 30 MPG here at Pitt.
Samuels
Akok
Cockburn
Lawrence
Wahab
Coulibaly (going to Tulane apparently)
Chase Johnson
Capel cant get anybody to play Center for him. Guys, there are some red flags whether you want to admit it or not. Lets be real here.
I was thinking the same thing! Something up over in Oakland.... maybe they don’t think Capel going to be there that long.This kid decided to be sit the bench behind Omer Yurtseven on a team with 2 other Centers in his own class rather than play 30 MPG here at Pitt.

Good luck to the young man, hope his mom made the right choice for him.
Let’s see - Howland, Dixon, Stallings, and now Capel all struggled to win recruiting battles. The red flag is PITT. It is difficult to recruit here. It just shows how stupid this fanbase was for getting angry with Dixon even though he won 25 games a year on average.This kid decided to be sit the bench behind Omer Yurtseven on a team with 2 other Centers in his own class rather than play 30 MPG here at Pitt.

This isnt really fair. Howland won the Big East and went to the Sweet 16 in his third year. And I know everyone is antsy, but Capel hasnt even been here 1 full year. He was hired around March 30th last year. And Pitt was coming off the worst season in acc history last year. Id also throw in Capel landed two 4 star last year and neither one of them was Xavier Johnson. Just my thought, but I think slater maybe is trolling Pitt and maybe Corey Evans with Wahab, maybe. Lets see if Slater changes that Coulibaly pick at the last hour from Tulane. I bet he does.Let’s see - Howland, Dixon, Stallings, and now Capel all struggled to win recruiting battles.

If Pitt wants to land big-time recruits, then they have 2 options. 1) Provide elite facilities for the players. Dorms, Practice Facilities, etc. and/or 2) Play the $ame Recruiting Game the Big Boys PlayCapel has been playing catch up in nearly all recruits, which take years to establish. He will secure re-classifications and grad transfers for this year. He got talent to come to an 0-19 team and will do the same this year. After April, then scream the sky is falling. Maybe these kids did not want to go to the ACC. Maybe they want to play against lesser competition to look better. Saying it is "PITT" shows recruits that the fan base has a loser mentality and doesn't even appreciate what we have to offer. PITT is and will always have IT! H2P!!! Brown is a stud and next up. Go high or go home.
I like Capel but let’s stop making excuses for him. Chris Mack was hired at the same time he was and they have one of the top recruiting classes in the country coming in next year.Capel has been playing catch up in nearly all recruits, which takes years.

Louisville has elite facilities and play$ the recruiting game. Pitt would rather keep company with the Boston College’s of the world.I like Capel but let’s stop making excuses for him.

A highly rated center prospect chooses to play for Patrick Ewing. There's nothing weird about that. Omer Yurtseven isn't much of a factor, he'll be there for one year and then he'll go pro (he has 2 years of eligibility, but I'd be astonished if he uses them both). Wahab might be making a mistake - it's entirely possible that coming to Pitt, getting a lot of PT as a freshman and having the opportunity to learn from Tim O'Toole would do more for his game, but Patrick Ewing is Patrick Ewing. It sucks, it's a bummer, but the sky is not falling.
No one needs to make excuses for Capel. You can't judge a recruiting class until its assembled.I like Capel but let’s stop making excuses for him. Chris Mack was hired at the same time he was and they have one of the top recruiting classes in the country coming in next year.
Dixon was a colossal failure his last 2 years and choke in the 3rd year prior to his exodus!Let’s see - Howland, Dixon, Stallings, and now Capel all struggled to win recruiting battles.

No...colossal failure is what occurred under Stallings. Dixon made 2 NCAA’s and an NIT during his 3 years in the ACC. We would be thrilled with that right now.Dixon was a colossal failure his last 2 years and choke in the 3rd year prior to his exodus!

The correct answer, of course.we don't pay..others do...
That wouldn't have continued with him much longer either. The recruiting was getting worse each year.No...colossal failure is what occurred under Stallings. Dixon made 2 NCAA’s and an NIT during his 3 years in the ACC. We would be thrilled with that right now.

Football is that way too.
It shouldn't be. Why is it?
