Why wouldn't Pitt cancel the Spring Game?

Nebraska was the first big school to cancel that I noticed. Their coach is concerned about tampering prior to the spring transfer window. Playing the game could display some talented players nobody knows about. I think he has a point.
The kids at most schools all have access to their spring ball practices. On top of that, these schools who are looking to poach players already know who they want.
 
19 power 4 schools have canceled. We have better ways to spend our money and time.

This. This is the point everyone has missed in this thread. It’s not financial for Pitt and certainly not for some bigger schools. Coaches don’t want players exposed with the upcoming portal window. Duzz has dismissed the concern unlike other coaches.
 
So you will be there ?
Almost certainly. I’ve been to about 8 of the past 10. Only ones I’ve missed have been due to kids sports schedules. As of right now, my senior baseball player doesn’t have a game scheduled, so only way I’ll miss it is if we get a rain out earlier in the week and a reschedule. I’ll see you there.

Won’t see me
I wouldn’t watch a practice of it was next door
 
Bitch if they have it and bitch if they don't. What's the big deal? The costs is nothing.

If I can go I will. Not planning my schedule around it, but I'll take in some spring football if I can.

Stay home if you don't care.

Okay, no one cares. You go see it or you dont. Its a petty and stupid thing to be talking about on a Pitt message board. Some like going to it, some dont. But dont be on her yapping with your chest out, how Pitt shouldnt have it, because some like you dont go, and for the title of this discussion, because other schools arent.

It gets harder and harder to come on these boards, just to idiotic posts about how bad, poor (financially), non-competitive, poorly ran, etc Pitt is. For the better of everyone else, if some of you hate Pitt, wont contribute, think they suck or even move down to D3 or something stupid as that. Stay off the damn board and dont watch Pitt. No one gives a shit. We we still root for Pitt regardless. And for the ones who keep saying that those people are crazy for rooting for Piit. You are not very bright to keep posting and talking about a team you keep disrepecting.

But you’re bright for continuing to come here when it’s getting harder and harder. Got it.

seems like a strange thing to be proud of on a fan forum but if you would rather spend a Saturday afternoon doing yard work who am I to argue
Proud of what ?
If a person is deriving pride from attending a practice -
It’s more indicative of them, than me

Yard work is actually a productive use of time .
 
Pitt can't win with some of you guys. No matter what they do.

The spring "game" is a very inexpensive good will effort for those who want to attend. Lots of fun for kids, and a chance for fans to connect with the program.

Who cares if other programs are cancelling spring games?

If you want to attend, then great. It's good that Pitt is trying to connect with fans.

If you don't want to go, you have that option, too.

Pitt can't win either way, and I think that's what some of you like.
 
Other college teams have film on the players and they would know who they want to go after. We meet on the North shore get lunch and a beer then go watch the spring game. Have been doing it for years.
