I respect his decision. There isnt anything more to say. Im not the coach, Jeff Capel is.

I don’t blame him. None of us can.

Next year could be worse somehow.

Hate to say it but , unless Pitt gets down and dirty there’s no way out this .

This is more or less in good fun, and I do appreciate Vader’s insight. I do.

The biggest problems right now are Capel, and the extension+buyout given by our AD.

I do think he’s probably gone after this year. They’ll find a way.

I can only speak for myself. I’m not angry about it nor am I angry at Vader. Never was. But I’ve thought from day 1 a lot of his posts were laced with BS.

Oladapo has two years here. He can slide into the 4. I think Burton will stay too.

Why wait? I know the seasons just kicking off but would it be best to hire someone and let them get started?

And maybe the timing wouldn’t be good. I don’t know and it’s a genuine question.

Who cares knock down the Pete and build a football stadium
It’s be cheaper than buying out hoops coaches every 4 years

More like updating the screenname. Steel Curtain, Vadar Storm....what is next, Iron Gates?

I know everyone likes to dump on Vader, but you should have added another poster name in your title if you felt the need to go down this road.

Clearly Mintz realized that Pitt is a lousy choice for him and its not. The re-rebuild can only start after Capel is gone. He knows it, you know it and Lyke knows if but won't do anything about it. She needs pressured. Maybe the Zoo will boycott the games just as most everyone else has. A stream of attendance numbers below 500 might get her attention. I doubt it though, she only cares about getting your money.

He changed his mind because the big boys started calling and with the big boys there’s benefits . If you don’t think NIL money isn’t involved in this change of heart your wrong .

It doesn’t matter the reason. Capel brings nothing to the table. He is all talk. This program is an embarrassment on and off the field under his watch.

The real question is are his hands being tied by university officials ?

It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand what’s going on in D1 ball .

So now we are blaming University officials for Hugley stealing a car, Horton punching a cop, players banging a teammates girlfriend, no player development, no team chemistry, no semblance of team offense or defense, no shooters, no toughness, hiring a terrible staff, nepotism, etc. etc.

It’s always someone else is paying him with certain posters. WHY DO WE RECRUIT PLAYERS WHO WANT PAID IF WERE NOT GOING TO!

Being rated around 100 wasn’t attracting the big boys interest . If he’s all that‘s being said he’s got a lot better suitors .

When you can date the cheerleaders the girl next door gets left out in the cold .

The best thing about this thread is realizing that it would be 4 times as large if I had not ignored the majority of posters.

Where did you learn reading comprehension at ?

Pitts in everyone top 10 , top 5 etc , but these kids choose other schools . Getting these kids money is now doable , but like I asked are his hands being tied by the university ?

Blaming a coach for a kid doing something stupid is directing the blame away from were it should be placed . On the player . Toneys indiscretion , Hugley and Horton are all 100% on them .

It‘s a lot easier to teach and develop kids with the necessary talent to play at this level .

Where he’s failed is in being able to bring in the right players so the question is and read this carefully, is his hands being tied by the university? If not then he’s the wrong man for the job .

Right ... and it shouldn't, not after one game. It would look almost silly. But if things are as bad in late January early Feb as we think they might be, that wouldn't be too soon in my opinion.

These things take care of themselves. After 24 games, if our team is something like 6-18 and 0-13 in the ACC, it's a much easier move to make. And up until that point, Heather will have had time to line up possible donors for the buyout and work some back channels of who might be interested.

That makes sense. Please refrain in the future.

Let's throw Tomlin in the possibilities. I love his rants.
Everyone OK?

I’m not saying I want that to happen, but I think he would get first run over your hypothetical Morgan St transfer

If Heather isn’t already making a list and contacting people through back channels it’s malpractice

[iMissTheOldDayss]

I’m just now seeing that Mintz is no longer coming here (who could’ve guessed!?) … HOWEVER…weren’t there certain posters yesterday clamoring how they knew that the bad losses don’t matter, the progress means nothing to Judah Mintz, he knew full well he was walking into a mess and he was gonna be JEFF CAPELS SAVIOR! That he was 100% coming here no matter what! What happened guys?

 

[Protes]

Good thing Capel stuck it to Jalen Hood-Schifino knowing he had Mintz in the bag. 😕 What a dumpster fire!

 

[ECUPittfan]

So did mintz cost us schifino?
