Pitt the Commode.

Joe was 10-1 vs Pitt before sherrill 3-2 was shocking lol

I think Narduzzi deserves some credit for the defensive prospects, particularly the secondary. His scheme tends to allow DBs to become NFL ready by putting them on an island and forcing them to learn how to cover.

Aside from him, I’d give the most credit to our TE coach (good at identifying talent in the northeast) and DL coach (recruits Florida + develops DL prospects).

Don’t know why we are discussing Pitt, but Narduzzi does have some big upset wins. But he has way too many losses to very bad teams. As for the NFL, Pitt does have some very good players. But on 2022 53 man rosters at the start of the season, Pitt was 6th in the ACC with 17. Temple has 16. Their total is in the 30s which is right where they recruit for the most part. I think if Narduzzi was considered a good college coach, he would no longer be at Pitt.

Pitt doesn't get the talent Penn State gets. It's easier to get better players drafted. Let's be real.

So, he is good at developing players, but not recruiting them. Got it.

Yeah that might be fair. Though more so he's good at finding kids that aren't highly ranked that have potential because Pitt isn't beating Penn State, Ohio State, etc for top kids very often.

Just not the kind of guy majors want as the face of their program. Tastes his foot too often.

Just showing off his flexibility for an old guy…..🤷🏼‍♀️

Penn State would still be in the Big Ten

and you know that how Nostradamus? you don't but keep making sure you say the opposite of what anyone posts based on zero facts.

I'd insert a Marv Albert joke here, but, as you quite accurately depict, we're talking about his own foot.

I think a school like Rutgers should make a pitch for him. They cant seem to do anything unless Schiano is there and he's not exactly having much success his 2nd go around either.

It was never happening for long anyway. The old eastern football conference would have fared similar to the Big 12, IMO. It got dissolved because none of the good football schools liked each other. Same situation in the northeast.

You sure Sherrill was 3-2 vs Penn State. I don't believe so. No Pitt coach since the '60s that I know of had a winning record against Penn State. .500 maybe, but none with a winning record.

Handonhiscommando is very stupid like NJ.

And he wouldn’t have had any success the first time if they weren’t in a garbage conference.

What do you think this has to do with beating Ohio State in recruiting?

 

[Cincinnati Kid]

You sure Sherrill was 3-2 vs Penn State. I don't believe so. No Pitt coach since the '60s that I know of had a winning record against Penn State. .500 maybe, but none with a winning record.

Sherrill was 2-5 against Paterno.
