[NITTANYJGK]

[BobPSU92]

We’re screwed. 😞

His finalists were Pitt, Illinois, Virginia, Kentucky. Draw your own conclusions.

pitt's first 4 star in a long time bounced them all the way up to #44 in the Rivals ratings. Just above NC State but behind Duke and Marshall. Narducci's wonderful personality is starting to pay off.

He'll be lonely as the only 4 star at Pitt, but it will prepare him for the loneliness at Heinz Field for Pitt games.

At least he can claim a free beverage if he stays until the end of the games.

Why these posters need to keep bringing up PITT is beyond me?????

It's so hard to compete with all those empty, yellow seats on Saturday afternoons!

How many P5 schools are there in PA? Hmm…I wonder.

That's probably all his NIL will be worth

Until the end of the period before he has to actually sign his LOI?

So what. The Pirates still signed more 4 stars in the June draft that Nardhouche has at Pitt so far this recruiting cycle/

 

[CattyGuy51]

I guess that there’s a reason I should care but I can’t think of any.🤷🏻‍♂️

 

[MJG-90]

Geez. This thread is sad. A bunch of Napoleons trying to feel better by mocking our used to be rival.

 

[The Spin Meister]

Saw the title and thought they decided to supersize the free drink at the end of the game.....🤷🏽

Glad to see Pitt still lives rent free in your head as you pretend to not care about Pitt…..yet still post about Pitt.

Ryan Baer is a good ball player. I wouldn’t mind having him at dear old state.

He has an offer from Kentucky. They do pretty well with OL recently.

I read the title of the thread and thought that they got a new Domino's near campus that could employ more students...or graduates.

This is what we’re up against.

We can rip on Pitt all we want, but that’s a big boy donation that will help their program - especially the head coach endowment, which they might need if they end up looking for one this winter.

IIRC, Pitt is on the hook for Narduzzi through the 2024 season. The endowment would certainly ease the financial burden if they move on to another coach. But for some reason Pitt thinks Dooz and his five loss seasons are awesome so it's anyone's guess what will happen.

I've also read Pitt's AD may be kicking the tires on other jobs. She seems to be a Dooz fan. If she leaves maybe a new football HC will follow. I'd personally love to see Dooz stay at Pitt for awhile.

A little off-topic, but is the AD pleased with Capel as basketball coach, or looking at changes?

Program seemed to be improving, but then they lost a ton of talent to transfers and had off-court incidents.

Unless this endowment is run differently than most by ASWP, it generates about $1mm p.a. once it's fully funded.

An endowment was established in 2007 for PSU's head coaching position. Initial funding was $5mm. Can't say whether it's been augmented over time.

The AD hired Capel and inherited Narduzzi, and I think she likes Capel better, especially considering the rebuilds both coaches inherited. IMO their basketball team will be better than football this year, largely because Capel is a better coach than Narduzzi is.
