I think Pitt is missin' the Wannstache now

They were 10-3 in 2009 with the three losses by a combined 11 points. It was a really dumb decision to fire him in 2010.

Cincinnati has some serious speed on their squad this year. They should kick some but in the Big lEast

Pitt will be much better vs Cinn Thursday night

Ahahah screw ya Mark May

What he really meant to say was: Pitt will be much better than a bad high school team but maybe not as good as Savannah State vs Cinn Thursday night

 

[Bucklion]

Jesus this team is fucking awful. Sunseri may be the one QB who has gotten exponentially worse during every year of his entire tenure. He is so horrible now it isn't even funny.

 

[BUCK3YE5]

Hahaha suck it Mark May

 

[ShowMeBuck]

Dorian can do so much better than this. Winning is a lot more fun.

Looks like they've been shining with Petey-Shine....

I have no sympathy for them. They thankfully took Petey off the market.

Pitt followed the Minnesota model for football success...

The one day the Reds don't play and I still have to see Drew Stubbs

I was about to say the same thing. Pitt firing Wanstadt is in the same league as Minny firing Mason.

I was about to say the same thing. Pitt firing Wanstadt is in the same league as Minny firing Mason.

And Illinois firing Tim Beckman. Oh wait, that hasn't happened yet (unless he gets out of there first with a promotion).

My projected career trajectory for Beckman goes something like this: 6-7, 8-5, 9-4, 10-3, 7-5, 6-6 fired.

Say what you will about Zook, but he did about the best that anyone is going to do at Illinois. He took them to a Rose Bowl after all, which was only the second they'd been to one in nearly fifty years.

It's the cycle of mediocre teams reaching their ceiling under a good coach, not realizing its their ceiling, hiring a new coach to try to break through that ceiling and starting all over again.

Pitt, Illinois, Minnesota and I'm sure a few others are prime examples.

Yeah, both schools thought that they could do better, and they were wrong.

Wow did Pitt suck last night! I wonder if Mark May drove off a bridge after that massacre?
