Pitt--what about their recruits?

After a week of drama here, can you imagine being a Pitt fan? First, no assistants (actually three leave for Arizona), and then the head coach leaves for Arizona State. I am surprised someone hasn't pointed out the obvious that we had several offers out to their verbals. I sure wouldn't want to be a recruit or the AD--three head coaches in 14 months and having to drop down to a position coach for the bowl game.

The Davis twins come to mind. We were in on them early.

We might be full at their positions now--what about some offensive lineman?

Hopefully you will still be saying this next week. (about being full at their position)

I'd be OK with that. Pitt has a history of some very strong offensive lines.

Based on some of the comments of their recruits they are waiting to see who the new coach is and what his O/D schemes will be. I sure would like to pick up a few 'bigs' for our line. Also any WRs that may need a new home.

GO PONIES!!!

Do not forget that Penn State is in the same position. No head coach, recruits decommiting, Urban Meyer poaching PSU recruits, recruits tired of being questioned why they would stay committed, football staff totally up in the air as to whether or not they will be retained, Board of Trustees want a totally new staff without PSU connections for a clean slate new start, alums want PSU connected HC to continue traditions and legacy, incompetent search committee comprised of 6 persons 4 of whom are gals without any football or athletic backgrounds and 2 males have no football backgrounds and the only reprieve for delayed HC search is the media attention now on Pitt. Wonderful to be in PA as a PSU or Pitt fan. JJ situation at SMU pales compared to these 2 nightmares.
