LETS GO PITT!

Props to PITT for getting to guys drafted so far.

Jeff Otah, 19th overall, 1st round.

Michael McGlynn, 109 overall, 4th round.

Cox, Clermond, Strong, all looking like walk ons at this point.

Well Cox went next to last, probably had a better chance walking on somewhere, but I guess if he can make any roster, the Bills roster should be the one.

3 guys drafted.

Great read for any PITT Fans out there:

"There's a quiet storm brewing at Pitt.
The convergence of yet another great recruiting class, the emergence of RB LeSean McCoy and last December's upset of second-ranked West Virginia has the Panthers entering 2008 with a head of steam and the realistic hopes of making a huge leap into Big East title contention. Yeah, you've heard this song before, but the program finally appears ready to make good on fourth-year head coach Dave Wannstedt's promise to get things back on the right track. This had better be the big season everyone has been expecting because the staff is running low on equity.

Since coming back home, Wannstedt has made good on his vow to raise the talent level at Pitt through intense recruiting. While he has brought in some fantastic classes, the improvement hasn't equaled success on the field for going just 16-19 over the last three years. If ever there was a crossroads season for a coaching staff, this is it."

i predict Pitt only sells out 1 game, the WVU game when their will be way more WVU fans than Pitt fans

Pitt will never win with Wannstedt, he is a born loser a real Munson

I guess that's why his team knocked the snot out of WVU last season and prevented them from going to the National Title game.

We'll see how the Big East shapes up with the 2nd best linebacker in the NCAA playing for the panthers and a passing attack to rival our running attack on offense.

Another 2009 commit, nice! Dave can recruit well, now he just needs to coach these kids up!

Any word on Hynoski @ FB? He's a local kid.

Wait 2 years, my school has an outstanding DE talent coming.... Flattened Hynoski 2 years ago as a Freshman!

That's I think has held you guys back in the past. Wanny's inability to develop these players and develop them right has caused Pitt to have seasons that EASILY could have not happened. But, consistently shooting yourself in the foot will NOT help one bit.

I hope at the end of this college season that "being a good recruiter does not make you a good coach ' comes forth as truth at Pitt.

Dave has to produce a solid winning season and reputable bowl invitation.. I sincerely wish him well because he does have talent .

[Dino 6 Rings]

Lots of talent at PITT and this is Dave's make or break year. There were quite a few close games last year that ended in tough losses, the OT attempt at 2 vs Navy for the win that failed and the fumbled ball at the Louisville 1 yard line going in for the tie, another tough loss. I like our talent and hopefully we can get things going this year to compete to take the Big East Title.
