Panther Club members and football season ticket holders should have received/will shortly be receiving an invitation through the mail. The invitation is for a “National Letter of Intent Event”:

Join the Pitt coaches as they provide exclusive insight into those football student-athletes who signed binding letters of intent to attend Pitt earlier that day and show video highlights from each student-athlete’s high school career.

When: Wednesday, February 6th

Time: 6:00 PM, Doors open at 5:00 PM

Location: Heinz Field, East Club Lounge

I’m contemplating whether to go or not. On the one hand, it might be interesting to hear what the coaches have to say about these guys. On the other hand, I just don’t know if it’s really worth it to drive down to Heinz Field, especially if it’s not really all that exciting and they don’t tell us anything we don’t already know.

You’re allowed to take yourself and a guest, but you must provide your guest’s name so that Pitt can be assured no NCAA rules. Anyone out there (who is not a family member of a recruit, not in grades 9-12, and not a high school or JuCo coach) that wants to accompany me? Right.

Ironically (If I’m seeing this correctly), there is a picture on this invitation of Paul Rhoads speaking at a previous event. It’s safe to say he won’t be there this year.





Stinks that students cant go. Last year they invited students when it was at the pete and I enjoyed it…. oh well…

I’ve gone to the previous 2 and really enjoyed them. The coaches who recruited the player talked about their recruitment and what their take on the player is. They also show highlights of the player while they speak.

Actually it sounds like fun – and you’ll be able to get Terrell Pryor’s autograph.

Normally, when one of your coaches gets a “promotion,” you are sad to see him go. It should be a sign to Auburn that not one fan and not one city newspaper was upset. I do not think that there was one person who believed he was doing a good job.

As for Sunseri coaching on his sons team, the offense and the defense are entirely seperate. I do not think their would be any complications. Let the better man get the job.

Today’s PG has a pretty thorough enumeration of potential candidates to take over at DC. The one that struck me as particularly humorous was the possibility of rehiring Ball since one of the reasons he left us for WSU was that he was looking for a promotion to DC.

What in the hell was that last post?

Anyways, if there’s free booze, I’ll be your “date” Dennis!

it sounds like it would be a great event, esp this year with all the great recruits and the stories. I would love to go and have to fly up there for a meeting on the 6th near Olean NY. But i dropped a lot of memberships after Katrina kicked us out of New Orleans to Jackson MS. i would join Panther Club again to be able to go but it is prbably too late. Anybody going that could list me as guest?
