Coach Dave Wannstedt and Joe Paterno were in the same room together with the media present. Naturally nothing was said of any consequence with relation to Pitt, PSU or Big Something expansion. It was pure Sgt. Schultz.
“There are a lot of rumors out there as far as I’m concerned,” he said. “I don’t have any comment on that. That is for the chancellor [Mark Nordenberg] and the higher ups to discuss.”
Not surprising that there was nothing said. The coaches were there out of pure self-interest to promote spring practices for high school football. Have the kids focus more on the sport that football coaches want them to play and not take notice of other sports. Not to mention put more wear, contact and abuse on their bodies earlier. Just like they do in Texas, Florida, and other states that are football first.
