Here is this morning’s media recap for the day:
Post-Gazette:
Woodland Hills alumni continue football careers together at Pitt There’s a reason “Woody High” carries that type of weight in the community. At the Wolvarena, there’s a wall with every Woodland Hills standout who ever played Division I football — including NFL stars Steve Breaston and Jason Taylor, and former Pitt players such as Lousaka Polite and Shawntae Spencer.
“It’s just like a pipeline,” Price said. “Being with these guys is the reason I came here, just to be with family and the people I know.”
Pitt Football Chat Transcript: 11.12.15 Here is my favorite Q&A of all time. Carey Z: Who is Pitt’s next verbal commitment? Sam Werner: You.
Trib Review:
Conner Not Ready to Return Duh!
Rowell Maps out Pitt’s Agenda “Players meetings are for bad teams,” he said. “To get up in front of a players’ meeting and start shouting stuff is a distraction.” He has what he believes is a better solution: “Everybody needs to do their job.” Someone get that man a mirror.
Pitt cornerback Maddox will face another tough test against Duke “It’s a challenge. It’s fun,” he said. “That’s how you want to get to the pros. You have to play against the top guys.” Fuller victimized Maddox on two of his three touchdown receptions, but Narduzzi said self-assuredly, “I wouldn’t change a thing.” You haven’t in nine games so why start now Pat?
ESPN:
Matt Galambos Finds inspiration. But misses the ball carrier again.
More Jordan Whitehead… and cowbell, everyone needs more cowbell.
The Pitt News
Chaney’s not the only guy people are mad at. Other’s have it worse.
Here’s four articles. Have fun.
Pittsburgh City Paper (Holy Hell!)
Feels good to root for Pitt again.
We’ll try one every day or two but don’t bank on it…
Give Ollison some carries and split the rest between James and Hall. Those three have talent but nobody there has claimed the job…Ollison looks good but not great, James is quick but doesn’t seem to run to daylight, and Hall looks pretty unsure out there so far. Maybe all get better next year but gotta win now baby, give the rock to Whitehead and let him bust loose on Duke. 35-17 Pitt. HTP!!
Need one of the running backs to have a huge day tomorrow.
Also to hit their QB hard and often, whoever he is.
Kept my eye on him all game last week. He truly is superhuman.
Pretty amazing considering he is on his third QB, third position coach and 2nd head coach.
I wouldn’t judge the bigs too harshly after tonight. I know they’re vets – but the Zags have the biggest, and according to Bilas, one of the best front courts in the country.
I think all the bigs are in for a long night. Gotta try to transition them right out of the gym.
Bless us all.
rkb — I really liked Amara last year and figured he’d start anyway, alongside Mitchell, and they’d put Whitehead at cornerback…shows what I know huh? But Webb, Pitts, and Amara are all pretty talented and given how our offense is struggling to score points vs better teams, I think we have to put him on O and let him loose, and keep rotating our other DBs till we find a good combo. Maybe put Pitts as a nickel and give Lewis or Briggs a start at CB, or play all three safeties for help?
