Interview today with Kenny Johnson. Instant fan of this kid. The last three weeks have been largely disappointing, but I'm really looking forward to watching him over the next few years.

I actually appreciate the Narduzzi feels its up to the kid to determine if they disclose the injury or not.

I didn't realize he did this. It definitely changes my perception of how he handles these things.

You say that as if Phil is definitely out??? Got ahead of myself a little. I forgot Duzz said Phil wasn't in concussion protocol after the UNC game, so he'll start if he's healthy. Narduzzi did mention in his press conference yesterday that Yarnell will be ready to play against VT as well, so maybe...

Pitt favored by 2 on the road against a forlorn Hokies squad. At least I’ll be able to golf in the afternoon VT's defense absolutely stinks against the run (122nd out of 130 teams) . Ideally that plays right into Pitt's hands, but I don't trust Cignetti to develop or stick with a cohesive gameplan ...

Goncalves out for the season, per Narduzzi's press conference. Welcome to the starting lineup, Ryan Baer. Please don't get hurt.

Oh, you guys are complaining about Jurkovec getting knocked out? Not so much complaining about Jurkovec being knocked out as I am complaining that it was a stupid call which put his QB at unnecessary risk, especially given the context of the situation. It was a designed QB run on 3rd down with less...

The last drive of the first half was one of the least organized series of events I’ve witnessed at a Pitt Football game Bostick was losing his mind in the booth during this. Getting the ball back with a minute left and knowing UNC is getting the ball, there was absolutely no plan. No attempt to pus...

Things of interest for this game How bad will pine richlands most wanted be? Will the dl generate sacks against a passing team Will the old people on both lines fail Will the safeties be any good Will I play good golf Sunday morning due to this late start? On the DL, I'd love to know where FitzSimm...

Kamara out tonight and is in a walking boot.

Also Noah Hiles reports that Terrance Moore is starting at center and Ryan Baer at one of the tackles. Guessing Moore is playing center because Kradel is moving to guard because everyone else there sucks, but we’ll see.

Rodney Hammond was hurt? That's been the line coming from the coaches this week. The initial perception was that he wasn't used much against Wofford because they didn't need him, and then he was limited against Cincy because they were playing from behind the entire game. Even against WVU, he had se...

Love to have the excitement level for the season reduced to a wet fart three stupid games into the season because the head coach couldn't stomach an offense that could score points and had to offset 2021 with a Wannyball retread. But hey, Rodney Hammond is finally healthy. We'll see how long that la...

Guys I'm gonna say it. He's worse than Tino. Worst QB I've seen at Pitt in my life Last week was as bad as Kenny vs Clemson in the acc championship. I think these back to back performances are unprecedented In that ACC title game, at least you argue that Pickett was just a sophomore in his first fu...

BJ Williams didn’t make the trip and is reportedly injured. Not sure how bad the injury is. Not sure what the starting OL looks like. Jim Hammett at Panther Lair also noted that ten true freshmen made the trip: RB Montravius Lloyd WR Kenny Johnson WR Israel Polk WR Zion Fowler-El WR Lamar Seymour DT...

Brawl Eve thoughts. Hail to Pitt, I guess, right? 1. David Hale posted the following on Twitter the other day: "% of dropbacks under pressure for Phil Jurkovec - 2022 at BC: 45.5%, 2023 at Pitt: 49.2%". For context on that, BC was considered last year to have one of the worst OLs in college football...

OK, that's funny.

I didn't realize that Jason Collier struggled so much against Wofford that he was removed from the starting lineup against Cincy and is now listed as a second stringer at LG. Way too many upper classmen, who should've spent spent the past 3+ years getting coached up, for the line to be this even wi...

At DLR, there are three entrances to Galaxy's Edge/Batuu. But at DHS there are only two..... with a third access point coming directly from Starcruiser (I think via an underground shuttle). There hasn't been any announcement made what will become of that property. It's across Cast Member parking; i...

As far as cignetti goes, I’ll make my same complaint I always do: Turn on any random college game and you’ll see guys running around wide open. It could be MACtion or the SEC or anything on between and guys are in open spots for easy to complete balls. Yet you watch Pitt and it seems like no one is...

Still trying to figure out what the hell I watched on Saturday night. This was their first real test and just about every potential "worst-case" scenario that could derail this season came to light. QB would be better this year because Jurkovec can't possibly be worse than Slovis, right? No, he's wo...

Some thoughts on the opener... 1. 38 point win, game was never in doubt, no one got hurt, and they were able to get a bunch of kids on the field. That's about everything you can hope for with a game like this. I don't hate these games. It's not a big "draw" game and it's even more the case because t...

Notes and depth chart thoughts... 1. OL - Narduzzi just announced that despite Ryan Jacoby being listed as a starter, he is out for the year and Jason Collier will start at LG. Narduzzi said they listed Jacoby because he played so well in practice up until the injury. Maybe he was the mystery "out f...

We have a depth chart for Wofford:

I know this sounds provincial but I’d really like to see this year be a breakout season for all of the WPIAL players. Im hoping Fitzsimmons is a four year stalwart on the DL, Hayes takes a step forward to a true force to be reckoned with, and Davis/the dude from peters find roles to play. Chris pea...

Some stuff as camp is winding down... INJURIES Narduzzi made mention the other day of a season-ending injury. That's expected to be DB Rashad Battle. I forget the timeline, but he was injured early on or about halfway through the 2022 season and ended up missing the year. Apparently in one of the mo...
