I really cannot wait for this. The multiplayer stuff that I saw in the beta was incredible, but I can't wait for the campaign.

As a Pitt fan, subscribing to Panther Lair is both one of the best and one of the worst things I've ever done.

My god, the lunacy of some of the posts.

I think Rick was the first to go, unless he came back. I'm 99.9% that Derek has no involvement in it whatsoever. Adam may have still been involved a little bit last season but I think he's completely done now, too. Rick has been done with it for a few years now. I think Rick stopped writing around ...

Still, when you consider what those places can offer versus what Pitt can just in terms of current gameday experiences, it makes that hill even tougher to climb. To land a potential program-changing QB from your own backyard, you're basically left selling the ideas of staying home, playing in front...

Also puts Pitt's QB depth (strictly from a numbers standpoint) back into question. Browne will be gone, DiNucci may get pissed enough to transfer, Pickett will either start or be #2, TMac apparently has no future at the position, Nick Patti is incoming and of questionable abilities.

Pitt was really competitive into the fourth quarter...what happened towards the end? They also dominated time of possession it looks like. The offense just isn't good enough to sustain and finish drives. This is the worst Pitt offense I've seen since 2007. That was the year Stull got injured in the...

I would characterize the news that the Nard Dog has a "plan" to use Pickett this weekend encouraging. They need to get a good grip on who is the starter next year and get off to the right start against the Albany Great Danes and the UPS Neds. I feel horrible for Browne because I hate seeing a playe...

Peak says on PL that he spoke to Narduzzi about the QB situation. Narduzzi says there is "a plan" for Pickett on Saturday vs. NC State but he won't elaborate on it. Also, safety Phil Campbell has been practicing with the RBs this week, but it sounds like that was a numbers-game move (with Moss being...

Kind of interesting...The injury report came out today for the Syracuse game and listed as probable were DB Phillipe Motley and WR Dontavius Butler-Jenkins. Motley will probably just provide depth at this point, but Butler-Jenkins was talked up quite a bit during camp by several of the coaches. We'v...

The bulk of Syracuse's offense centers around QB Eric Dungey and two wideouts - the aforementioned Steve Ishmael and Ervin Phillips. In five games, Ishmael has 51 receptions and Phillips has 44. Phillips has 28 receptions in his last two games (had 17 against NC State). For whatever it's worth, Syra...

If it’s Browne - and it sounds like it is - I hope it clicks for him this week. Honestly, if he can’t make something happen this week, he never will. Pitt struggled on offense the last two games and some of that is on the offensive line. That said, they moved the ball well in the first half against ...

Slappy, Sounds like it. According to Peak, JJS gave up the sack in the gif posted above and was benched. For the rest of the game, the right side of the line was Hodges at guard and Bookser at tackle. I feel bad for JJS because it seems like that injury just destroyed whatever quickness. You can see...

Pitt clique might disagree, but it's still better than trying to be a Pirates fan. That is a truly thankless task. I can speak to this, to some degree.

I am prepared to give them a pass on this year. His first full cycle class is entering the third year in the program next year.

If you watch the Henderson punt return, right around the Pitt 30 yard line a number 7 in blue enters the bottom of the screen. That's Tom MacVittie, playing on the punt team.
