There is really not enough time for that. You're asking him to do research and cover 64 teams, 32 of them who are going to be gone after one game. Sweet Sixteen? Sure, but not the whole damn tournament.
I’m a Pitt alumni and this is 1000% spot on analysis. The fact of the matter is, and I hate to admit it, Pitts basketball “glory days” are over. There are so many things that would need to go right in order for Pitt to even achieve maybe a 500 record. I’m sorry but this team will be fucked for decades to come.
I just stumbled upon this video and I was curious what your thoughts are on the growth of the program these past two years, and if your options on Pitt's future have changed. I personally think based on what we've seen from Capel that he can turn this program around. That being said, this upcoming season will be huge in terms of where the future of Pitt basketball lies.
Hopefully this is the start of many videos on several different college universities and the sports that are plaguing certain programs. Perhaps you should do KU's football team sometime in August.
Jacoby Nixon Sure, but Kansas has had only one good year in the past 25 seasons and they're consistently ranked at the bottom of the Power 5 every single year. It wouldn't surprise me if KU dropped out of the Big 12 and went independent like with Notre Dame, Army, BYU, and UMass. The one question I have with that kind of move is would it fuck up the rest of KU's sports programs as well?
TLOWNSU The main purpose of these videos is to expose how incompetent, corrupt, or just how plain old bad some teams are. If it were strictly meant for the specific team getting roasted, the audience would be much smaller than 129K. It's time that someone goes over every element that took place from KU's Orange Bowl victory over Virginia Tech in 2008 to perennial 2-10 performer.
Trey Magathan Oh I know. I became a fan the moment I watched him rip my Rams apart and shit on Kroenke. The Blues one is also amazing. I'm just saying a good amount of KU fans won't care, but everyone else definitely will
Found this video long after it was made. Mostly spot on but the reason the recruiting pipeline dried up had nothing to do with the move to the ACC. The reason we stopped getting recruits from NYC is that the NY/NJ catholic schools that had been so good to Pitt all closed down and Jamie didn’t have as strong an inroad with the AAU scene in the area. In fact, NYC just kinda went downhill with bball full stop. It’s the reason why outside of Nova the new Big East is led by mostly Midwest schools.
Since my sister went to PITT, I’ve learned the true meaning of being PITTiful. Like you said, we wish we could go back to the days of having pretty good teams that choked when it mattered.

Tree, here are some suggestions for lolcow vids. The Minnesota Wild: Professional Hockey's Choked Barbecue The Pittsburgh Penguins: Professional Hockey's Luck & Bullshit The Philadelphia Flyers: Professional Hockey's Broad Street Bitches The Green Bay Packers: Professional Football's Moldy Cheese The St. Louis Cardinals: Professional Baseball's Loyalty Issue
5 years later and things shows promise for Pitt basketball. They had a nice year and won a few games in March Madness. Hopefully they can build further.
I highly doubt you still check comments on a two year old video, but I was curious on your thoughts about the program two years later? I'm personally super excited for this season and I think it's gonna be a really important season for them.
As a Syracuse fan this video gives me life. On a real note though, ever since the Big East split a ton of former/current Big East programs are struggling now and it's unfortunate to see. Basketball giants like Pitt, Georgetown, UConn, Louisville, Notre Dame, and even Syracuse have fallen from their glory days in the old Big East (for the most part). God I miss the old Big East, so many memories.....
That's what happens when a college that's football team isn't much of the focus kills the momentum that the basketball program has. Exhibit A Syracuse and Exhibit B Connecticut. Great video Tree
Pitt is starting to comeback, now that they have a coach who knows what their doing. Leaving the Big East is what hurt Pitt in basketball. Pitt left the Big East when the program is at a high point, and it’s just not the same. I think is adjusting to ACC play.
You're totally right that Pittsburgh's not a hotbed for basketball prospects. It really cracks me up that much more knowing that a former classmate of mine at Mt. Lebanon High School, Jonny David, who actually was our school's all-time leading scorer was content to have played a total of 24 minutes for the Wild Cats through the end of what is now his junior season as opposed to playing a single minute for the Panthers.
The SeatGeek code is truly great. With it, I was able to experience my first Blue Jackets game last Thursday night. 2 tickets for $27. Great deal I highly recommend!!
Hey Tree, I recently posted your Oilers vid on a Hockey Podcast sub reddit, and I gotta tell you, the fucking Hockey community in Canada is in love with you. Good for you brother, keep up the good work.
I mean, you say you were stupid when you were seven, but honestly if you hadn't picked Pitt the most likely alternative was getting pulled into the hideous Cult at Penn State. That's a fate that few deserve.
As a WVU fan who just watched us get outscored in the final 9 minutes by Kansas (YET A-FUCKING-GAIN), this is exactly what I needed to lift my spirits. Trashing Pitt's basketball team online myself helped, but to see someone from the city take a big, heaping, Cleveland Brown's style dump on their chest was exactly what I needed to bring me back up. That said, since I assume you're a Pitt fan, when will we see A Couch Fire of Mediocrity: WVU Men's Basketball? Or The Air Raid that Never Left the Ground: WVU Men's Football? I'd love to see you do some college teams and no better team to follow up your own team with than their most bitter rival!
hahahahaha The Big East and ACC (Atlantic Coastal Conference) are conferences in the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association). Most teams in the Big East aren't very good in general or are only good because they're in a bad Conference. It's no surprise that when Pitt decided to move conferences, they lost their competitive edge, especially because the ACC is such a tougher conference.
The Big East used to be the best college basketball conference in the sport. Think of it like the Premier League by you but all the teams are in the Northeast US. Some of the best programs in the sport are there or were there at one point.
Mister urinatingtree don't feel bad about getting your bit of money Form the SeatGeek thing you provide all of us with endless entertainment even when you're crushing the home teams bro your subscribers love you man the more brutal you are the more we love you SeatGeek all you want man you don't have 15 advertisements on your videos don't feel bad we get it you're a badass no fuck that you're an epic badass you say what all of us want to say about our own team and that is why we love you keep killing it!
Sometimes you take risks and it backfires. This is not one of those times. This is an athletic director running a program's winning culture to the ground so they can switch conferences. Do you think that they can adapt to the ACC or are they just fucked ten ways to Sunday? Shameful.
UrinatingTree But I said that this wasn't one of those times where you take a risk and it backfires. Regardless, thank you for replying. Glad to see the 129K hasn't stopped you from being down to earth with your viewers. For that, I respect you dearly.
Ah, well chalk that up for me not to paying enough attention. Besides, this is just shitposting. No need for me to become arrogant over this sort of thing.
UrinatingTree 1: Yeah, everyone makes mistakes. Don't sweat it. 2: It may just be shitposting for you, but for some of your audience it's a whole lot more. Besides, I have seen channels become arrogant over much less, so it's nice to see a level headed TH-camr like yourself and FivePoints make content that literally several dozens of thousands of people enjoy. Hell, if I hadn't come across you I wouldn't have uploaded videos on my channel. You've got this aura of inspiration that motivates little guys such as myself to keep on going, so that one day we can have success in our lives as well. That goes a lot further than just standard shitposting. So thank you Tree. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
i never understood why people went apeshit for collegiate athletics. outside of being a student or having family alum there, i just don't get how people actually think it's more watchable than the professional sports, especially if you're never gonna go there or have no chance of going there. there's so little parity in college sports, the best high school athletes always choose the better school: in football, it's always schools like alabama, USC, FSU, wisconsin, and ohio state; in basketball, it's always villanova, UNC, kansas, indiana, and kentucky. cheering for individual players, i get that, but it's really hard to cheer for a team unless your team is a goliath like the aforementioned schools.
Jake Delia it’s the the history and tradition... look up the Clemson’s Howard’s rock, Virginia techs enter sandman, Tennessee singing rocky top etc Pro sports for me at least is watching a corporate empire who don’t care about the fans (fuck you spanos) in college you’re team is more fan run than most pro teams It’s also easier to follow college football than other leagues because there’s only 12 games a year 15 maxim so for people who don’t want to watch a 100 game season + playoffs it’s appealing Finally it’s the idea that every game matters than really makes people go crazy..... to make the playoffs even for a sec team you can’t have more than 1 loss that’s a lot of pressure on every game but the champions deserve it more than other leagues because they have to win at least 14 out of 15 games and the pool of 136 teams makes it a lot harder
yeah but the history and tradition is only special if you're a student or a previous student at that school, it just seems pointless to throw your voice for a school that doesn't want you "there’s only 12 games a year 15 maxim so for people who don’t want to watch a 100 game season + playoffs it’s appealing" the idea of having LESS football is actually very unappealing to me but to each of their own i guess "to make the playoffs even for a sec team you can’t have more than 1 loss that’s a lot of pressure on every game but the champions deserve it more than other leagues because they have to win at least 14 out of 15 games and the pool of 136 teams makes it a lot harder" precisely why i think collegiate athletics are bullshit, i never hear about underdogs in the NCAA, it's always the titans of every big conference making it to the championship games. at least with professional sports you can draft up and choose the most touted junior prospect but the most touted high school prospect can pass on your school no matter how bad and desperate your team is.
Jake Delia ummmmm not really I could name you countless teams that have made the conference championship that where not favorites........ the reason there’s a lack of parody is because of recruiting but once coaches leave that can change quickly.... it isn’t like pro sports where only certain teams can throw tons of money at players (dodgers) where other teams can’t do that...... in college every team has the same opportunity to be great because of recruiting Talk to me about traditions when you go to the grove at ole miss and sailgating at Washington that will change your opinion on college sports
"in college every team has the same opportunity to be great because of recruiting" yes but again it's all decided by whether or not the player wants to go there, everybody's criteria is basically based on geographic location and/or how well the school does in developing their players. there's also that things it where highly touted coaches want to go, and they're always gonna go for the school with the best reputation "Talk to me about traditions when you go to the grove at ole miss and sailgating at Washington that will change your opinion on college sports" it won't because i don't give a shit because i don't go to either school although OU has a pretty extensive meteorology department so if i were to choose any school for anything it would be them i guess
I was always surprised that Pitt's successes in the Big East never made them a candidate for NBA expansion, something that I'm sure would've made plenty of young Yinzers want to take up basketball. Then again the Penguins nearly moved out of the city due to how old Civic Arena was so what the fuck do I know.
I know the feeling UrinatingTree. I'm a Missouri Tigers fan since it's my hometown and I am a student there, but by gawley we have our shortcomings too. Last year for our man's basketball team was terrible.
I did NOT expect this. And it was awesome. Tree, you may be tapping into yet again another underutilized market. If you do your type of work on college sports teams..... Forget 250K subs. You'd probably be at about 500K by this time next year.
Any chance of an Atlanta Braves video? Maybe Clemson University (we notoriously choke in baseball), we’re awful at basketball, but football hasn’t been bad in like 8 years though. I’m ready for the punishment.
A Yinzer is a "loyal" and sometimes hypocritical fan of any sports team in Pittsburgh. Look up and watch The Pittsburgh Steelers: Professional Football's Pharisee and you'll see what I mean.

3 years late to this video specifically, but would you ever consider doing a video about the Backyard Brawl? Lotta history there, and of course it's about Pitt
Wait til you hear about UMass basketball. We paid our coach more than the governor of Massachusetts but couldn't even win in the A10, and then when that coach left, half the team left too. They were about to hire a new coach, but he backed out of the job HALF AN HOUR BEFORE HIS INTRODUCTORY PRESS CONFERENCE. They hired a different guy, but they still finished 13th in the A10. Our football program's an even bigger joke, too.
The Louis XVI treatment. You may want to trademark that, Tree. It's surprisingly funny, especially if you took a World History class at some point in your life.
Can you make one for Maryland? We aren't much above you guys considering we weren't even able to make the NIT this year and we had the most underachieving team 2 years ago.

Found this video long after it was made. Mostly spot on but the reason the recruiting pipeline dried up had nothing to do with the move to the ACC. The reason we stopped getting recruits from NYC is that the NY/NJ catholic schools that had been so good to Pitt all closed down and Jamie didn’t have as strong an inroad with the AAU scene in the area. In fact, NYC just kinda went downhill with bball full stop. It’s the reason why outside of Nova the new Big East is led by mostly Midwest schools.

Pitt is starting to comeback, now that they have a coach who knows what their doing. Leaving the Big East is what hurt Pitt in basketball. Pitt left the Big East when the program is at a high point, and it’s just not the same. I think is adjusting to ACC play.

Pro sports for me at least is watching a corporate empire who don’t care about the fans (fuck you spanos) in college you’re team is more fan run than most pro teams
It’s also easier to follow college football than other leagues because there’s only 12 games a year 15 maxim so for people who don’t want to watch a 100 game season + playoffs it’s appealing
Finally it’s the idea that every game matters than really makes people go crazy..... to make the playoffs even for a sec team you can’t have more than 1 loss that’s a lot of pressure on every game but the champions deserve it more than other leagues because they have to win at least 14 out of 15 games and the pool of 136 teams makes it a lot harder

precisely why i think collegiate athletics are bullshit, i never hear about underdogs in the NCAA, it's always the titans of every big conference making it to the championship games. at least with professional sports you can draft up and choose the most touted junior prospect but the most touted high school prospect can pass on your school no matter how bad and desperate your team is.
Jake Delia ummmmm not really I could name you countless teams that have made the conference championship that where not favorites........ the reason there’s a lack of parody is because of recruiting but once coaches leave that can change quickly.... it isn’t like pro sports where only certain teams can throw tons of money at players (dodgers) where other teams can’t do that...... in college every team has the same opportunity to be great because of recruiting
Talk to me about traditions when you go to the grove at ole miss and sailgating at Washington that will change your opinion on college sports
"in college every team has the same opportunity to be great because of recruiting"
yes but again it's all decided by whether or not the player wants to go there, everybody's criteria is basically based on geographic location and/or how well the school does in developing their players. there's also that things it where highly touted coaches want to go, and they're always gonna go for the school with the best reputation
"Talk to me about traditions when you go to the grove at ole miss and sailgating at Washington that will change your opinion on college sports"
it won't because i don't give a shit because i don't go to either school
although OU has a pretty extensive meteorology department so if i were to choose any school for anything it would be them i guess
Jake Delia then that shows how close minded you are I try to go to as many sports as possible
I was always surprised that Pitt's successes in the Big East never made them a candidate for NBA expansion, something that I'm sure would've made plenty of young Yinzers want to take up basketball. Then again the Penguins nearly moved out of the city due to how old Civic Arena was so what the fuck do I know.
Only UrinatingTree could make basketball exciting
A best way to start a week, a new Urinatingtree vid
Next you have to do the Minnesota Wild: The state of mediocrity
The Minnesota Wild: Professional Hockey's Choked Barbecue
Minnesota Wild: The Blackhawks annoying little brother
Like how you still threw shade at Penn State at the end. Nice going.
Dough goes in...
Tortillas come out
I know the feeling UrinatingTree. I'm a Missouri Tigers fan since it's my hometown and I am a student there, but by gawley we have our shortcomings too. Last year for our man's basketball team was terrible.
"Why didn't I become an insufferable Penn State Fan?"
Well you have to balance out for being insufferable steelers fan somewhere.
I feel you, I’m an auburn fan. I watch them choke against unranked teams, and I am still optimistic about the teams future.
Bro if you live in the burgh let me send you some brews lol.
Yes! Thanks Tree! This video goes over all of what I'm dealing with as a student at Pitt right now lmao
How do the Astros celebrating winning the championship grossly under pay Alax bregmen and Carlos cara
Eric Douglas Because most North American leagues are designed to maximize rookie contracts.
Who is Carlos Cara?
Tony H sorry Correa
Alessia Caras brother...
The Houston Astros: Professional Baseball's Disappointing Gesture
Never knew UT was from Pitt, but it explains a lot of his Philly animosity
“God Damn High Point”
What I say when the student loan bill comes due...
As a Pitt alum... This is gold... Well done sir!
Bashing his own college team lmao
Pitt fans will always bash Pitt

It’s easy when 90% Of your state teams are trash.
He's a Steelers fan too and he rips on the yinzers mercilessly
Patrick Stump I can confirm this. We suck balls.
so will west virginia fans
I did NOT expect this. And it was awesome.
Tree, you may be tapping into yet again another underutilized market. If you do your type of work on college sports teams..... Forget 250K subs. You'd probably be at about 500K by this time next year.
Nothing more satisfying than watching (Sh)ittsburgh fail at everything
Hot Cosby (insert Joe Knew joke)
Hot Cosby go state! But still your giving a bad look to our fanbase. Be polite
And then the Pens might lose to the Rangers or Bruins in the first round.
Sime'on Manzac11 hockey?
Sime'on Manzac11 Lets hope that happens. Fuck the Pens
Any chance of an Atlanta Braves video? Maybe Clemson University (we notoriously choke in baseball), we’re awful at basketball, but football hasn’t been bad in like 8 years though. I’m ready for the punishment.
As someone living in Pittsburgh, I can confirm all of this. Thank god I am not a Pitt fan.
This is why I make fun of Yinzers. I know 2 that go to my high school.
Sime'on Manzac11 what the hell is a Yinzer 😂😂😂
A Yinzer is a "loyal" and sometimes hypocritical fan of any sports team in Pittsburgh.
Look up and watch The Pittsburgh Steelers: Professional Football's Pharisee and you'll see what I mean.
Sime'on Manzac11 I am a diehard Steeler fan, but nothing else Pittsburgh
Sime'on Manzac11 I see what you mean. I'm from Atlanta and we have tons of fans just like that.
I’m so glad I was brought up a West Virginia fan and not a Pitt fan
I’m an avid Steelers pirates and penguins fan but let’s be real everybody in Pittsburgh hates pitt
My Thoughts Why do y’all hate Pitt?
@@xdgaming70 instead of an actual basketball team they got this
Phoenix Rising I’m also assuming Panthers football isn’t a point of interest for yinzers either?
Here are some more suggestions. Please react.
Arsenal: The Decline and Fall of an Empire
The New England Patriots: Professional Football's Deal with the Devil
The Orlando Magic: Professional Basketball's Disappearing Act
Louisville Sports: The Definition of Insanity
Liverpool: Professional Soccer's Little Brother
Sime'on Manzac11 nobody likes soccer
Screw basketball, get on with the hockey/baseball.
They even beat Iowa State today
Great work, as always. You should talk about my Notre Dame Fighting Irish
3 years late to this video specifically, but would you ever consider doing a video about the Backyard Brawl? Lotta history there, and of course it's about Pitt
The only person that can subtly advertise and be funny.
Wait til you hear about UMass basketball. We paid our coach more than the governor of Massachusetts but couldn't even win in the A10, and then when that coach left, half the team left too. They were about to hire a new coach, but he backed out of the job HALF AN HOUR BEFORE HIS INTRODUCTORY PRESS CONFERENCE. They hired a different guy, but they still finished 13th in the A10.
Our football program's an even bigger joke, too.
Really surprised we have not gotten a "Congrats Virginia" video yet
The Louis XVI treatment. You may want to trademark that, Tree. It's surprisingly funny, especially if you took a World History class at some point in your life.
When's that Congrats, Virginia! video coming out?
Well damn, Oregon State's entire Athletic Dept is imploding. Thanks Barnes! 😠
Can you make one for Maryland? We aren't much above you guys considering we weren't even able to make the NIT this year and we had the most underachieving team 2 years ago.
I was waiting on the Kemba step back and I’m kinda surprised you didn’t put it in
You should do a haters guide of the final four of March madness
As a Penn State alum and fan, this makes me very happy.
