Chris, then from what you are saying, it seems that Marcus Bowman at OU would be an excellent candidate. Many others have raised his name as a good fit - Pitt bonafides, financial background, experience at a big-time program. Hope that he gets a good look by Pitt.
I liked Heather Lyke, from what you said yesterday during the live stream Chris, things were not good in the athletic department as they appeared on the surface. In today’s NCAA you have to be on board with NIL. If you’re not, you’ll get far behind in the game. This is the new way of college athletics, whether we like it or not.
If he wants the job, Louis Riddick is the obvious choice and it’s not because he’s a former panther. That’s only probably 10% of the reason why I want him to have the job from the outside looking in. He just seems to have so much knowledge not only on football, but how sports organizations should be structured He’s also very widely liked and known could help in more ways than one. With hiring coaches and NIL deals
But Pitt was winning all round. Soccer, women’s field hockey, basketball, football but Duzzi was here two years ago prior. But the athletic department was cooking. Okay she was spending a little bit more money but we were winning over all. I don’t get it
You changed my opinion with your comments I didn’t think he would be the guy for the job but after everything you said it seems like Louis Riddick would be a Homerun hire 🤔
The vast majority of the money for the Pete, came from the state of Pennsylvania. Mr. Peterson gave a very generous amount, I believe $10 million, but the state put up the rest of it. The Pete us not a product of basketball success. There had been no success in the late 90s.
I have another option, and that's to totally tune-out all college sports. And that will be MY loss, if I choose to do so. But I'm close to turning it completely off because it's a disgusting cess pool. The purpose of a university is to advance human knowledge through research and teaching. These athletic programs should be business spin-offs, associated with a university as a marketing tool, but nothing more. If a university needs a sports program in order to survive as a university, it shouldn't be a university.
These sports programs are the major revenue generators for the university’s. I’m 100% agree with you on the pursuit of knowledge and advancing our intelligence as a species, but if these sports programs didn’t exist, they would get LESS money not more.
These sports programs can't even pay for themselves, let alone the rest of the university. That's a major part of the problem at Pitt. Athletics is bleeding money and needs cash from the university in order to pay it's bills. Pitt makes no profit from athletics. It registers as a "break-even," but that's after they balance the ledger annually.
Don't have to completely tune out college athletics, Div 2 Div 3 and the Ivy aren't like this. But past that it is either accept it, ignore it, or don't complain if your school of choice decides not to pay and finishes last every year. Sucks but that's where we are now and it'll never go back to how it was.
Then how do you want Pitt to stay competitive? If Pitt wants to win a national championship, the entire Panther community needs to support the NIL Collective.
Well reality check like it or not it’s here. If you want success, you gotta pay up. If not, you’re going to see your team at the bottom of the barrel year in and year out.

Appreciate the video Chris! This next AD has to be someone from the “new guard”. NCAA athletics have changed and we need a fresh face at the wheel!

Lest we forget, the university is there for a reason other than trying to win national championships.

Athletics at Pitt does not make money. The university makes up for it's deficit each year in order to bring it to a balanced budget.
it's been a cesspool, you and others might not have known it and it sure wasn't in our faces as much as now but cesspool is not new at all

I don't have to support NIL. I stand up for what is right and refuse to donate money to college players. College players should not be paid.
Then how do you want Pitt to stay competitive? If Pitt wants to win a national championship, the entire Panther community needs to support the NIL Collective.
Support it or not, it's here to stay. Help out or keep quiet, imo.
Why shouldn’t they be paid?
Well reality check like it or not it’s here. If you want success, you gotta pay up.

You’re part of the problem
Joan Gabel should be fired for her poor descison.
Maybe. Needs to be looked into.
