We are pleased to report that Glorious QB Phil Jurkovec has thrown yet another perfect game for the Panthers, leading to a 111-0 win over the counter-revolutionary Mountaineers.
nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how “busy you were”
- how many hours you worked
people will remember:
-daniels, gonna throw on first down
-goes to the sidelines, has a man wide OPEN
-IT’S TIPPED
-IT’S PICKED OFF
-M.J. DEVONSHIRE
Find a way to get them on the schedule for 2026-28 and then make the rivalry permanent past 2032. A year without playing WV is a failure of both athletic departments
The real narrative here is that Brown needed to face Phil Jurkovec, quite possibly worst quarterback to ever touch the field for Pitt, to not lose the Brawl
Pros:
- Bub Carrington going high in the draft is great for the program
- Announced early that he’s going, staff can focus on the portal
- There is still a ton of production coming back next year
Cons
- Personally, I’m sad about it
BREAKING: Five-Star DL Justin Scott tells me he has Flipped his Commitment from Ohio State to Miami!
The Top 10 Recruit in the ‘24 Class had been Committed to the Buckeyes since July
“From the first time they offered me to now, they never changed.”
Huge flip for the Hurricanes
Anonymous UCLA player on Pitt K Ben Sauls:
“He walked in our locker room pregame & walked right by me. I’m like, what the hell is he coming in our locker room for…”
“& he walked by me & he looked at our entire defense & said, “Lace em up, it’s gonna be a long fucking game”
Blake Hinson has been by far the best player of the Capel era. He has been the keystone in this program turning around. One more in The Zoo for him tonight, everyone in attendance needs to realize they are watching a program legend play in front of their eyes.
🚨 BREAKING 🚨
Punxsutawney Phil has predicted that Penn State fans will still be really fucking annoying for the next twelve months! Phil has now made this prediction every year since 1887 😱
Penn State Fans: we miss you joe! The NCAA was just too mean to you 🥺 and thats why we keep your statue in a secret location
Joe Paterno (in hell): AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA FUCK IT’S SO HOT DOWN HERE
ESPN’s Joe Lunardi talks
#Pitt
.
SVP advocates for Pitt’s case here. Lunardi makes it clear that the committee does not reward bubble teams with bad non-conference strength of schedules.
Coach Prime kept the receipts 😂
When talking about Pitt transfers Dayon Hayes and Samuel Okunlola Prime said “I want to thank the head coach from Pittsburgh for preparing those young men for us”
Hearing a lot about this sign-stealing scandal at Michigan. There's one coach who was ahead of the curve here, and the B10 could learn something from Whip.
Your signs can't get stolen if you don't have any! Not to mention, running to the sidelines for every play is great cardio.
CHANGE IN ALL-SPORTS SUCCESS 🎓🏆
Pre-Covid vs. Post-Covid Eras
Looking at how schools have fared in overall all-sports success in more recent years compared to pre-Covid years is quite interesting.
Here are the 15 biggest gains vs. biggest losses in avg. Directors' Cup points:
Foot soldiers of the Pitt Volleyball Revolution: today marks the start of our march on the cornfields. Do not back down. Patriots are in control. Our assault on Tampa starts Thursday night.
If I had a penny for every time an official Pitt athletics account posted this edit I made, I'd have two pennies. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it's happened twice
Don’t fuck up on special teams if you don’t want to get stunted on. Also stop crying about players not liking each other in a rivalry. hope this helps 👍🏻
And NO, we will not shut up about this. We have every right to fight that our team deserved to have a chance in this tournament. Blake Hinson deserved to be in this tournament. Instead, the committee wanted to see Boise State!
Pitt moving up one spot is a joke. Behind multiple two loss teams!
Preseason and SEC bias is nuts. A 7-0 power team being outside the top 15 is disrespect, straight up
This is still a momentous achievement for Pitt Volleyball. Make no mistake.
Three F4s in a row is a nothing to sneeze at. This team is one of the best in the country. They’re right there.
Nebraska has exactly one loss this season. No shame to lose this one.
We’ll be back here.
I asked Pat Narduzzi if he was concerned about Jurkovec’s psyche against North Carolina this week after having two rough games and being booed against Cincinnati.
His full response. (The “Boo City” remark is from 0:24-0:29.)
I don’t think there is one player in the country that has more God-given talent than Rodney Hammond.
A Heisman Trophy, national title, and
#1
overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft are all possibilities for him.
I’m interested to see his growth and how he’s used this fall.

I don’t think there is one player in the country that has more God-given talent than J.J. McCarthy.

Tierlist of every Pitt uniform worn since 1976.
The 2022 backyard brawl unis are separated out because the blue chrome facemask makes those uniforms so much better than the usual home unis.
Pat Narduzzi talking about this rivalry like he is in the jungles of Vietnam is why it's the best in college sports. Now deploy agent orange on the WV sideline
It was a beautiful week in Pittsburgh, but Pitt practiced indoors all week. Why?
"Extra careful. You've got people in the hills. They live in the hills and they've got binoculars. Mountaineers, man, they're up there. In the mountains right there. Hey, take nothing for granted."
Every major CBB analyst (outside of
@JayBilas
) and the committee should be ashamed of their thoughts on the ACC this year. It was and always has been the best conference for CBB in the country. Meanwhile you praise the MWC and they get 6 bids for while the 4th team in ACC is OUT.
