Panthers Halt Raiders

Friday, November 28th, 2008

Pitt is off to a nice start to the weekend, having beaten WVU in the Backyard Brawl for the second straight year, and now beating Texas Tech in Basketball 80-67.  Pitt faces Washington St. tomorrow with the chance to make my Thanksgiving weekend perfect. While Pitt won, and it was clear ...

Nice win without Blair

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Belmont is a team that Pitt should beat, no matter what.  As is Miami (OH), IUP, Akron, etc.  Pitt is talented and deep- though their depth includes several freshmen and sophomores.  But learning that DeJuan Blair was going to be out against Belmont was scary because, as we saw in ...

Solid Game, Nice Win for Hoops

Monday, November 17th, 2008

First of all, I have to thank Altitude, a Denver based tv station, for recognizing that Big 12 basketball is worthless and carrying the Big East in stead.  As one who lives about five miles from Denver, I have that city to thank for getting to see two Pitt games ...

I am not the first Pitt blogger to notice and comment on the high expectations that many in the media have heaped on our Pitt Panthers basketball team for next year. After reading on Oakland Zoo and Pitt Blather about the brackets that Joe Lunardi had put out for ...

End of Hoops Season Thoughts

Monday, March 24th, 2008

This is the worst kind of post to have to write. 64 of 65 teams end their season with their bloggers writing these kind of posts, so I know I am not alone. But it sucks to have to say goodbye to a season. There have been a lot ...

Bad trip to Denver

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

I can't think of a worse way for Pitt to have ended their season this year. They had a mediocre end of the regular season, causing us to feel like this team would probably win 1 game in the NCAA tournament. Then they tore through the Big East ...

Great Pitt Game

Friday, March 21st, 2008

The Pitt-Oral Roberts game was everything that a Pitt fan (and nothing that an Oral Roberts fan) could want. ORU was in the game for about 5 minutes. They were actually up 13-10. Then Pitt went on an 18-0 run and slammed the door on any idea ...
