Some [Pitt] Things to Consider

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

Here are some random things I was thinking about as I sit in my hotel still strung out from the redbull[s] I had to drink to get through the 7 hour drive to Kansas City tonight. In regards to just how far this Pitt team has come, I submit the following: ...

Congratulations Hoopies. Good win.

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008
