@CarterCritiques I can understand not firing Capel this year, but if Pitt doesn’t make a huge splash in the transfer portal this offseason we’ll know Greene’s entire statement was just BS.

The decision to keep Jeff Capel made the most sense for the same reason it did after the 2021-2022 season. Buyout is a big number and #Pitt athletics is already trying to solve financial issues from previous admin.
Adding two buyouts when you’re already bottom of the conference in NIL spending — which is the biggest reason Pitt was terrible this year — would only make you much worse.
Giving Capel another year keeps his strong recruiting class together, saves you money, and gives you time. Either he turns the next team into a winner or you roll.
And if anything, the financial situation is even worse than it was before within the department. Actually invest in this next team and try to win. Then go from there.

Yes, I am actively walking around downtown in the middle of the day instead of working.

PNC is bringing back office workers to Downtown Pittsburgh this spring. It will provide a big boost to the neighborhood's office worker post-pandemic recovery, and the bank believes it will jump start Downtown's daytime activity rebound. axios.com/local/pittsbur…

People aren’t getting my point. Getting a single bye for winning 3 games is silly to me.
Italy, Denmark, Latvia, and France should be eliminated. US and Canada should receive automatic semifinals births. And then the remaining teams play each other to reach semis. That would be a proper advantage.

What is the point of the preliminaries if no one is eliminated? #dumb

The time is now. Win or go home. #WinterOlympics

@typical_todd Yeah, I’m not really “agreeing” with the decision. Just pointing out from your pic that they want to create a denser crowd lower.
Acrisure’s capacity & limiting sections has always been talked about so it’s not super surprising they did it. Esp a year with a weak home sched
English
@Tyler_Hawk Nah. They could've closed off the visitor side upper deck and the upper level bleachers above the north end zone to reduce capacity, but still left the home side upper deck that has the great view and where so many current season ticket holders are
English
I feel for anyone losing their seats and having to move/consider not renewing, but this picture is a perfect example of why this decision was made.
Todd@typical_todd
@BigSteve_H Imagine wanting to get rid of seats with this awesome view... I don't get that at all.

@TheLoyalSons I think it’s fair to expect 8 wins +/- 2 depending on the way the wind blows.
Which tbh, I think that’s perfectly fine in this era of college football for Pitt until they figure out their finances or “regulation” comes in.
Fighting chance to make it to Charlotte.

Ok serious thoughts.
- Typical easy start to the year. UCF and Cuse shouldn’t be good. Could one of those be a hiccup game?
- Duzz vs Franklin followed by Duzz vs Belichick 🤺
- Would be feeling a bit too confident right now if we had some more exciting portal additions.

Steelers were exactly who they were all season and the last 5+ years.
Just a bad football team.

The first trailer for ‘SHRINKING’ Season 3 has been released.
Premiering January 28 on Apple TV

This is a funny notion but anyone who has watched 16 Steelers games knows that’s how they always look
Danny Cunningham@RealDCunningham
It’s legitimately funny that Pittsburgh’s offensive plan is more about not allowing Myles Garrett to sack Aaron Rodgers than it is to score points.
English
@AmandaFGodsey Today by a long shot. We basically had our entire starting roster playing, and the offense couldn’t do anything all day.
At least last years game was somewhat fun to watch with Duggar.
English
Which bowl loss was worse, today's against ECU or last year's 6 OT debacle vs. Toledo? I still think the Toledo loss was worse.
English
@TheLoyalSons He’s got some red flags in the decision making department but O Line is still the most worrying piece of the offense. He has zero time every other snap.

Who cares, beat the Browns

Packers now don’t have to beat Ravens to get in playoffs.
