Pitt Panther Rants And Other Sports Rant

People were screaming about the lack of commitments in Pitt's class. Father's Day weekend, they land 10-11 players. Obviously the ones interested, Pitt had to get them on campus. Also talking Heather Lyke and Mike Leach

Pitt Football finally gets its first player. Heather Lyke is still doing some interesting things at AD. I talk about the conclusion of the NBA and NHL playoffs. It's a slow sports news period so stories like Antonio Brown and players hugging after a baseball get lots of attention. I talk about Father's Day and challenges couples have when it comes to having kids.

NBA and NHL playoffs are pretty much done. If Caps beat an expansion team on a network no one will watch, does it count. Eagles got their invite to the White House pulled which means we could see no teams visiting any time soon. Coach Capel is piling up talent for Pitt Hoops and Football lands much needed help at Tight End for this year. Finally, I break down Pitt Football's biggest wins from 2000-present.

An exciting weekend of sports is upon us. Can the Celtics close out Lebron? Can the Rockets win without CP3? What about Ovie?

I talk about the Pitt Recruiting Drought that has some Concerned. I say enjoy the weather and let the coaches worry about it. Also talk the NBA playoffs.

Slow news week so I cover some random topics. Pitt Baseball is in the ACC tournament. Does Lyke stick with Jordano? Also talking Pitt Hoops and Pitt Football. I talk about the Pirates and their attendance issue along with the Pens' fans conflict of rooting for Marc Andre-Fleury. I talk NBA playoffs and could Mark Cuban go after Jamie Dixon next?

Pitt Softball got snubbed despite winning their division and getting to the title game. Pitt Football lost a player and another in Hoops found his new destination. Pitt Hoops landed another player, but he's just really a body.

The series renewal between Pitt-PSU won't be revisited until 2030. Until then, time to move on. Pitt has been doing fine without the series. I also talk Pitt Hoops along with their time in the Draft from 2000-present

Pens got eliminated, but they deserve praise today. Marcus Carr announces his new destination....moving on. I take a look at Pitt Football players selected in the draft

Pitt introduced its inaugural Hall of Fame class today, and the names were quite obvious. Who's next? Also I talk about the never-ending absurdity that Pitt should accept a 2-1 deal to keep the Pitt-Penn State series going. Pitt is doing just fine and doesn't need Penn State. I end the show talking Pitt Football and Pitt Hoops

Pitt had three players drafted over the weekend. I also talk about the players that signed free agent contracts. Jeff Capel lands another guard and just like that, the backcourt is looking good.

Jeff Capel gets his first commitment and it's a much needed point guard. Heather Lyke reveals her plans for the future for Pitt Athletics and we are all onboard.

Another player could be set to leave the Pitt Hoops program. Does he want to sit another year? Also talking Pitt Baseball and their chances of making of the ACC tournament. Does Heather make a change despite the program finally trending upward? Plus I talk some NBA playoffs and the Pens moving on.

I talk about the new hire Heather Lyke has made for the women's hoop team. It obviously has upset one person and when Pitt Twitter tries to reason with her, she comes off even more idiotic. I also talk Jeff Capel and him on the recruiting trail.

I give my thoughts on Pitt's spring game and the great times people had. Pitt-Penn State is now an 8pm kickoff. Heather has balls unlike previous leadership. Jeff Capel completes his staff. People are worried about boycotting Starbucks. I'm here to tell them their coffee hasn't been good in a long time and there are other places that have better coffee.

It's that time of the year for Spring Football where some fan bases pound their chest to the crowd size of their team's Spring game. I talk the Pitt Spring game and what to look for....if anything.

Suzie McConnell-Serio was fired this past Thursday. If Heather didn't hire you and you're aren't performing, she doesn't have to keep you. Parker Stewart leaves Pitt which was no surprise. Paterno movie was on HBO over the weekend and I give my thoughts.

Wrapping up March Madness and an odd season it was. I talk about the post-game where a Donte DiVincenzo was asked about some tweets when he was 14. I talk more about Jeff Capel and his time at Duke when he was hired.

Jeff Capel gave a great opening speech on Thursday. Being a coach also means politicking at times. I talk the conclusion of March Madness that happens tonight. Le'Veon Bell is not a villain, he's just wants paid more money. Also, Aaron Donald trains with with knives.

Pitt finally makes its hire for Head basketball coach and it's a great one in Jeff Capel. I talk about that and Final Four Predictions.
