Agreed.

Also seems like Narduzzi could have gotten a better job.

He probably will in a few years. Seems like good hire, though. He shouldn't have to flip the whole roster to install his system.

He's biding his time at Pitt until he gets a big-time job. Wouldn't mind seeing him at LSU once Les retires.

About as big of a splash as Pitt could have hoped for. No one knows if he will be successful, but most like him for sure.

And agreed. It's likely a stepping stone job for him. If he likes the roster, he may feel that he can get his HC 'experience' (like most big programs want) and quickly move up.

Dude always puts solid defenses on the field. Anxious to see what direction he goes in for OC.

Rumor is he will keep Rudolph on staff as OC.

Yes...but Pitt is the perfect place to land a BIG job next time around.

I don't think he was going to get a top notch job as DC of MSU.

Yeah, if he does well at a place like PITT, I wonder if he'd take over for Dantonio. Figured he wasnt going to do the HCIW route, and this would be a good test for PN..
