can't read what you're saying (ignore list), but you seem to take everything to heart. Panthergrowl understood the thread is over and moved on, but you won't let this go.
Cause he's trolling and growls stating his opinion as a Pitt fan who follows RU too..ignore.

Haha you should read what the Pittsburgh premium site said about Rene. Lets just say they shouldn't be as confident as in this thread.

False, he reached out to us and we listened. He wants no part of the ACC.

Really? Can you tell me exactly where you heard that from? I mean, Pat's a pretty smart guy and did his homework before he came to Pitt, what is it about the ACC he doesn't want any part of?

I'm not confident on Rene at all coming to Pitt. He likes Rutgers and he may still end up there. Campbell and Morgan and Johnson may be different. We'll see.

Its always a pleasure to discuss sports topics with the Rutgers Nation.

Wish you guys the best and have a great Christmas (or Holiday) season.

Always a Rutgers fan when you play Penn State.

NO NETWORK and NO RESPECT....JMO.

So Pat left MSU to coach at Pitt knowing there was no "network" for the ACC, and in your opinion "no respect" for the ACC, and took the job anyway? And then after one year decides he wants out cause the B1G has a network? Um, ok.

Wait, you guys actually think narduzzi had talks with Rutgers? This reminds me of the Dan Mullen/mark richt comments Pitt fans made last year. They were both finalists for the Pitt job too.

Final comment/follow up on what has been a lively recruiting discussion and Pat Narduzzi coaching Pitt.

As I have speculated in this thread, last night Pat Narduzzi's contract as the head coach of Pitt has been extended until 2021. Speculation he will be making between $3.0 and $3.5 million per year with increases for his staff. Financial details are not provided so those numbers are just speculation.

The contract extension comes on the heels of a big recruiting weekend and I think our new chancellor and AD want the recruits to know that Pat is totally supported by the Pitt Administration and will be the Head Coach at the University of Pittsburgh for many years to come.

I think Pat Narduzzi is a good game day coach and is going to be a great recruiter for Pitt (evidence by February).

As an aside, B Mendenhall just signed a 5 year contract to coach at UVA for $3.5 million per year.

HAIL TO PITT!!!!

Chryst and Graham bounced real quick.

Obviously nobody nowadays wants to coach Pitt for very long...why it it so surprising? LOL

Narduzzi did not reach out to Rutgers. This is a complete lie. This isn't my opinion or a guess. You guys are very gullible. I'm not belittling Rutgers, I'm just telling you that this rumor was used as negative recruiting. It is absolutely, 100% false. I'm pretty sure nobody on here has anybody closer to the situation than me

How closely do you follow Rutgers sports? You don't because you are a Pitt fan. Don't try telling Rutgers fans what is true or not true when it concerns Rutgers. Btw, watch the door before another coach walks out on your school.

Narduzzi might not have personally reached out to RU about its HC opening, but you can bet your sweet bippy he didn't stop his agent from doing so.

Pitt is a midway stop on to something bigger and better. Their last two coaches have proven that. And yes, Narduzzi wanted to move into the big leagues. Good for Pitt that Ash was more highly regarded.

Why are we debating facts?

Hahaha...I love ya man, thanks for the laughs. The last two coaches leaving have absolutely no bearing on the current situation at Pitt, but hey, keep on telling your self that. And you really believe that Chris Ash is more highly regarded defensively than Narduzzi? Sure chief, keep choppin!

Anytime a kid commits and still plans on making visits, don't consider him a commit.
I just look on recruits like that as having a heavy favorite, but not totally convinced it's
where he wants to go.
But all verbals aren't the final act and all schools must hope the commits , whether they stopped visiting other schools or not, keeps their pledge and signs on the dotted line LOI Day.
I'm not worried, think Patrice will sign on the dotted line and become a Scarlet Knight

If you are so inclined, you can google an article appearing in today's (12/11/15) Pittsburgh Post Gazette entitled "Narduzzi gets 2-year extension". Contains lots of interesting fact.

HAIL TO PITT!!!!
