Re: OT: Pitt
Now here's my thought on that. Okay, it would be quite an ambitious goal to say that you are going to run neck and neck with the conference blue bloods like Duke and North Carolina every year. That would be tough to do. But there is no reason in the world why Pitt can't be very competitive with them and make them earn their wins while Pitt would get some victories against them as well.
But I'm a big picture guy. I'm not so concerned about winning the ACC as I am about seeing Pitt do well in the NCAA tournament. No reason in the world that they cannot do this. Look at some of these Elite Eight/Final Four teams in the past bunch of years--- Florida Gulf Coast, VCU, George Mason, Butler, Loyola Chicago, Wichita State, etc.
Why not Pitt? They came close to the Final Four a decade ago. Pitt can succeed!
But I guess my biggest ambition for the program is to just have it at a place where you want to actually turn on the television set and want to settle down for a few hours to watch them play on a cold winter's night.
