OT: D1

[Fightingscot82]

Bowl season is a mess. Miami dropped out of their bowl. The Military Bowl is canceled.

Rutgers going bowling at 5-7!!

It looks like Fisher was an advisor at Tennessee st where Eddie George is the HC this season. Probably why the ETSU thing came about. Also, just saw he's not in the running anymore.

Vitaly Gurman the former Boro OL was 3rd team all MAC this season at Toledo.

Yep. I didn't realize he'd been out of the game so long. Still ... with his pedigree, I'd have suspected a little more high-profile gig.

ETSU was probably ok with a 5-5 record every year.

Jeff Fisher (yes, that Jeff Fisher) has interviewed for the East Tennessee State job.

Seems like a fall down the ladder.

A job is a job.

Don't forget about Bill Cosby at Fisher.

Vanilla Ice played the HUB ... lol didn't sell enough tickets for the auditorium. I attended the show.

The late 90s early 2000s seemed like a heyday for local entertainment and celebrities in Indiana. Bob Dylan at Fisher, Violent Femmes at the ice rink, Jamir Jager at Al Pattis, For better or worse that craziness is long over.

Remember when Jake The Snake wrestled in a bar on Philly Street in the late 90s?

Smart move by the Duzz because Slovis brings in the extensive P5 game day experience that the other QBs on Pitt's roster lack. Hopefully he will perform to the potential that he showed earlier in his college career. What does Patti do? Stay with Pitt, get a masters degree, and be a reliable and trusted backup? Absolutely nothing wrong with that scenario. Or, does he want to play and be the number one somewhere? JMU? IUP? He does have some - albeit a smallish resume - of P5 game day experience. But man, that amenity step down from a $25M ish program to a $2M is program is huge.

Pitt beat out Notre Dame (among many others) to land Slovis. He said getting to play with Jordan Addison for a year (reigning Biletnikoff winner and consensus All-American) sealed the deal. Also huge for Pitt is he has two years' eligibility.

Patti should probably move on -- if he wants to play. Pitt also has former Arizona State QB Joey Yellen in the program. He actually went head-to-head against Slovis a couple years ago in a Pac 10 game.

USC transfer Kedon Slovis (QB) is signing with Pitt.
