They have a lot of A-list targets attending Joe's game today for a final song and dance.
Tort is an excellent recruiter. No question. Parents eat him up. He comes across as very down to earth, caring, trust-worthy, etc.
Which, of course, they should. That's not an act. He also sells the fact he's been here 25 years along with his top assistants. Parents love that stuff.
The KCAC will be packed today which really helps sell recruits.
Tort didn't lose a single player to the Portal. That's actually incredible.

Just about every human in that stadium has been blamed for an entire coaching staff being unaware of the timeout count. Despite, of course, the entire home side screaming they were out of timeouts.
It's become a running joke on here - and, without question, part of Tort's legacy.
If you didn't see it ... you wouldn't believe it.

He was fired at Pitt the previous season. He didn't coach this past year.
Prior to Pitt he was at Boston College. Before that at many other D1 stops.
As for Cignetti, Jr., they couldn’t wait to run him out of Pitt but name the last beloved OC in Pittsburgh at any level. It’s an extremely difficult job and a guy may call the best play for a given situation only to watch a player run a wrong route, miss an assignment, etc., and it’s the OC’s fault. I didn’t see enough Pitt games to have an opinion but he certainly has a ton of experience and football is usually pretty good in this town when a Cignetti is involved.

I'll say you can 99.9 percent say the new OC at IUP is Frank Cignetti Jr.

Not gonna say I told you so, but ...
Larry Wilson is the new OC at Clarion.
Which, of course, means the OC job at IUP is "open"
Use "open" very loosely.
