Excellent article on Pitt for Sal & Coolhand

[SelectionSunday]

I know Sal & Coolhand are fond of Pitt and its toughness. This feature sums up the Panthers very well.

Pitt will again be one of my favorite teams follow. Fields and Blair are fun to watch and Sam Young is likely to be a Big East first teamer. When Dixon first got the job I thought here is a guy who might be over his head, no way will they be as good on D as Howland's teams. Boy was I wrong. If I were an AD in AZ, JD would be on my SL. (thats short list)

Thanks for posting that SS, as you said it sums up the Panthers very well. Sam Young's ball fake is a thing of beauty and one of the primary things from college basketball I'll miss seeing this season. I'm hoping Pitt can make a deep run this year in the NCAA tourney, they're due and deserving.
