Pat Narduzzi: 'I still don't see much respect' for Pitt ahead of Virginia Tech game
Why do you think that is, coach? Maybe it's because there has been no football season, as the term is commonly understood, at Pitt in 2021? Because instead, we're seeing Pickett's Charge, the Kenny-Pickett-NFL-Draft-Season-Long Audition? Your games are played only as part of the Charge. You barnstorm around the small towns of the eastern seaboard--Next stop, for one day only! Blacksburg, Virginia, 3:30 today!--showcasing Kenny, having no running game and unable to stop the other guys from scoring. This is not a team with a quarterback, it's a quarterback with a team. ...
So no, no respect. But on the other hand, however many games you win, Kenny is sure to be drafted higher for the Charge than he would have been without it. In that very limited, very strange sense 2021 will have been a success for Pitt football.
That's all this season was and once his manager left, so did he.
