Just what to know if he's still on the market?Understand that, but you were also bitching that Pitt hired him.

Most QCs would jump at a full-time opportunity, though Patton can probably be a bit more selective.
Unfortunately for you, we already have an OL coach.
Or Larry Fitzgerald or Darrelle Revis or LeSean McCoy or Aaron Donald or James Conner or Dion Lewis.........Wanny. That's all you need to know about the recent past

No need for anybody on either side to get parochial and defensive about things. I don't know anything about Bates but hope for the best. Good luck going forward.
I guess some folks do feel the need to be parochial. Good for you.Wait, is the main goal of college football programs to function as a minor league affiliate for NFL teams? Now I get it, all this time i thought the goal was to generate outstanding student athletes who compete to win on and off the field. Silly me.
So let's get this straight:I guess some folks do feel the need to be parochial. Good for you.

Parochial? Maybe you need to look up the definition of the word. I am not the one claiming superiority in college football based on how many of my university’s players have matriculated to the NFL. Talk about a narrow and myopic view of what constitutes a successful college football program.
When it's all they have and they're in denial, people play what they have. Makes them feel better in a very strange sort of way ... even as they are making ignorant fools of themselves. I wish Randy all the best. But seriously, the best days of Pitt football are decades behind us. And there is nothing going forward that looks promising for the Panthers.
Gotta give them this much. Their list of individual all time greats is really, really good. Very competitive with those from any other school I can think of.
GOUNUII
I wonder how many graduated with a BA or BS degree from Pitt. When I was at Pitt, grad rates were among the worst in D1 college football. Really bad! Hopefully, things have improved in the past 20 years.
He started at Pitt 40 years ago. He graduated 20 years ago.20 years? I though you graduated from Pitt 40 years ago.

Nothing against Pitt (I live in Pa., after all), but you've had a couple of trollers come over to our board and give us disrespect. I've been over to the Pitt board and made a couple of positive posts about Bates. I'm frankly surprised by the number of posters over there who seem to think Bates is some kind of minor-league hire. If you don't understand the disparagement of Pitt, I'm equally puzzled that Pitt fans apparently have almost zero knowledge of what goes on at NU. I guess we tend to follow our own teams and leagues to the exclusion of all others. We're used to being ignored at NU, where we've just had one of the greatest backs in the history of NCAA football (Justin Jackson) who will graduate with little publicity at the national level.
Revis, Fitzgerald, Arron Donald, Shady McCoy , Tyler Boyd, all within the past 10 years.......just sayinYes, you have a long and storied history whose feats we can only aspire to meet one day. So does Army and the U of Chicago.
Where the two programs are today is a different story, as evidenced by the outcome of our last meeting and results of this most recent season. Let's just say that Pitt isn't the source of inspiration for us in terms of where we want to get to. Nothing against Pitt, and good luck next year in football.
