Great OL coach. Unsure about as HC.
Will give him a chance (might as well, it's happening without anyone consulting with me.)
Color me a little 'underwhelmed' at the moment.

I think most of us are "whelmed" at this point.

We didn't get Kiffin and every other coach we were interested in responded like we had AIDS.

We have to take who we can get and hope he can pull it off at this point.

I’m stoked AF. I mentioned his name right after Morris was fired. I think he can recruit like a boss and he will have all hands on deck hitting the ground running.

Prepare to become relevant again boys.

I think Pittman has been the here all along. Remember when those players were tweeting how great a hire it was? Well their all tweeting again congratulating him.

Are you fricking serious beebe? Our AD screwed up. It’s ok to admit that.

Cracks me up how everyone harps not to trust the local media during searches because they never know anything, then as soon as a hire is made that people don't want all of a sudden everything the media has said up to this point is gospel.

Because we didn't get the flashy name you assume the AD screwed up?

Believing everything you read on the internet and assuming could never go wrong

Exactly.

frick the media, they suck. Clearly Irwin was in the loop though because he and Pittman are close or whatever.

WelL if it’s true, guess you’ll just have to be a big boy and deal with it.

There was no one left. He’s the best given the situation at this juncture.

Chaney is good until the opponent has the lead for over two possessions. He mind fricks himself into calling retarded plays. We're not in a position to be demanding the best coaches and it sucks. Broncos mendenhall is a rebuilding specialist and only makes 3.5 mil. I don't see why we didnt offer him 5 million. If Pittman flops the program is officially over.

Any idea why there's no press conference yet? Still waiting on assistant staff to be assembled?

Agree.

If the HC contract is structured like was rumored for Kiffin, Pittman can go out and hire the best available.

No, we’ll just continue to be where we already are. We’ve been one of the worst teams on college football for several years now.
