It will probably be a slow couple days on the news front. The local papers only have a couple stories today. One looks at how Pitt exceeded all preseason expectations. The other piece is a bit of a puffer on Krauser going home to play at MSG.
From the Pitt website, the press release about going to the Big East Tournament as the #1 seed. It also reports that Chris Taft won Big East Rookie of the Week honors for the 2nd straight week and 6th time overall. There is no question that he will be Rookie of the Year.
The Big East Tournament Championship site is here. There’s information about bidding on “a special silver anniversary banner autographed by all 12 competing head coaches at the postseason event, plus members of the postseason All-BIG EAST teams.” The all-Big East Team is supposed to be announced later this morning.
