I happened to flick back to ESPN a few minutes into the halftime report — it’s not like anyone other than VT fans were watching that blowout by that point. They got to the Pontiac Game Changing Performance, and sure enough it was Eric Gill rumbling down the sidelines. They said the final vote was actually much closer than it had been in the morning. Pitt over Michigan St. 35.X% to 33.X%. Mark May seemed quite happy.
For all those who voted, and especially some of you who voted numerous times by continually deleting the voting cookie, we can feel good about this. Pitt’s general scholarship fund received $5000. Naturally it was all about getting scholarship money for the school. It’s not like we were doing this as a point of pride or anything.
