Apparently Coach Wannstedt talked about the Big East announcing that it will have replay next season. Not surprisingly, for a former NFL coach, he’s in favor of it.

Thursday, Wannstedt backed the Big East’s decision to begin using replay this fall. In the system, which was pioneered two years ago by the Big Ten, the decision on whether or not a call should be reviewed rests solely with an official in the press box.

“This is going to be a lot more coach-friendly than the NFL’s system,” Wannstedt said. “We’re really not going to have any decision in it, and I think that will be good.”

I guess I’m agnostic on the issue. It’s fine to have it, but I’m not thinking of it as one of the burning issues of college football.

In a change for the secondary, they will be playing closer to the receiver and the line. That 8-12 yard cushion they were giving last year should be history.

With all the talk about how Pitt will be running the ball more, it is still unclear who the starter will be. Competition appears to be wide open. Even Freshman Rashad Jennings looks like a possibility.

The Dave Wannstedt Summer Football Camps have been announced. There’s the Little Panther Camp (PDF) for kids 6-11. Then there are camps for everyone else (PDF). The camps take place in June.

Final piece on Pitt’s only likely first day draft pick, Rob Petitti. Just a puff piece about his increasing maturity and becoming an adult. Standard fare.
