Paul Zeise’s chat yesterday featured a question focused on tomorrow’s game against the Town of George.
slr: What does Pitt need to do to shut down Georgetown?
Paul Zeise: Well I think Georgetown does a pretty good job of shutting itself down. I mean the real question to me is what do the Hoyas have to do to shut down Pitt? I watched Georgetown the other night score 52 points in a loss to Villanova. They are not a very good offensive team and frankly i think they take one of their best players, Roy Hibbert, completely out of the equation with the offense they run. That Princeton style is great when you have a lot of players of similar skills — but when you have a talented 7-footer like Hibbert, you need to come up with ways to get him the ball more in a position he can score. They don’t do a good job of it and I think it is a reason they’ve struggled. There is just something missing with that team on offense and I think it is that the system doesn’t fit the talent.
I just figured we’d be able to get some Rollabannas behind the basket they’re shooting at. That would definitely distract them and shut them down. Just remember folks, let your Rollabanna whip itself back into scroll form when the Panthers are shooting.
Sweats? Really? Couldn’t even pimp for a warm-up suit?
GO PITT TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best part of the Game Day broadcast was the sign I saw near the end of it. It read: “Chuck Norris wears Sam Young’s pajamas!”
And my other favorite was, of course, “Save the Pens”.
Levon has to contribute at least 8 points with 5 plus rebounds.
A few key fb recruits will be at the game, hopefully they come away impressed and give big dave a warm and fuzzy.
