Tony Wise, now a former New York Jets employee, was the favorite and front-runner to get the offensive line coaching job. He’s coached with Dave Wannstedt in the past, and today he was hired.

“Tony Wise brings to Pitt an outstanding record of teaching offensive line play at the highest level,” Wannstedt said. “We started our coaching careers at Pitt together, and I was always continually impressed by both his coaching style and teaching ability. I know he is going to be an immediate asset for our players on and off the field.”

Obviously as a coach, he knows what to do to get players to be successful in the NFL. He coached for so long in the pros that he knows what the good players have and can teach it to his linemen at Pitt. Not only is it good for current players but it should help attract new recruits in the future.

He’s saying all the right things and appears to be enthusiastic about returning to Pitt and the college game. I’m already expecting better results than those of Paul Dunn.





Hopefully the hire of Wise will get us back in the “Jenkins” recruiting game. DW is building a nice group of NFL-savvy coaches which should convince recruits interested in the NFL to come here……

Can anyone tell me where a coach goes to see what coaching jobs are available?? Is there a website or coaches association site that lists jobs. Be curious to see it……….

Let me have that dream for TP. I’ll even settle for a wet one.

Mtoolmn,

You can sometimes find coaching employment listings at ncaa.org. I used to visit that site daily when I was coaching baseball. Usually the site has most of the postings, but I am sure there are some that aren’t advertised.

Jenkins is too late to get… Terrelle seems to be heading to ohio state… Pitt has no shot with either

In three years we are going to look back at this hire and say it was the turning point in PITT football’s success.

(There, how’s that for optomism!)

Tony Wise SUX! He turned the Phins OLine into a turnstile. He’s so bad the JETS didn’t want him back! Thanks Dumbsh!t, you just saved me from dropping $50 on your falling program!!!!!
