Stunned. Genuinely stunned. Followed by really, really happy. September can’t roll around fast enough.
Some potential college football news dropped by the Pirates just now: Bucs move their Sept. 8 game vs. Marlins from 7:05 to 1:05 ET "to allow the University of Pittsburgh to schedule its gridiron clash with Penn State University at night."

Two years ago, you may recall the Pittsburgh Pirates refused to even entertain the notion of rescheduling their home game for earlier to allow for an evening game.
Does it help that the Pirates are still trying to generate some positive publicity after an offseason of giving away their best players, going cheap and pleading poverty… again? Probably. Do I care? No.
I’m not sure how AD Heather Lyke did it, I just like it.
It is past time to tell the uncommitted to clean out their lockers. Why is Pitt allowing them to use the facilities while they offer their services to others?
Finish the semester and good-bye and good luck.
