Panther Chronicles: YSU?

Really? Like for real? YSU? The more I think about it, the more I realize that us Pitt fans shouldn't be that shocked about what happened Saturday. They are Pitt. They do things like that. Actually, they do it quite often. The loss doesn't mean the season is over, or that they can't win the conference. It just means they aren't really giving us much of a reason to believe in them. In 2008 they lost to Bowling Green and finished 9-4. That was also the year they finished the season with a loss to Oregon State in the Sun Bowl 0-3. Some people are ready to write off Paul Chryst, but I'm not. Honestly, this team just isnt really good. The defense is pathetic and even though Tino had an "okay" game, he still should not even be playing division 1-A football. Ray Graham playing was a nice surprise, but he obviously isn't near his old self. YSU is a really good FCS team and even before the game I heard that they would be tough from a lot of websites. I'm willing to give Pitt one more chance before I write them off for the season, but It doesn't look good. I also honestly believe if Pitt would've kept Wannstedt, they would have been farther along then they are now. People said it was time for him to go, but he kept the program stable with 8-9 win seasons and bowl games. The program took a step back when Peddy decided to let him "resign" at the end of 2010 season. I think Pitt is going to be rebuilding for a few more years and they shouldn't even be at this point. I can honestly see Pitt having losing seasons for the next 3 years. At least Chryst took the names off the back of the jerseys so the players don't have to have the dishonor of having the fans know who they are and that they play for Pitt. Ugh. This shouldn't even be happening. If the Paul Chryst hire does't pan out, then I only got 1 thing to say: BRING BACK THE STACHE!
