Akok 'Cuse/Pitt Visits

[BackAftaThis]

He had planned it that way from the beginning.
Akok Akok cuts list to five, sets official visits

Point taken. Still find it odd. You lose so much of the social element seeing a school on a weekday.

Yes, but still odd. Tells me Pitt isn't a serious contender.

He clearly wants to get this over with so that he can commit to UConn already

He clearly wants to greet Kofi next weekend with a heartfelt handshake and half/chest bump.

If you had a chance to avoid a Pitt football game, wouldn't you seize it?

We should not throw stones to ANY other football program, FCS included.

Yeah not TOO sure we can talk on that front

Probably want to commit at midnight madness this friday @ putnam.

Better to see a Pitt football game than a Pitt basketball game. No recruit should be subjected to watch a 8-24 (0-18) basketball team.

So that's the thing he has this weekend and then games start for him. Thus the weekday.

Their board features a 32-page thread obsessing over the Boneyard which dates back over a year. If their school and program are so vastly superior to ours, why spend so much time and bandwidth on us?

32 pages because they don't have good pizza.

Lots of reasons for that. Just Google “What’s the most polluted lake in the US”. Onondaga Lake in downtown Cuse baby. At one point they were dumping 20 lbs of Mercury a day into the lake along with millions of pounds of raw sewage per year. No fish can live it because of the toxins. Just living near it smelled so bad people couldn’t keep windows open. Why people consciously choose to live there I’ll never know.

There WERE lots of jobs at Carrier, Honeywell and its predecessors, GE and many others. I recall one area, north and west of downtown I believe, where there were very large factory buildings with massive parking lots that were about 10-20 percent full in the late 70's. I'm fairly certain the lots are not any more full of cars today.
Found this article indicting the Syracuse economy and life there. Deindustrialization and unemployment in Syracuse, New York
Also this article about Onondaga Lake. Onondaga Lake – The Most Polluted Lake In America
Maybe Syracuse is the right moniker.

It’s the damned curriculum review and class orientation. Miller where are you Glenn? We need UConn ‘s favorite son.

If football was a consideration none of these schools would have been visited.

Fast forward me to the weekend plz

Onondaga Lake makes Syracuse sound like desolate cities in Siberia.

LOL - Every 18 year old recruit’s dream for their OV - class catalogs and various scheduling options. Design your dream class schedule.

Is anyone playing the lotto DOUBLE PLAY this weekend?

Now you're just messing with us.

That’s how we’re gonna get pooched in PITT. They knew this was the dangling carrot. Not tradition or NBA futures but efficient class planning.

Omg, two frontcourt 5 stars committing back to back? I can hardly believe our good fortune. What a turnaround in just 8 short months. Just amazing what Hurley is doing.

Could we change the title to Pitt OV?
