Dave Wannstedt, beloved in Chicago, received a three year contract extension at Pitt. Why? His stellar record, of course. During his three seasons as head coach at Pitt, his teams have gone 5-6, 6-6, and 4-7, for a combined 15-19. This after going 39-23 with 5 bowl appearances during the previous 5 years under Walt Harris. Wannstedt's tenure has been marked by losing and bizarre, un-defendable game decisions. And it seems like he fits in with the Pitt administration, which inexplicably also today hired Steve Pederson. Yes, the same Steve Pederson who was just fired by Nebraska immediately after giving Bill Callahan a 3 year contract extension. Whereupon Callahan was fired, to be replaced by Bo Pellini who shoulda woulda coulda got Callhan's job in the first place. Uhhhhh.....I hope this is making sense to someone!
And the Bowl selections are starting to roll in. Penn State will play in the Alamo and Wiscy will play in the Outback. Tune in to the Pitt (lol) and Mizzou games to see if OSU can back into a miracle and play in the title game.
