I have a hard time believing this but it seems that we are heading towards doing everything right in our three job searches.

I agree Dasher, except Carp is going to bring us back to the Big East haha

I wish we could do it just for Basketball and ACC for the rest

Maybe JW didn't write it. Or authorize it.

Ai baby

The best use case for AI that I've found so far is for corporate bullsh.

Wait, you mean to tell me the basketballs season is still going on?

I kid, but nothing else worth talking about except our future.

Yes, these were posts in the past. I was poking around to see what public opinion was of her in the past.
3 years ago:

"Pitt needs to do everything in their power to keep her"​

"Heather Lyke was the university’s best athletic hire in half a century. No one has had the impact she has. We should be lucky to have it."​

"Louis Riddick said something at the Kickoff Luncheon about some good news in the future (paraphrasing) for the team. I hope it’s a contract extension for Heather Lyke."​

This was after she was fired

"What a mistake to let her go. I don’t know her but from the outside looking it she seemed to have done a great job with Pitt Athletics"​

After her contract extension in 2016:

"It says a lot about her that most fans are really happy with this news. She's done really well."​

"Pitt fans how do you feel about this?"​

"Stoked. She's killed it, especially the last few months."​

"I'm ecstatic. ... Combined with all these moves she's made in only 13 months and rumors that Michigan State wanted to poach her, I think this was really prudent move by our administration."​

"Very happy. She has a great attitude and a lot of ambition."​

"This is great. Since she arrived, the football program has finally been willing to pay for good assistants, and the basketball program did a 180 in it's coaching situation. Firing our women's basketball coach, who was pretty popular locally, showed that reputation alone isn't an excuse for failure, and that all of our teams are expected to win. I love everything she has done so far."​

People on here gassed up the Autry hire too

I like to think our freaking out prevented a disaster of a hire
