this says it all right here



“On the most recent episode of Bazzy’s Black & Gold Banter, Pitt Panthers head coach Pat Narduzzi made several comments criticizing his ex-offensive coordinator, Mark Whipple. Narduzzi believed that Whipple was too stubborn to run the football and only wanted to throw, regardless of the situation.

“Our old offensive coordinator had no desire to run the ball. Everybody knew it. He was stubborn. Wake Forest was 118th in run defense and we threw the ball every down. When we ran it, we ran it for 10 yards but that wasn’t good enough.”
“The Wake Forest game he mentions was the ACC Championship Game, a game that Pittsburgh won 45-21. When you take a closer look at the stats, you also realize that Pat Narduzzi either has a terrible memory or an ax to grind with his former OC. Pitt did not throw the ball every down and actually ran more than they threw, with the Panther offense finishing with 38 rushing attempts to 34 passing attempts. You’ll also notice that Pitt did not average ten yards a rush but 2.9 yards a carry. So he was only off by seven yards a carry.”

He’s now inserted himself into the Nebraska, USC, Utah, and the North Carolina programs the past year or so by making stupid or insulting statements about them. I think in his mind he sees this as a way of getting himself press attention to benefit Pitt. He’s got a big case of little brother syndrome.

When a recruit chooses a different school, for whatever reason, is it tampering? He may not like that the kid chose a different school because he could get a better NIL deal there but that is on the kid (and Pitt), not the school that offered him. How would he feel about a recruit that flipped to another university because he liked their library better?
