If they become unavailable for the game Saturday, no Street and Graham make this game significantly easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish21 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 If we weren't going to stomp these guys already, we almost certainly will now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleJoe Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 "The players were not arrested but will receive summonses requiring their appearance at a Jan. 9 preliminary court hearing, the newspaper reported." Likely statement to come Friday from Pitt Athletic Department: "Since they're not actually in jail, expect them to be on the field Saturday ... GO PANTHERS!"

OklahomaIrish Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 If this happened at Notre Dame they sure wouldn't be on the field. We don't need any help to win this game, but everything is going our way this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you smaster! Never had the chance to make it back until now but what better timing?! I was sitting at work on Sunday still ecstatic from the Oklahoma game and I thought, why the hell not! I'm going to soak in all the memories of this trip! Best part is I'm taking my younger brother with me, this is something we will remember forever.

If they become unavailable for the game Saturday, no Street and Graham make this game significantly easier. If they play then there is something wrong with the coach and the school. Nearly any other program would have them suspended for the game, if not the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilhelmD Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 You know, of course, if they do not play, it will be one more reason for the haters to say that a ND victory is really not a big deal. They can already say that because Pitt is 4-4 but now . . . not that I am advocating they should play, mind you, just speculating what the 'pundits' (ala Mark May) will say . . . "Of course, ND won, their three best players were not on the field because had they been on the field, Pitt would have . . ." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lou says "If you talk to your players and tell them to leave their gang mentality at home, they'd stay out of trouble." But, you are correct, that would be the only reason ND beats Pitt because their three best players are awaiting jail sentences.......
