Pitt wants WVU in the ACC
- Thread starter Pitt5593
- Start date
That never happened.
When the Big East started falling apart everyone was stabbing everyone in the back
I may be on an island here, but Id rather WVU do whats best for the university and not make a move soley based on renewing old rivalries. ACC would be a significant revenue loss for WVU, it would also be lesser competition. However, the BIGTEN WVU would make approx $20Million more then we do now, and our transportation costs would also reduce, and the competition would be far better. ACC has notably been some of the worst Strength of Schedules in the country for the past X years, it would virtually be a Big East 2.0
Id much rather play a BigTen schedule, and fill in our Out of Conference schedule with a couple ACC rivals.

Pitt and WVU are on good terms.
Is that why your new basketball coach wanted out of the trip to Morgantown this December?
Big 10 forget that is not an option wasting your breath on.
And VT as well. I do know some German Club peeps that pushed hard for the rivalry to start back up.
Whitt publicly mentioned he wanted the series to go for many years in all sports. PITT said the same thing.
Guaranteed sell outs, except for @Pitt, but could change.
Look ACC is bad. Huge separation between Clemson and….. I guess UNC?
However they need programs that can play. Clemson can only hang on for so long and Dabo will be the next coach at Bama.
It’s going to be hard to be relevent to SEC regardless if B12 combines with Pac12, BIG takes B12 teams etc….
That’s just not true Allen and you know that. Pitt admin and WVU stood arm and when BC, VT and Miami left Big East. Obviously Pitt had no power when it was time to add Ville.
Not really. There were only a few schools the ACC were interested in. WVU wasn’t one of them.
Wonder what happened in the I got your back you got mine next thing you Pitt is in ACC and WVU is being sued.
Only believe about 10 percent of what the 'insider' bitch gregor says.
You are connecting wrong dots. Any talk of Pitt stabbing WVU in back is literally silly. If you’re blaming Pitt you‘re head is in the wrong place.
You sound too much like TVZ. Everyone knows Pitt would sell their souls to have WVU sports to curl up and die.
Add some topic content value for once you POS. You’re like the worst troll ever. You think you’re a WVU fan but can’t discuss anything related to WVU or sports. You seriously need your ass beat. Hopefully you open up you stupid mouth in a Morgantown bar and a legit WVU fan gives you a fat lip.
HAHA. thats like saying John Nash couldnt solve your 3rd graders Math homework, John Conway didnt understand complexities, or Bill Clinton didnt inhale.
Im obviously not that guy. I’m telling you Allen there are people at Pitt not looking for WVU demise. Let it shake out. The end game may be a surprise to you.

By your grammar I highly doubt you know anyone at Pitt
But continue this charade because it is funny
Your response doesnt even apply. How is anything in that post "homerism"? Its fact, except my hope to play in BigTen, because monetarily that is whats best for WVU.
If I was a real homer, I would want WVU to play a shit schedule, an easier path to more wins... OR play opponents close by so I can go to games... That is Homerism...
ACC Strength of Schedules are Shit and have been shit for years now..
ACC would be approx a $6Mill PayCut for WVU
BIGTEN would be approx $20Mill Current Pay Raise ($26Mill compared to ACC)
BIGTEN would be a higher level of competition, far tougher schedule compared to a hypothetical ACC schedule.
I get how Pitt fans in this forum want to renew the rivalry, honestly, I could give a shit about "who we use to play", I want WVU to do whatever is best for the long term program health... To look forward, not backward. Personally, this is not directed at you or Pitt, but I find the ACC incredibly boring brand of football. Im not alone in that perspective either. While we probably join the ACC, our boosters will have to step up to make up for the reduction in revenues.

Look...worked in Pittsburgh with lots of Pitt grads. Most follow and support the Mountaineers as well as the Panthers. Have you ever been out of your neighborhood...WV...or to Pittsburgh? Really dumb statement.
So it probably would be a good idea to get rid of Pitt and replaced them with WVU.
Not losing anything because Pitt fans support both schools
I’ll let the ACC know
