Those are some no name schools we are competing against. Sounds like we are getting desperate at this point.

If Corny allows Toussant back on the team with a scholarship then I won?t buy tickets. That will tell me all I need to know about CJ as a head coach.

It's about finding your place and fit. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and hope he's found a home for a season. Welcome to The Herd!

Certainly quiet on the western front.  I stopped by the basketball office earlier in the week and all the coaches were in a closed door meeting.  I asked some of the administrative staff when RF was going to be announced and was told "soon."  They were having some recruits in this weekend, but there were to be no work outs as are players are out until June.

We need talent and depth on both the OL and DL.  I'm sure the coaches are happy to have him.  I hope he contributes more at Marshall than he did at Illinois.  Given our struggles on OL and losses on the DL, I'm sure it will not be hard for him to crack the 2 deep somewhere besides special teams.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if he doesn't even play much here; maybe a support player; hope I'm wrong because I suspect there is NIL money involved.

But hey, I'm not impressed that much by someone who Portalled (new word) to UI from an FCS school, now back to G5 from a P5 school.

Oh God this isn't even close... Pitts is a top 5-7 PG in Herd history in my opinion, maybe even a little higher. He was REALLY REALLY good. And has had/still having a really solid professional career in various foreign leagues.

A person I know grew up playing with steph curry and pitts until college.  He said until then everyone in the Charlotte area viewed pitts as the better player. 

Pitts avg 16.2 ppg junior year.  Most shot attempts he ever took in a game that season was 15.  Usually he avg about 12 shots a game.  In DD shoot from anywhere anytime offense he would avg 25ppg.  And the competition levels between Pitts and Taylor eras.  Pitts in a landslide.

Agree didn?t shoot much - scored when needed - much tougher competition - better team on - played defense - passed the ball.

Pitts was way better
