Like Sylvester and Tweety the Pitt Men’s basketball team perpetually was tortured by the Louisville Cardinals all Saturday evening. The Panthers must have suffered from an overindulgence of “succotash” as their record dropped to 16…
Busy Week for ALL Let's be honest—it's been a hectic week! We've had College Basketball, the NFL Combine, Spring Training Baseball, and of course, my job. But don't worry, I didn't forget about my Cavaliers! Virginia (14-14, 7-10 ACC) deliv…
Pitt BB report #16 I’d rather watch paint dry than watch Pitt Men’s basketball team continue their poor efforts against ACC opponents at this point. I have seen better efforts out of Pittsburgh Pythons led by Dr. J than the Pant…
Duke (23-3, 15-1 ACC) rolled to an 80-62 victory over Virginia (13-13, 6-9) in ACC action on Monday night in Charlottesville, Va. The Cavaliers showed some fight early, with five lead changes in the first five minutes. However, Virginia cooled off …

OMG! OMG! What a week for the University of Virginia! The Cavaliers put an old-fashioned whipping on the Panthers, dominating Pitt 73-57. UVA came out strong and never let up. Honestly, if you lose to Virginia like that at home, you should automati…
This exercise has shown me once again that I suck at condensing my thoughts so, I’m just going to blurt things out… The Luka/AD trade got all the hype, but the most impactful recent NBA trade is the Spurs addition of De’Aaron Fox…
Pitt BB report #11 If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail! The motto for Pitt Men’s basketball heading into their Monday night tussle. Hell who am I kidding, that wasn’t a tussle that was a blowout victory by a team who has no iden…
