OK, that’s done – can we move on now by firing the drooling dogbaby that is Steve Pederson?

Great, great hire for Pitt. Given all the instability they’ve had, this is the perfect fit for them. As a Badger fan, he’ll be missed in Madison, but this is great for Pitt.

OH! Nevermind. KDKA reports that he WILL coach in the Rose Bowl. Props to him for honoring his commitment.

Good to hear. As a Badger fan, I’m a little bummed that he won’t be coaching for the Rose Bowl.

Nice solid hire. I get the feeling he’ll stick for a while. Cristobal would have used it as a short-term stepping stone. I hope he starts immediately & starts recruiting tonight.

Maybe he’ll break the trend and last longer than 12 months at Pitt.

Wonder if he’ll hire his brother to be OC (current QB coach with the 49ers)?
