For the past few years, Pitt volleyball has delivered exciting matches, big wins, and national recognition. Pitt Football has delivered what feels like hot pokers to the eyes.

And, based on the owner’s moves so far, not much will change on 2026

Mission accomplished

I am in the medical profession and have never before now heard of a “med bed”. Sadly, not surprised to hear that the POTUS presumably believes they exist.

Having options all along the net makes it really hard for the opposition to set a good block. Great to see Bayless really developing this season!

If Pitt plays like they did in Set 5, they can win vs ANY team. Mosher is really getting comfortable with all her hitters and with Fisher's scheme. I like this trajectory!
Sadly, I'll be in Europe for next two weeks & will miss the big SMU rematch at the Pete 😒 Will follow online as best I can.

Starting set 5 on FIRE off Brooke’s serves.

Otherwise stellar night for Babcock marred be her struggles at the service line here late in the match.
Let’s rally, Pitt!

2 middles kills since that Fish timeout. I think I know what he told his team.
