Don’t think you can do that in college basketball
At last night’s Pitt vs Seton Hall college basketball tilt we witnessed one of the better illegal moves in college basketball. Seton Hall center Gene Teague goes up for a dunk, misses it, the ball pops out and he continues to hold onto the rim while grabbing the rebound and trying to put it back. Teague gets an A+ for creativity, A+ for effort, and F for legality. That type of...

Khem Birch needs to grow up.
So let me get something straight. Khem Birch calls his former Pitt teammates "self-absorbed" but is upset that they didn't respect him because he was an "All-American?" It's all well and good to exceed at the high school level, but once you move up to the college ranks and don a uniform for your new school, none of that matters anymore.Maybe if Birch...
Pitt Basketball: Travon Woodall’s Injury Forces Young Panthers to Grow Up Quick
It’s a case of good news/bad news for Jamie Dixon and the No. 14 Pittsburgh Panthers.
First the good news: The Panthers are starting to look more like a Pitt team.
The defense and rebounding are getting a little more like what we’re used to seeing, and the Panthers have won five straight and currently sit at 7-1.
