Brandin Knight
- Thread starter dpwhite
- Start date
Not sure what to feel about this. Would like him to stay but I’m not going to cry if he leaves.
No offense to any of the assistants on the staff......can any of them be called a success from a recruiting standpoint?
Amazing how other schools are poaching the crap out of our FB and now BB guys and yet we can never build anything.
History has shown that recruiting at Rutgers is very difficult.A Knight departure back to Pitt would be disappointing because that school is at the bottom of the ACC very similar to Rutgers in the B1G.
I agree. I think he is as good as gone. Brandin has to look out for what is best for his career. Tough being the ice cream man in the winter.
If the question is "Who makes the NCAA tournament first, Pitt or Rutgers?" ... Is anybody here taking Rutgers?
Unfortunately I'd have to say Pitt. Watch how fast they rebound from a season nearly as bad as our 2015 and a coach as bad or worse than Eddie Jordan.

I have no idea if he takes it or not. He essentially will have the same job he did for Jamie Dixson three years ago - not exactly moving forward in the career.
And Pitt is in a bad way right now = again he will go if they pay him enough probably
AD Hobbs has money. If we want Knight to stay and money is the deciding factor, we will pay.
Everybody seems way down because we lost Strickland = there's a whole world of Grad transfers, regular transfers, international players, prep school guys and under the radar 2018 guys out there.
Just need more Eugene's and less Souf's in this process

Thank you. A couple posters are just miserable ****s right now. Relax fellas.
This is exactly why people should be down. We are entering Year 3 and we are dependent on grad transfers
At this point in time, yes.
Hopeful Knight sticks with us. Pitt, while a storied program, is a mess and giant rebuild right now.
While I'm sure they could bounce back in 3-4 years I think he's better off grinding at RU and continuing to turn this thing around. His stock could be really high in just 2 more years here.

Step away, Green, step away.
It was interesting how many former Pitt players lobbied for B Knight to be considered for the HC job this time around. Doesn't sound like he got a sniff. Is there a pecking order or ranking of our assistants under Pike? Hobbs seems to have the most experience and Young has been with him the longest period of time. B Knight was the last man brought on to the staff and was quite a pleasant surprise to me when it happened. RU may have to come up with some type of title change and financial bump if they want to keep him since I would imagine Pitt will be aggressive here. I thought I read somewhere that he is making about $300K here. Could that be right? I would expect of the fruits of this staff's labor on the recruiting trail to pay off with the next 4 additions to the team.
Welcome to the 2018 world of college hoops. Almost every program is looking for grad transfers.

It is Greene (Courtney Greene, Ray Rice, Farmer, Inman, Griffin)
Pitt fans wanted Dixon fired because he couldn't get them to a Final 4. Our fans are totally fine with with 3 win B1G seasons. Can't there be some where in between?
Sorry!
...but you’re wrong. NOBODY is “fine” with 3 B1G win seasons, however, Most of us do realize the complete overhaul of the program that had to take place here, along with the difficulties that recruiting here has been, to begin with, for the past 30 years. So as long as we see progress within the program and recruiting, which 95% of us do, I’m not sure what else you could ask for at this time.
You never rest being a fool on here huh?

This is the way I see it.
NJ hometown > Pitt
RU currently > Pitt currently
Also, he left pitt because he was pissed he didn't get the HC job. And I'm sure this go-round he wanted it again. I would imagine that this new coach wanting him to come in as his assistant is like a triple slap in the face.
