Gibbs Declares For NBA Draft
Posted on 29 Mar 2011 by Justin Welton.
Ashton Gibbs, the Panthers leading scorer (16.7 ppg), declared for the NBA Draft today but didn’t hire an agent. Gibbs has been a great perimeter player in the Panthers system who has worked hard on his skills. He came into the program with just an outside game. He has worked on his mid-range game and driving to the basket in his tenure. His mid-range game has improved greatly since his fresh...

The Reasons Why Pitt Can’t Get It Done
Posted on 21 Mar 2011 by Justin Welton.
What is wrong with the Pittsburgh program? Is it Jamie Dixon and his inability to motivate in an elimination tournament? Is it the fact that he isn’t the greatest in-game coach? What about the talent of the players? All of these have a bit of truth in them. Pitt was the prohibited favorite to make it out of the Southeastern bracket. People (including me) thought that this was the year they w...

While Pittsburgh shot 57% from the field, hit 6 3 pointers and outrebounded ...

Is This The Year?
Posted on 15 Mar 2011 by Justin Welton.
I have said all year long that this is the best chance for Pitt to make the Final Four. They have veteran leadership with Brad Wanamaker, Gilbert Brown and Gary McGhee. Throw in the fact that Ashton Gibbs and Nasir Robinson have multiple experiences in the tournament, and you have one of the more experienced teams in the field. The field is the weakest that I can remember. The top five teams ar...

Panthers Win Big East Regular Season Title
Posted on 6 Mar 2011 by Justin Welton.
Villanova has never won at the Petersen Events Center and that trend continued on Saturday. Pittsburgh (27-4, 15-3 Big East) won the Big East regular season championship outright on a day where they celebrated four seniors on senior day. It wasn’t brilliant, flashy or even fun to watch, but it was how the Panthers win games. They out-rebounded the Wildcats 30-22, which is what they are know...

St. Johns Recieved Home Cooking?
Posted on 20 Feb 2011 by Justin Welton.
I am not the one that usually blames officials for any type of loss, but this game is different. Dwight Hardy scored the game-winning basket on a drive past Panthers defender Gilbert Brown. Both of his feet appeared to be out of bounds, but the referee was right there to make a call, but he decided not to blow the whistle. The game was decided by free throws throughout the whole second half. I ...

Panthers Are Consistently Disrespected
Posted on 14 Feb 2011 by Justin Welton.
First of all, I want to state that if I had a vote for the rankings my top five would be like this: Kansas Pittsburgh Ohio State Texas Duke The only real question in my mind was between Pittsburgh and Ohio State, but when you lose a game I believe you should drop more than one spot, so two spots is sufficient. I heard a lot of experts this week talk about Texas being the best team in the coun...
