AuroranHusker Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Facilities. Think Bill Byrne already had plans of upgrading the facilities before he left. Most likley whoever became the AD at that time would have done the same thing with the facilities. Byrne didn't do much to directly benefit the football program (the skyboxes seem to help the big donors more than the players). As far as I recall, BB's master plan had a multi-purpose practice arena to the North of Memorial Stadium, and also included a major addition to the East Stadium (which may very well happen down the line). Now, if you're talking baseball & basketball, then BB made very good improvements for the sake of those teams. Quote Link to comment
The Snork Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 The positive(s)? Every AD in the future will seem like the second coming in comparison. Quote Link to comment
Captain K Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 It must be noted that SP did take credit for the '06 VB title upon his return to Pitt...... He was a hell of an outside hitter! Quote Link to comment

np_husker Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 facilities hired Doc Sadler and Connie Yori Quote Link to comment
AuroranHusker Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 facilities hired Doc Sadler and Connie Yori Byrne hired Yori. And Pederson only landed Sadler after Collier decided to be an A.D. (FWIW, I do like both Yori & Sadler.) Quote Link to comment
