Mavric Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 ^^^ If you read the rest of the thread of that Alan Saunders Tweet, it's pretty clear that the "reasoning" given is total speculation and he admits he has no idea what the reasoning is. 2 Quote Link to comment

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 I know Chubba Purdy did camp here a few years back and was said to enjoy it. So, at least he's familiar with he staff and layout. Quote Link to comment

HuskerNation1 Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 At the end of the day points scored are most important for an offense and Pitt was 3rd in the nation. https://www.ncaa.com/stats/football/fbs/current/team/27 5 Quote Link to comment
