Winning a title is never easy - in any sport, in any division. For all the abuse the Coastal Division of the ACC Conference takes, it happens to be a very solid and competitively balanced group of teams. The truth is there is a lot of parity in college football right now except for maybe 5-10 teams. For Pitt, the secret of its success has been player development. Even recruiting has been a bit sub-par for the Panthers compared to its peers.

Its tough being a head coach. Nobody signs up for the job without knowing the consequences. The scrutiny is intense. Men or women's sports. Especially at a Power 5 school. Pitt hoops has vastly underperformed for the past 4 years. The new coaching hires of Jeff Capel (Men) and Lance White (Women) in March and April of 2018 respectively have really struggled to progress even the slightest from their predecessors (Kevin Stallings and Suzie McConnell-Serio respectively).

In 2023, you can't understate how good of a culture the Pitt football team has when guys return to use their one free COVID season of extra eligibility. The Panthers seem quite well stocked on offense with a mixture of talent and experience either returning or transferring in while the defense too has quite a few talented players joining the roster, despite being inexperienced for the most part.
