Amazing the secrecy on this, still out for tomorrow's game.

I have absolutely NO inside knowledge so I'm not betraying any trust by making a SWAG.
a month ago, i wondered if maybe elliott's old hs coach (now hc at tolly's old school, trying to build the program) was getting into his ear a little bit about PT. but that doesn't look like it, based on his bench antics. my new guess is that elliott's hoverboard burst into flames and is coping with the ptsd and learning how to use his legs for transportation again.

Or maybe I missed the boat entirely on this.

Re: Pitts
He does get the best seat in the house to watch the games, so has that going for him. Same with the walk ons.
If it is mental health issues, he is at the age where the symptoms become more apparent.

I would shut him down for the year and apply for a medical redshirt. If of course, it is medical related.

It's a relief he isn't pregnant.

it's sensitive and could be damaging. im not trying to hold anything over anyone's head but sometimes not sharing is better than sharing.billk78 wrote:97's clues are making me more confused haha

I'll take it down if you think it's damaging. I will anyway. But you'll need to zap the one where you quote me.Harvey Specter wrote:If it is what I think it is...

When you do, I'll zap this.
In the meantime, we're just a bunch of goofs on the Internet, Mr. Pitts.

Re: Pitts
Perhaps this thread is better off being locked?
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:

Re: Pitts
I think Pitts pretty much knows his role and future with the team. He's bright enough enough to see it without being told.
He has not scored more than 4 points in the 7 games he played this year, and has not scored more than 8 points in the last 20 or so games last season.
You can't have a 2/3 wing player out there who can't score, especially when Trier has picked up his defense.

Re: Pitts
I hope he overcomes whatever challenge he is facing and manages to complete his studies and graduate. That's more important than trying to rush back and play again. The team seems like it will be fine even if he is done for the year.HiCat wrote:I hope the kid comes back. He's been a part of the team and could be a big factor come March/ April.

Re: Pitts
Let me know if anyone has an issue with locking this. From public and private notes I've received, it seems to be the consensus that no good can come from any further speculation.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Re: Pitts
I don't really see the reason to do so, it's just usual message board fodder, but it won't hurt anybody to lock it either.Chicat wrote:Any objections to locking it and then reopening when news comes along?Merkin wrote:Let us all agree then not to speculate, and just leave this open for any news about Pitts.

Re: Pitts
There are reasons the speculation could become a negative so I'm going to go ahead and lock it. If anyone has a compelling reason it should be unlocked, please PM me.
