Watching Pitt play a "home" game at half-full Heinz Field ...

with the faded NFL hashmarks on the field and the empty yellow Steelers seats making up much of the background reminds me of how completely fucked we'd have been had Qwest/CenturyLink Field become the permanent home of the Dawgs as these dipshits (and many more) argued.

Keith Gilbertson and Tyrone Willingham represented the worst of times for Husky Football.

But moving to an NFL stadium absolutely would have been the end.

There'd be maybe 25,000 watching some retread coach struggle to get UW a spot in the New Mexico Bowl.

Eklund and Griswold would be pumping up a recruiting class full of prospects choosing between UW, WSU, Oregon State, Hawaii and Fresno State.

It would have been O-V-E-R — and not one person here at HH would've have given two shits about Husky Football.

And compare to the electric atmosphere last month at Husky Stadium when the Dawgs murdered Stanford and sent David Shaw's program into a tailspin from which they may never recover ...

The Seahawks should have moved to Husky Stadium. Or to Los Angeles.

Fuck the Seahawks.

Pitt 'Minnesotaed' themselves by moving to Steelers Stadium. They did however partially offset such move by also co-locating their practice & strength facilities with the Steelers. That's off campus too, but nearby and a potential selling point to elite recruits with NFL aspirations.

Playing off campus is just tying one hand behind your back, unless the stadium is across the street ala USC.
