PITT introduced Wisconsin offensive coordinator Paul Chryst as the school's new head coach this afternoon at a 3:00 p.m. press conference today.
Chryst handled himself extremely well in his inductory press conference and fans will love this quote from Chryst, a complete "360" from Todd Graham. "It's really shallow if you announce what you're going to do, " Chryst said..... There were no high octane references this time around.
Chryst met with the PITT football team at 10:15 a.m and he's made a strong impression with the team and majority of incoming recruits who for now are sticking together.
"I stand here and it's an exciting day, " Chryst said. "It's a humbling day." Chryst is a coach who Pitt officials are comfortable with in that he wants to be here for the long-term, compared to Florida International's Mario Cristobal who's biggest downfall with the committee is that they weren't sold on him being a long-term coach. "This is a destination job for me, " Chryst said.
The biggest complement Chryst's way is that he's a players coach and that he adapts extremely well to his personnel.
