I've always really liked Curtis Martin. It looks like he could still play.

Tony Dorsett looks like a mere shell of himself.

Wonder why Dan Marino wasn't there?

Who says he wasn't? That's just one picture and there are eight Pitt Panthers in the HOF.

He wasn’t there in the picture provided. The answer may be he was getting a hot dog. But he wasn’t there in the picture.

I believe Smash was referring to not being there at the "reunion", instead of not being there in the picture. That picture was from the 2022 Hall of Fame week last August. There were lots of players not in that picture. I'm pretty Marino was there that week.

And you asked “Who said he wasn’t”. I say he wasn’t there in the picture. I’m not sure why he wasn’t. Are you saying he was there that night and was excluded from the picture from some reason? It still is an Excellent question. Is there a pic of all 9 Pitt HOFers floating around?

Speaking of Pitt Panther legends …

My dad was a Hugh Green fan & was hoping the Saints drafted him.

Luckily they chose the correct LB (Rickey J) one round later.

Hugh was a good one but he was no Jackson 😛.

The picture is from Aug 2022, FWIW.

Keep shaking. Maybe some sense will fall into place.

Nice picture.

Good to see Tony smiling. He's displayed symptoms (anger, short/long-term memory loss) of CTE for years now.

All of those concussions :(.

My problem is you making statements like…

“ I have faith you'll figure it out eventually.”

and

“Who said he wasn’t?”

Then shaking your damn head when others respond in kind. You act like you aren’t part of the instigation. You use inflammatory rhetoric as much as I do.

Rickey's accomplishment is special. He's my age. I covered covered NC State's game against Pitt in the Tangerine bowl back in 1978 when I worked for the paper. He must have been injured or something that year because he has no stats. I remember it so well because all the photographers and writers from NCSU went to Disney World (perhaps a little under the influence) and we kicked their butts in the game.

There is no quit in that man . Way to finish what you started. He is truly inspirational. You go Rickey!

“I was so close to it that it made no sense to not get it,” he said, describing his return to finish his degree.
