3cheesenacho Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 We know he went to Pitt but I can't find anywhere what he studied. Was it at all related to management/sports management? I'd be curious to know his GPA as well. Same for the Ryan brothers, the pride and joy of Southwestern Oklahoma State. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanley Lombardi Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) People are often surprised to hear that he majored in Dialectic Philosophy, with a minor in Mime. Edited January 13, 2016 by Blue on Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 He majored in broken dreams with a minor in betrayal. But it wasn't until he began coaching that he learned to punt from the 30 yard line so he's always evolving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

entropyrules Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 My kids went to Upper St Clair (~16 kids with perfect board scores when my oldest graduated)...its certainly in the top 1% of high schools in the country. Got to see Whaley play for the championship all state team there. He's no dummy but I lost a bit of admiration for him when he allowed the Rob Ryan hire. Really, really hoping he knows what he is doing going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 It just amazes me when people think GPA has anything t do with learning anything. Life lessons and other how to succeed lesson aren't part of the GPA and I have found I'd rather hire a bunch of people who had 3.0 GPA versus 4.0 since many of the folks who,had 3.0 lived and experienced college and learned the lessons for life.

Well you obviously don't run a business or manage people because that's the biggest line if self supporting malarkey ever. As someone with extensive experience with college kids, I'll take the high gpa kid over the mediocre "college experience" (see: immature, lazy) kid every time if we're talking entry level. Once you build a career and resume, gpa means nothing more than an indicator of potential drive, motivation, and intelligence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
