The Pomp And Joe Show

Joe Starkey and Paul Zeise talk about the Steelers' era of Kenny Pickett. Should he have been kept? Was he right for wanting to get out? Who do you blame for his decline?

It was a wild weekend in Pittsburgh sports. Kenny Pickett was traded away. Justin Fields was traded for. Pitt missed the tournament. But the main story is Pickett. Joe, Bob, and Paul talk about the Kenny Pickett era, or what is was. 

An ode to Kenny Pickett. It started off great and ended in misery. Where did things go wrong? Shifting the conversation to Russell Wilson, would you be okay with a Russell Wilson extension? 

These are not your typical Steelers. They completely revamped their quarterback room in less than a week. 

The 5 quarterbacks the Steelers have had on their roster the last year, is it possible every other team would not want them besides the Steelers? What is the plan after this year with Russell Wilson and Justin Fields? 

Duquesne basketball is a bigger story in college basketball than Pitt right now. Joe was 11 years old the last time they made the NCAA tournament. Keith Dambrot announced his retirement that will take effect after the NCAA tournament. The guys talk about Duquesne for a bit. Did Pitt get screwed? Did they make a mistake by not accepting their bid to the NIT? A discussion about NET rankings, KenPom, analytics, and why Pitt was more deserving than TCU. 

Caller reactions about Pitt missing the tournament. A listener brings up the point that the tournament may have lost local appeal with Pitt being snubbed. However, with Duquesne being in, the guys argue there still is local appeal. 

Kenny Pickett spoke to the Philadelphia media. A larger discussion about Pickett and the surreal picture of him with an Eagles logo behind him. 

Duquesne Head Coach Keith Dambrot joins the show to talk about his historic run to the NCAA tournament, his retirement, and what he has been through the last few years. Paul asks him if he would be able to sit still to which he does not know. Keith tells us how they got back to the tournament.
