Longtime baseball coach Joe Jordano out at Pitt

Some interesting news broke Thursday night in that longtime Pitt baseball coach Joe Jordano and the university have parted ways.

‘Parted ways’ is how it’s generally being reported right now. Several reports state that he was fired while others (including Craig Meyer of the Post-Gazette) state he has resigned. What everyone agrees on, though, is that Jordano is out and it does not seem to be of his own desire.

With 588 victories over 21 seasons, he was the program’s winningest coach and also the longest-tenured coach at Pitt across all sports. Beyond that, he has just been a great ambassador for the program in my eyes.
