Citing unnamed sources, Joe Schad of ESPN.com writes that Michigan State defensive coordinator Pat Narduzzi will become the head coach at the University of Pittsburgh by the end of this week.

Wonder how long he’ll last at Pitt? They haven’t had much luck keeping head coaches there of late. They long for the stability of the Foge Fazio Years.

The deal at second-tier Pitt must be a good one, because Narduzzi claims that it’s a “destination position,” not a stepping-stone he’ll tread upon until something opens up in the mythical first tier.
