The Morning Pitt Mailbag: 12/19/2025 - The Final Four loss, portal numbers, Heintschel hype and more
Q: Do you foresee Notre Dame leaving the conference in the next year or two?

Q: How do expectations for Mason Heintschel in 2026 compare with other returning Pitt quarterbacks since Dan Marino in 1981?
Heintschel's expectations are likely comparable to Rod Rutherford and Tyler Palko, with high hopes heading into his sophomore year, especially if he performs well in the upcoming bowl game.
The Morning Pitt Mailbag: 12/19/2025 - The Final Four loss, portal numbers, Heintschel hype and more
