Friday's show: Steelers-Bengals prediction, Mike Tomlin's history of handling Mason Rudolph, Sergei Murashov's coming to the Penguins at the wrong time, Sidney Crosby's frustration, and more.

Pitt fans who want Pat Narduzzi fired are going to be disappointed, because they'll blame this lost season on Heintschel's injury, and his return next year will be used by the school to justify bringing Narduzzi back.

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

Pitt's season was toast the minute Mason Heintschel got hurt, they would've beaten UNC, BC, and FSU, if he were available, only loss would've been to Miami, lost season.

So they may postpone college football games tomorrow because there's an outage so big, that they can't fly the planes, yikes.

RG3 to be interviewed for Baylor HC job, the era of NIL coaching hires/interviews, what's next, Ben Roethlisberger coaching Miami (OH)?

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

Should've traded a 4th and a 5th like KC did to get Downs instead of suggesting getting guys like this.

[Dom DiTommaso @DomDiTommaso]

Could Antonio Brown's cousin be of interest to the Steelers???

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

@BreidenFehoko It's the era of NIL coaching hires, schools like Colorado and NC State hire Deion and Rivers because those schools think they can buy players based on those guys being the coach, it's the same way with Belichick at UNC, and Vick at Norfolk State.

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

@Douglas79336459 It started when he benched him for Duck in '19, and it continued in 2022 when there was a predetermined QB competition when Mason Rudolph was the best QB in that preseason, and after had Kenny Pickett ahead of him on the depth chart before the playoff game against Buffalo.

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

I'm glad Tomlin defended Mason Rudolph in 2020 after the Myles Garrett incident, but going on Cam Heyward's podcast and saying what he did confirms he didn't like him.

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

Macklin Celebrini is the closest thing to being the next Sidney Crosby.

@DomDiTommaso Probably because they go right into Christmas too early with how commercialized it is that you tend to forget Thanksgiving.

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

How does Mason Rudolph feel about his former coach saying he has a punchable face, and a current teammate laughing at it?

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

I don't like this response at all.

[Andrew Fillipponi @ThePoniExpress]

Mike Tomlin on the Myles Garrett-Mason Rudolph helmet assault: “Mason Rudolph had a very punchable face.”

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

I'd give Sergei Murashov another start Saturday against Ottawa, he's performed well his last two starts, definitely last night, and his confidence will get higher the more you play him.

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

Sad and shocked to hear this news, a great broadcaster, condolences to his family, RIP.

Dan Hicks, longtime lead golf play-by-play announcer for NBC Sports, has died following an acute illness. He was 64.

Across three decades, Hicks provided the soundtrack to some of golf’s most memorable moments. The Arizona native joined NBC in 1992 and assumed the network’s lead play-by-play role in 2000, his broadcast style defined by a steady delivery, unmistakable enthusiasm, and ability to capture the significance of a moment.

Hicks anchored weekend coverage of The Players Championship for nearly three decades and was behind the microphone for the evolution of the FedExCup, in addition to several major championships, bringing his composed approach to golf’s biggest stages. 

For nearly two decades, Hicks worked alongside renowned analyst Johnny Miller in one of golf television’s defining broadcast partnerships. Hicks provided a measured presence, guiding viewers through the tension and unpredictability of a final round.

After graduating from the University of Arizona, Hicks began his broadcasting career in local radio and television before joining CNN in 1989. He moved to NBC Sports three years later, with assignments including Olympic swimming, alpine skiing and Notre Dame football. Golf, one of his favorite recreational pastimes, became an enduring beat. His voice will always be synonymous with the game.

Hicks is survived by his wife, sports broadcaster Hannah Storm, and their three daughters. 

Rest in Peace, Dan Hicks.

Won't happen.

Jeff Passan says the Pirates need to re-sign Brandon Lowe ahead of the lockout.

And when Passan speaks, people listen.

[Matthew Kilkeary @Matt_Kilkeary]

If Evgeni Malkin feels he can still play, he should, but it shouldn't be with the Penguins beyond this year, Kyle Dubas needs to have that tough and uncomfortable conversation.
