Learned so much and loved working with Dave from my time in Pittsburgh!

Excellent SID and an even better person. One of the best to ever do it for @CollSportsComm.

Huge shoes to fill for @GoDuquesne.

I just learned a great man and friend, Dave Saba is retiring from @GoDuquesne in August. Sad selfishly for me, but so happy for Dave. He will spend his time watching his girls plays their College Sports! He’s a great man!

Team/School Fun Fact - Duquesne is noted for establishing numerous firsts in collegiate football. Former head coach Elmer Layden is credited with devising the system of hand signals that officials use today. The signal system was put to use for the first time on November 11, 1928, when Duquesne hosted Thiel College at Pitt Stadium. Layden was also the first coach to use two sets of uniform jerseys for home and away contests.

RIP @StanLoveTheShow All class

[Tim Benz @TimBenzPGH]

Stan Savran worked until the very last day he could. If he couldn't host/be on TV, then he'd call in. Just because he wanted to. Because he enjoyed it. Everyday. He really liked talking with every single listener/viewer. Stan, we all loved the show... and everyone loved you.

[Mark Madden @MarkMaddenX]

RIP Stan Savran. Not just a Pittsburgh media icon but a Pittsburgh icon, period. A good friend, true peer and thoroughly good man. It’s a honor to have known& worked with him. “Love the show” will long be remembered. Stan did it right.
