NEW YORK
Penn State and Pitt football fans could wait a decade or more until its rivalry is further renewed.
An extension of the storied series might be revisited at some point after 2030, Nittany Lions athletic director Sandy Barbour said Tuesday at Penn State’s first Coaches Caravan stop. But in the short term, relatively speaking, another renewal isn’t in the cards.
This comes just two weeks after Pitt AD Heather Lyke told reporters in the Steel City that she sent Penn State a four-year contract proposal, starting in 2026.
“We’ve had conversations,” Barbour said at The New Yorker Hotel.
