All 3 were connected to the Steelers tree, and only one loosely connected to the Parcells tree.

So this team started on the path to the Steelers. I don't think Hunt even realizes how far off Pioli's philosophy is from the philosophy Hunt originally envisioned for his team.Hopefully he does now.

The ONLY way to emulate the Steelers is for the owner(s) to be involved on a daily basis.

The Steelers are not run or owned by absentee owners. So until that happens, Clark is just blowing smoke.
