Wannstedt misses practice because of torn Achilles
Associated Press

Updated: October 17, 2007, 1:12 PM ET
PITTSBURGH -- The latest addition to Pitt's already long injury list is coach Dave Wannstedt.

Wannstedt missed practice Tuesday after tearing his left Achilles tendon earlier in the day, requiring surgery that took place several hours after he was hurt.

The injury may prevent Wannstedt from being on the sideline Saturday for No. 23 Cincinnati's game at Pitt. The Panthers (2-4) have lost four straight games. Wannstedt may coach the game from the press box.

Pitt has had a long string of injuries that began when wide receiver Derek Kinder, the team's top returning offensive player, badly injured a knee on the first day of contact work during preseason camp. Kinder is sitting out the season.

Starting quarterback Bill Stull injured a thumb in the Sept. 1 season opener and has yet to return.

Wannstedt, a former Pitt offensive linemen, coached the Chicago Bears and Miami Dolphins before being hired by Pitt in December 2004. He has a 13-16 record.

Never fear, as long as Paul Rhoads is the defensive coordinator, your pick is safe.

Wanny plans to coach from the press box. He'll still be in charge, so Cincinnati will have no problem.

I might be wrong, but I thought I heard someone say that he blew out his achilles tendon IN the press box! I hope that is false because that would be pathetic.

The problem with that is that Wannstedt will still be making decisions. Pitt would be better without him. 03-banghead
