Ashton Gibbs was about as stand-up as it gets.

“It’s been a rough season from beginning to end,” Pittsburgh’s senior guard said after the Panthers were knocked out of the Big East tournament by Georgetown on Wednesday. “A lot of it has to do with me not living up to expectations.”

“I didn’t live up to it,” he added. “I did a bad job leading this year and it clearly showed.”

But let’s be honest. It was far more than just Gibbs not performing up to his potential.

“This team lost a lot,” Pittsburgh coach Jamie Dixon said. “We’ve been able to overcome it in the past. We weren’t able to do it this year.”
