Frank Cignetti returns to Pitt as offensive coordinator

PITTSBURGH (AP) Frank Cignetti is ready for a third stint at Pittsburgh.

The Panthers have hired Cignetti as the team's offensive coordinator more than 30 years after he began his coaching career at the school as a graduate assistant and a decade removed from a brief stint as offensive coordinator under former Pitt coach Dave Wannstedt.

The school made the announcement on Friday. The 56-year-old Cignetti replaces Mark Whipple, who left to take the same position at Nebraska.
