UPDATE (12:18 PM)-

Highlights from Pat Narduzzi’s weekly press conference.

Narduzzi on personnell changes: “You might see one or two. I don’t know if it’ll help things. … Had the right players on the field."

Narduzzi on missed tackles: “Some guys make you miss.” Called the sideline tackles the biggest concern. Said alignments were issues, too.

Narduzzi on last UNC drive: “12 of the 17 plays were really good. It only takes 5 to be really bad. We have to find a way to make a play."

Pitt coach Pat Narduzzi on team's confidence after back to back close losses: "our guys haven't lost any of their swag. We'll be fine."

Narduzzi said he expects to have Mike Caprara back this week. Said he could have possibly played, but didn’t want to risk further injury.

Narduzzi said Damar Hamlin is “progressing nicely.” Still no timeline for a return to fully practicing.

** Is Pitt ready to offer a local star from the Class of 2018? I’m told that West Allegheny star athlete Kenny White has been receiving mail lately for Pitt. White (6-0, 183) is a star cornerback for West Allegheny. Keep your eye on him.

** I’m expected to find out tonight if a 4-star athlete will be attending the Pitt/Marshall game. Ohio running back Jarrel White tells me that he’ll know tonight what his plans are for this weekend. White is hoping to make it to Pittsburgh to check out the game.
