UPDATE (7:14 AM)-
**As our Harry Psaros reported first late last night, Pat Narduzzi was in New Jersey last night for an in-home visit with DE Kaymar Mimes. This visit follows Mimes official visit to Pitt this past weekend. As I mentioned yesterday, if Mimes was the “silent commitment”, would Narduzzi be making an at-home visit already? I’m really starting to think that Mimes wasn’t the player that committed on Sunday.
UPDATE (7:06 AM)-
**As we reported last night, OC Shawn Watson will be visiting with Rice OT grad transfer Calvin Anderson. We hope to find out later today if Anderson will make an official visit to Pitt.
