When Can Pitt Expect to Start Getting Commitments for 2019?

In 24 hours, Pat Narduzzi and his coaching staff’s attention will turn to recruiting for their Class of 2019.

The question that Pitt fans will start asking is when will Pitt get their first commitment for 2019?

Although fans won’t want to hear this, history says we’re likely months away from getting that first “Pat Signal.” Unlike a lot of the major programs across the country, like it or not, it just takes Pitt longer to get those first couple of commitments.

To show you evidence of this, here are the dates of the early commitments during the Narduzzi era.
