Examining Pitt’s 2019 Scholarship Offers

Published

on

Pitt has offered plenty of players from the class of 2019 but to this point the Panthers have secured no verbal commitments.

Is this something to be concerned about?

No, not really. Pitt isn’t a program that gets many players to commit early. June is historically the first big month for Pitt to begin securing commitments.

Pat Narduzzi has secured 18 commitments in June in his last 3 recruiting classes.

2018: 6 Verbal Commitments 

2017: 7 Verbal Commitments

2017: 5 Verbal Commitments

The Pitt staff has extended over 170 scholarships to high school juniors. PSN looked at which states have the most offered players by Pitt and the results might surprise you.

The thing that stands out Is that Pitt has extended nearly as many offers to players in Michigan and Georgia as they have in Pennsylvania. It is far less surprising that Florida is again the state that Pitt has extended the most offers.

Here is a state-by-state breakdown of Pitt’s 170+ offers:

Florida: 47 offers

Ohio: 23 offers

Pennsylvania: 16 offers

Michigan: 14 offers

Georgia: 13 offers

New Jersey: 13 offers 

Maryland: 11 offers 

California: 7 offers 

Virginia: 5 offers 

Connecticut: 4 offers 

Washington DC: 4 offers 

North Carolina: 3 offers

Kentucky: 3 offers

Texas 2, Alabama 2, South Carolina 1, Tennessee 1, Indiana 1, Minnesota 1, Rhode Island, Delaware 1, West Virginia 1, New York 1, Hawaii 1, Louisiana 1

The main question now is how soon Pitt’s first commitment will come?

I believe they’ll get one before the month of April ends and it will come from a state that Pitt doesn’t usually get many commitments from.
