Pitt Races Up the 2020 Recruiting Rankings

Pat Narduzzi has drawn criticism over the last few years from the Pitt fanbase for the programs recruiting classes.

Over the last three seasons, Pitt’s recruiting classes have been ranked: 50th (2019), 36th (2018), and 38th (2017).

Fans want better results and it looks like they could be getting that this season. After incredible recruiting back-to-back weekends, Pitt has soared up the recruiting rankings.

Prior to yesterday’s six-commitment day, Pitt found themselves in the mid-40’s according to Rivals. Thanks to the six commitments, which included three four-star recruits, Pitt has raced up the team recruiting rankings, finding itself in the top 25.
