Pitt FB Recruiting
Three-Star OT Kyle Fugedi Commits To Pitt
For the second time in as many days, a Class of 2021 recruit that was previously committed to a MAC program has committed to Pitt.
Three-star offensive tackle Kyle Fugedi decided Monday night, after de-committing from Miami (Ohio) a few days ago, that he was accepting Pat Narduzzi’s offer and joining the Panthers.

Fugedi became the 22nd player in Pitt’s Class of 2021 and becomes the fifth and possibly sixth offensive line prospect in this recruiting class. That number will be known once it’s determined what position Trey Andersen will play, tight end or offensive tackle.
Fugedi (6’6”, 295) had been committed to March but dropped that pledge on November 27, a week after receiving the offer from Dave Borbely and Pitt.
It’s interesting that Fugedi becomes Pitt’s third commitment this year from Michigan, with the other two also linemen, Terrence Enos and Brandon Honorable.
Fugedi plans on signing his Letter of Intent in December but will not be enrolling early.
With 22 commitments, Pitt still has ability to take three more before February.
I see we are back to competing against MAC teams for recruits
The last two signings do absolutely nothing for this program. Would have be great gets for Duquesne not Pitt. Narduzzi is about as smart as a 2×4. Anybody dumb enough to run Vincent Davis out every week should be coaching a team like Shaler.
Again I hope the kid makes it. He has size you can’t teach. It’s easy to be negative about anything. This team desperately needs OLine help. Let’s hope he develops into part of that solution I will be rooting for him to make the most of this opportunity. H2P!
I think this coaching staff has shown they have been able to spot talent even if the number of stars aren’t what we would prefer. Here’s hoping that is the case with this kid.
I guess that is one way to look at it. That thinking seems to apply to DL and LB. Not so much at OL and TE.
