With Bye Week, the Pitt Football Coaches Hit The Recruiting Trail
With a number of key players playing through injuries or out of the lineup, the bye week is coming at a perfect time for the Pitt Panthers.
Following Saturday’s important win over Virginia Tech, Pat Narduzzi’s squad is off until they return to action on October 22 against Louisville.
Until they return to the practice field next week, the Pitt coaches have an important job this week as they hit the recruiting trail across the country.
A lot of the time will be spent visiting players that have already given their commitment to Pitt. While some might not think this is a big deal, that’s not the case.
A verbal commitment is just that, talk, and nothing becomes official until December. As we see every year, crazy things happen in recruiting, so Pitt coaches need to keep solidifying their relationship with their current Class of 2023 and make sure the pen hits the paper in a couple of months.
Pittsburgh Sports Now has attempted to reach out to a number of recruits, including the 19 commitments in Pitt’s Class of 2023.
Here’s what we’ve learned and keep in mind that we’ll continue to add to this list as we hear back from more players.
