On Monday, Pitt earned its first commitment of the transfer season as Florida State transfer Cam Corhen committed to Pitt.
Corhen is a 6-foot-10 forward who played the past two seasons for FSU. The Allen, Texas native started 33 games in his Seminole career, and despite a small decrease in minutes per game this past season, he increased his scoring production as a sophomore. This year, Corhen scored 9.4 points per game on 63% from the field.
Last year against the Panthers, Corhen exploded for a career-high 25 points and eight rebounds, going 8 for 12 from the field and 9 of 10 from the free-throw line. He led the Seminoles in rebounding in eight separate games last year, and set his career-high with a 12 rebound performance against Georgia Tech in 2023.
Corhen joins the Pitt front court that includes Guillermo Diaz-Graham and Papa Kante. Corhen only attempted two threes this past season, so don’t expect him to be a replacement for Blake Hinson on the wing. However, this commitment is a big-time addition for the Panthers inside.
Corhen was a four-star prospect out of high school, playing for Sunrise Christian (the same school as Hinson). He was ranked as the No. 94 overall player in the 2022 class.
Pitt forwards William Jeffress and Federiko Federiko entered the transfer portal earlier this spring, leaving several open spots inside for the Panthers. Jorge Diaz-Graham will also return from injury next season, and freshman Amdy Ndiaye will join the team from Putnam Science Academy.
