Pitt FB Recruiting
Recapping a Big Pitt Recruiting Day with Sweeping Offers in Texas
Like they were last week, members of the Pitt football coaching staff were out on the road recruiting, which resulted in a ton of offers being extended.
Also similar to last week was the fact that a number of players offered were from the state of Texas.
We’ve mentioned this a number of times over the last year but it’s becoming more and more evident that there’s a huge emphasis Pitt is putting on trying to get talent from Texas.
Florida is still Pitt’s top recruiting territory, but Texas is quickly rising into Pitt’s top three or four.
Here’s a recap of the activity that took place on Tuesday:
**Pitt extends an offer to freshman DE/OLB Judah Blair from West Chester Ohio. Blair holds early offers from Maryland, Purdue, Miami of Ohio and Toledo.
