Pitt Offers 5-Star Generational Talent Baba Oladotun

On the first day that coaches could directly contact players in the Class of 2027, Pitt started with a player at the very top of the list.

Jeff Capel and Pitt extended an offer to 2027 5-star generational talent Baba Oladotun.

Oladotun is 6’10”, small forward from Silver Springs, Maryland and is the consensus top-ranked player in the Class of 2027.

Kentucky was the first school to extended him an offer and since then, Oladotun has received offers from top programs such as Arkansas, BYU, Florida, Indiana Kentucky, LSU, Louisville, Maryland, Oregon, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Texas, UCLA, USA and Villanova.

The NBA comparison that Oladotun receives the most is to current NBA superstar Kevin Durant, it’s ironic since Durant is the sponsor of his AAU team.

Oladotun’s size and skillset allow him to play any position on the court and can also guard anyone on defense. When asked to describe the top parts of his came, Oladotun brings up his ability to shoot the 3 as well as his ability to spread the floor.
