A Couple LB Commits

Filed under: Football,Recruiting — Chas @ 5:40 pm

Yes, as earlier noted in comments in the prior post, Brandon Lindsey committed to Pitt from da ‘Quip. Pitt beat out WVU, BC and Michigan State for his services. He is expected to play OLB at Pitt. Scout.com ranks him as a 4-star and 10th best recruit for SLB. Rivals.com puts him at 3-star and #34 at the OLB. They also put him as the 14th best prospect in Pennsylvania (the Pantherlair ranking isn’t too different at #13).

Pitt also received another linebacker commit. Tristan Roberts out of Pennridge in Perkasie, PA (Eastern side 35 miles north of Philly). Roberts is a 2-star by both services, otherwise unranked recruit with some speed at the weakside linebacker spot. Roberts was part of the group visiting Pitt this weekend along with Lindsey and Maurice Williams. I’m guessing the speed he posessed interested Pitt. His only other actual offer to this point was from Bowling Green. UConn, UNC and Rutgers had some interest but no actual offers.

Update: This article on HS football in suburban Philly notes in passing that Tristan Roberts “was a one-man wrecking crew,” for Pennridge. Of course, Roberts was also playing running back as well, so it’s hard to say which side of the ball they are referring.
