Recruiting Things

Filed under: Football,Recruiting — Chas @ 2:07 pm

Okay, the ESPN.com/Scouts, Inc. Automated recruiting rankings (Insider subs) now has Pitt listed as #29 recruiting class. I guess the key word is “automated.” I was taking a look at ESPNU’s college signing day show, and the ticker listed Pitt as having the #17 class. So, apparently the classes as ranked by the guy in charge of Scouts, Inc., Tom Luginbill, decides a little more. His top-25 classes going into signing day is what ESPNU uses (Penn State was listed as 20, WVU at 29 — w/o Devine).

Still nothing from the final three verbals: Jordan Gibbs, Sherod Murdock and Tony Tucker.

Glad that Jabaal Sheard chose Pitt. The more help on the D-line the better.

Interesting little story about a preferred or recruited walk-on QB coming to Pitt. Strikes me as a future coach somewhere. At the very least he could end up being the place kick holder.





Tucker signed today on ESPNU. Murdock also signed. Gaskins still hasn’t been cleared to sign.

Thanks, Have to wait on Gaskins, so the day is done and what a day it was! Congratulations to the Pitt coaching staff on an excellent class.

At 2:50 pm Rivals reported all 24 signed. Terriffic finish to a great looking class.

Clean Sweep! DW targeted recruits and pretty much got the ones he wanted – at the very least quality at the need positions, if not the first choice.

I’ve a feeling that we’ll see a very young lineup on the field this year, with DW realizing that he needs to get more speed in the lineup. Sophs, Red Shirted Freshman and true Freshman.

Now we keep our fingers crossed for McCoy, and others, to remain eligible and be able to play right away.
