I don’t want to say outstanding yet, but it sure looks like it is going to be Coach Wannstedt’s finest recruiting class from the perspective of talent across the board.

Jameel Poteat made the call  — credit to Bryan at PittScript for being all over the news — and of course it was Pitt.

It is now expected that Terrell Chestnut will make Pitt his choice when he announces tomorrow. Kind of nice when things are going as expected with recruits.

With the NCAA enforcement paying attention to social media as a way to find out who could be violating rules, Greg Romeus’ name is somewhere in the midst of the burgeoning agent scandal.

Greg Romeus attended San Francisco 49ers running back Frank Gore’s South Beach party in May, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the situation told NFL Insider Aaron Wilson.

Romeus is from nearby Coral Springs, Fla., so it’s plausible that the NFL draft prospect could have arranged for his own transportation to the pool party at Gore’s residence.

We’re told that Romeus is prepared for any inquiries about how he came to be at the party.

The story notes that reports state that Romeus has denied to Pitt officials and coaches that he was even in Florida. Hopefully this is true.

If the NCAA starts sniffing around him, he had better be honest about things even if he attended. Last year Dez Bryant for Texas Tech Oklahoma St. had his career ended because of lying to investigators. Not for actually meeting with Deon Sanders. It’s always the cover-up that makes things worse.

Romeus is poised to be a first round pick regardless of this. It will, however, effect a lot of other things.

Romeus is one of the seniors on the squad and a face of Pitt football this year.

The Big East exposure continues on Friday as Pittsburgh hits the Bristol campus.

Coach Dave Wannstedt, running back Dion Lewis and defensive end Greg Romeus will appear in spots on the “Mike and Mike Show,” “College Football Live,” “The Scott Van Pelt Show” and ESPNews.

Romeus has also been named to the watchlist for the Allstate Insurance and American Football Coaches Association’s Good Works Team.

Some of you have noticed the new Yardbarker menu at the top of the site. Obviously this is something new.

I’ve linked Pitt Blather into the Yardbarker eco system. The site and content is still entirely mine. They have no editorial say in the site. Yardbarker gets to syndicates the content, gets credit for my traffic and can sell ad space on my site — of which I get a cut.

I am no longer writing/editing at FanHouse for AOL. Things had been changing there for the last year, and I no longer felt that I was a part of the direction the site was going. I’m proud of being part of it from the beginning, and there are  people there who I respect and like, but it was time for me to leave.

Leaving, though, means some lost income and the end of a gig. I got the FanHouse opportunity through Pitt Blather, so it makes sense to put my work here to good use and focus once more.

Being on network like Yardbarker (hopefully) will provide more promotion for the site and other opportunities. Yardbarker seemed like the best network to join. In addition to the size and the affiliation with FoxSports and MSN, one of my former editors at FanHouse is now a part of Yardbarker. So there is some level of familiarity and trust.

Yardbarker does not have access any of your e-mail addresses, personal info and what not. The only differences you should expect to see are some ads and that menu at the top.

The only other change right now is that I converted my netbook to Linux based Ubnutu. I’m struggling to get the wireless connection back, so if anyone has any experience or knowledge they can share, that would be great.
