Big, big and needed commit. Adam Bisnowaty out of Fox Chapel. A 3- to 4-star offensive tackle has given his verbal to Pitt.
“I thought this was the best thing for me,” said Bisnowaty, who said he chose Pitt over Florida. He paid official visits to both schools in the last two weeks.
He had 14 Division I offers, including Penn State, West Virginia, Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue and Virginia.
“This is great, going to your to hometown team. Being around good people is really what I was looking for.”
Bisnowaty, 6-foot-6, 275 pounds, is a four-star prospect, according to rivals.com. He said he plans to add weight to his long frame, and he already has discussed a training program with Pitt coaches.
“I’m excited to get going,” Bisnowaty said.
Now Scout.com pegged him as a 3-star recruit and the 46th best OT nationally. All other recruiting sites had him a bit higher. Rivals.com, 24/7 Sports and ESPN.com (insider subs) all pegged him at the 4-star level and a top-30 OT.
Regardless of the star issues, the fact that Bisnowaty held offers from Florida, Michigan, Michigan St and a bunch of others should make it clear that he is an upper-level recruit, and a very important commit for Pitt. To say nothing of the obvious need for help on the O-line.
Our offense is struggling now, but I see great things in the future. Voytik should work out, add the speedy WRs of this class, and now an OL to help out. We need more, but we are getting a good foundation. Like TX said, though… getting Shell (and/or Mahone) would be icing on the cake!
I thought and it’s reported Ricketts committed to State Penn??
