I see where '17 BG TE Luke Fredrick will be on the sidelines of the Pitt, Notre Dame game is weekend.
Great to see local kids getting noticed, good luck to this young man.

@PghSportsNow: Penn St loses a 4-star CB Lavert Hill (Detroit, Michigan) just announced he's de-committing
Sounds like he's leaning towards Michigan

Yeah pretty sure everyone knew this was coming since the season started. Pretty sure the Michigan kicker will do the same. They are both Michigan guys.

7 of the 8 kids that made their official visit two weeks ago committed for Pitt. 3 star DE Nebraska commit Quayshon Alexander is the only one that has not.


Pitt is recruiting above their numbers right now, but I imagine some more kids will transfer/leave early.

Clairton ATH Aaron Mathews committed to PSU today over Pitt and Toledo. Mathews also held offers from Maryland, Minnesota, WVU, BC and several MAC schools. This gives PSU a total of 19 commits including 6 of the top 11 in the state. Hamlin, Valentin and Hudson are the 3 biggest in state recruits that have yet to commit to a school.
