Brandin Knight (Sept. 9 entry).

Former Pittsburgh point guard Brandin Knight got his degree this summer.

Knight didn’t leave Pittsburgh early, but like a lot of players with earning potential, he left after his senior season without quite compiling enough credits for his degree. Knight turned pro in the summer of 2003, bouncing from here to there, most recently playing last season for Asheville of the NBDL.

Along the way Knight discovered his earning potential wasn’t quite what he had hoped. He has played exactly three minutes in the NBA, then suffered a broken leg earlier this year at Asheville. Shocking, yes, but Knight discovered that a degree might actually come in handy some day.

After surgery, Knight returned to Pittsburgh to rehabilitate the injury on campus. Since he was there …

Knight took the classes needed to get his degree. He graduated last week.

Brandin Knight may not have been one of the greatest talents to play Pitt basketball. He is, however, one of the all-time greats of Pitt basketball.

He was the point guard for whom many fans still pine. Great distributor, decent 3-point shooter, great defense, made the team better, gritty, gutty. If he could have only hit free throws.
