Well, looks like a couple players may have some work ahead of them.
Sources tell PSI that two members of the Pitt football team will be fighting an uphill battle to keep their academic eligibility. Fullback Shane Brooks and wide receiver Mo Williams both will need to score “very well” in the classroom this summer if they hope to be apart of the 2008 team.
The reports about Williams started last week, so this is beginning to look like more than just catching up with some classes.
There’s depth at WR, and with Baldwin coming in this year it isn’t a killer. Still Williams looked great in the spring and was a near-lock on the two-deep. Hopefully this turns out to be slightly exaggerated.
As for Shane Brooks, well for the sake of the APR and his own future he needs to pick it up. From a football standpoint, it means little. Conredge Collins is the starting fullback and redshirt freshman Henry Hynoski is waiting. Brooks, a junior, was never looking at major playing time.
