Today Fernando Diaz picked Pitt over UConn to be commit number 6. I have to admit that this would be a more exciting get, if the player picking Pitt over UConn was in basketball. Diaz in an offensive guard, though, and building depth on the O-line is a good thing.
Diaz comes in as a 2-star recruit and also ranked #9 overall in New York by Rivals.com.
This is the 3d verbal for a likely O-line player to this point. along with Juantez Hollins and Cory King.
Right now the lines, linebacker and safety seem like the more important spots to build depth. It seems Pitt has depth and talent at QB, RB, FB, WR and CB. Especially with the number of redshirts.
The lines have remained an issue as any injury along them seems to throw everything into a mess. Forcing moves and shifts. Attempts to shore up spots.
What’s that you say…he’s a football player….if so, then in the immortal words or Rosadanna, “Oh, never mind!’
I do like this get, and think he’ll contribute in a few years. He appears to be a solid (not fat) player.
Hail to PITT!
