Looks like Pitt is looking to add some depth to the secondary and perhaps find someone else to return punts in 2010 (okay, I think it’s a given someone else will be returning puntis in 2010).

The newest commit is Saheed Imoru, who had the grades to be offered  a commission to West Point back in 2008, but decided that he would go to junior college and see if he could get better offers for 1-A football. Oklahoma State nearly offered him last year, but never pulled the trigger.

“My high school coach talked to me about how many people apply and how few are accepted to West Point,” he said. “But I just didn’t feel like it was the right opportunity for me. It wasn’t what I was dreaming of for my future. When I made the decision not to go, my coach wasn’t very happy with me. I understood, but it just wasn’t right for me.”

So late in the recruiting period, Imoru’s opportunities began to dwindle. Navarro called and he signed on, but to play cornerback and not his natural position of running back. Ironically, it was Imoru’s decision to make the switch. And he made it with a unique outlook about the future.

Rivals.com has him as a 3-star cornerback with offers from Iowa State and New Mexico.

Not much else on him. There’s this grainy 10-minute highlight reel from high school if you are so inclined.

Imoru doesn’t seem like a bad get from what little I can see. High character, and is the only JUCO to this point in the Pitt recruiting class. Won’t exactly move the needle on the recruiting rankings but he seems like a player that has the potential to help right away.
