Scrimmages yesterday were non-contact drills and no one was hurt. TE Darrell Strong who hurt his knee on Thursday was back without any real problems. He apparently only twisted it.

Cornerback Darrelle Revis is again making noises about playing basketball for Pitt. Somehow, at this point, I doubt it.

A piece today, about Tyler Palko already looking forward to the opening game against Notre Dame.

“I hope the guys still have that sour taste in their mouths from the bowl game and have that kind of chip on their shoulder,” he said. “Especially being on a national stage, we kind of got embarrassed. Every time I step on the football field, I still have that in the back of my mind.”

Which is why Palko is already looking forward to Notre Dame.

Just 5 months to go.

A few player puff pieces today. Dominic Williams gets a second in as many days. This one focuses more on his play with quotes from Offensive Line Coach Paul Dunn. Not as much on his self-discovery that a military academy wasn’t his path.

Freshman Defensive Tackle Craig Bokor, who enrolled at Pitt in January, also spent a semester at a prep military academy. He found the positives in it.

Redshirt Freshman Tyler Tipton is transitioning from fullback to linebacker. This was what he wanted to do. He’s in a depth chart battle with Scot McKillop to see who is behind H.B. Blades.
