New Commit

No. Tenn is talked about because it runs a Veer and Shoot. Part of that is their tempo. So of course that will be part of the discussion. But that’s not the only thing talked about. Their unique splits are talked about just as much, and actually are unseen in almost all of college football.

But tempo isn’t unique. At least Duke, SMU, UNC, and Wake just in the ACC will run some form of tempo. Either get plays snapped as fast as possible (SMU being the extreme of that) or at least get lined up as fast as possible, and then either snap it or look to the coach to call a play based on what alignment the quick tempo forced the defense to get in.

But I’m still not sure what your point was? Assuming tempo is unique in P4 football, it require a unique QB trait that other P4 coaches aren’t looking for because they don’t run tempo? If that was what you were getting at, what is the trait?

You can get solid depth in the portal. The portal is a good place to get college ready bodies. So guys that, weight and muscle wise, at least belong on the field.

It’s a horrible place to land high end talent though, unless you’re going to spend a ton of money. Pitt isn’t landing Jordan Addison in the portal because by the time he’s available in the portal, he’s already become Jordan Addison.
And there isn’t a ton of high end talent anyway. 247 rated only 38 players with even a 93+ college ranking. Which is another reason why what talent there is, is so expensive.

High school recruiting is even more important to Pitt compared to an Ole Miss, because special seasons require Kenny Pickett type talents. And Pitt can’t just buy 5* college rated Walter Nolan in the portal.

Any highschool kid that can start right away is out of Pitt’s price range

The reality is Pitt is limited to finding under the radar kids developing them and hoping they will stick around. That and the transfer portal for a kid like the one from Bama who was buried on the depth chart

I just got around to watching his Hudl video, and he looks like a pretty good player on a bad team. He's constantly running for his life, and he's pretty darn good at scrambling, making plays on the run, and taking off.

Good size, good arm, and really good wheels. He will get more interest.

Ludwig: Pitt Has Hidden Gem in QB Commit Mason Heintschel

It would be easy to point to Mason Heintschel as an underwhelming commitment. He isn’t a four-star recruit with a ton of Power Four offers; he’s a two-star, according to Rivals, and Pitt was his only Power Four offer. I get it. I still think he’s going to be a really nice pickup. Heintschel — […]
