A Patriot League standout.
A Big East backup.
A major-conference forward who hadn’t played organized basketball in two years.
A junior-college center looking for a home late in the recruiting cycle.
A couple of lanky twins from the Canary Islands.
Two returning starters (one of whom would see minimal playing time).
One top returning backup.
Those were the ingredients, and it was anyone’s guess how the soup would taste.
Turns out, Jeff Capel the chef found a recipe that worked so well, Pitt basketball is now having its best season in seven years, sitting in second place in the ACC with one week of regular-season games left to play.
