Konata Mumpfield selected by Los Angeles Rams in seventh


Konata Mumpfield ended up being the third and final Pitt player drafted this year. Seventh round to the Los Angeles Rams, which is where Louis Riddick was hoping he'd land in a social media post earlier this week. It's a nice landing spot for Mumpfield.

Now we will wait and see where the Pitt players who weren't drafted will sign as UDFAs.

Pitt lands former Western Carolina, Oklahoma QB Cole Gonzales


Pitt has added a veteran quarterback with experience in OC Kade Bell's scheme. Cole Gonzales spent the spring with Oklahoma but re-entered the portal on Thursday and reunited with Bell.

He's a 6-0, 195lb signal caller who operated the offense well at the FCS level and gives the Panthers an experienced option to go with the inexperienced Julian Dugger and Mason Heintschel. The battle for backup will be interesting to watch this summer.
