While everyone is (rightly) reflecting on Blake Hinson’s final game at The Pete, I want to make time to thank the only person on this team who been here longer, Will Jeffress.
Will came to Pitt as a four-star prospect with offers to, among others, Baylor. Instead of winning a national championship in his first season, he decided to join a program that hadn’t had a winning record in five seasons.
Will has had his ups and downs, having to develop as a player while overcoming a season-ending injury last year. He’s become a great defender and a solid contributor to our lineup. He’s a big part of us winning 20 games in back-to-back season for the first time in ten years. I sincerely appreciate that he stuck with us through thick and thin, and I thank him for his part in returning Pitt Basketball to where it’s supposed to be! H2P
