Pitt’s offense always has 11 players on the field, but when one of those players happens to be James Conner, that 11 seems to take on a different form.
Pat Narduzzi couldn’t totally describe it after Pitt’s 56-14 win over Duke, but he knows something happens when Conner is on the field.
“When he’s in the game, it seems to be a little bit different,” Narduzzi said. “He’s got an attitude and he obviously leads by being in the huddle. I asked Coach (Matt) Canada, ‘Is there something different when he’s in there? What’s going on here?’ He just totes the rock and he’s a special person and a special player.”
