Dior Johnson commits to Pitt
- Thread starter Vader_Storm
- Start date
Heard we are recruiting his brother Christian Dior. He makes alot of SCENTS 😂🤣😅
Who cares. If Armando Bacot wanted to commit to Pitt would you care what Hugley thinks?
Right, was being sarcastic but I know it was hard to tell through print. LOL. I'm glad he appears to be coming here!
Dior backed up by Eliot
Cummings backed up by Mc Neiily
Burton backed up by Nike
I don't know how this got done but this is the best Capel has on paper put together yet. Can we get these guys to play together? If so, season might just be kind of exciting!
I think when Dior is off the floor, you’ll see one of Nelly or Burton assume the primary ballhandling duties, and they’ll fill in the 2 and 3 from there. No different than your starting right tackle also being your primary backup at left tackle.
If anyone’s a “true” backup PG that doesn’t include guys starting elsewhere, it’d probably be McNeilly.
Let's hope he's not a Revolving Dior! (see what I did there) 🤣 🏀 🤣 🏀 🤣 🏀
If he sticks around better get your tx because this guy is a highlight reel!
H2P and Welcome to Pitt Mr Johnson!!

Here is a nice write up from ESPN. Dior cites Coach Capel as a coach who will challenge him. This could be a big deal for Coach Capel if he can keep him and he excels!

I have a hard time believing that a kid that has bounced around as much as him is looking for a challenge, but at the very least this wont be boring. High risk, high reward
There might be a teeny tiny bit of momentum building right now.
Can’t say Capel is not pulling out the stops
You bet. Carrington next.
Yup. Best case scenario he helps Pitt a bunch of games. Worst case the team implodes and we’re in the same spot we’ve been waiting for Capel to get canned.
Bacot would have no interest in facing Hugley in practice...
I'm aware it's a hypothetical example but still..
I understand if you don’t want to put the kid’s business out here, but generally, what is the baggage w this kid
FWIW, Nelly commented on Dior’s commitment post saying “it’s up gang 😈” and they traded follows last night. Nelly was sharing posts from other people last night talking about how good a backcourt of Dior and Nelly would be.
I think he’s on board.
Building cohesion early, Nelly leading by example. Already liking it!
Hats off to Chapel for his work this off season. I will hold a tip of the cap until we see team play, court chemistry, solid player development, and on court/off court character. In this age of coaching, keeping a full roster happy is tough.
Two months ago, some who appear now to be role players, realistically thought they would play starters minutes. But, winning should take care of most of that problem.

Lol. Bacot is much, much better and went against pretty damn good competition in his AAU practices on team loaded 17U 3 years ago. It was just him, Oscar, Isaiah Todd and Dave McCormack going against each other every day… doubt he’s scared of John Hugley because he played better one game
