Would be a nice addition on the outside, big physical WR 6’2” 225. Last year 42 catches 559 yds and 7tds. Looks like our new WR coach is using his contacts from DMV area. Will be eligible next year as a grad transfer.
 
Yep would take them both. OL help is always needed. Jackson is visiting OSU and Oklahoma so lots of comp.

I like the toughness and love the blocking of Mathews but having Kumah and Mack on the outside with Ffrench in the slot would make us better.
 
Coaches know their teams and what guys are not happy with PT or guys who may want to move on etc. Happens everywhere.

Most guys can see the depth chart and realize what their chances are.

I'm all for getting guys out who don't want to be here. I'm all for getting guy to grad transfer when you have nobody.

I think it's stupid to bring in a grad transfer for depth purposes. That's not just this guy, but also the michigan ol, the blocking the etc.

I'd rather take a shot a lower ranked kid you can develop in 2-3 years. Just not a fan of grad transfers who have low ceilings.

Kumah would at worst be our 3rd best receiver. Why would we not want to add him? The OL from Michigan probably stinks but Kumah has talent.

Cause you only get 1 year out of him and push back the development of younger kids. I'm not as worried about getting to 8 wins next year as I am about developing a program that develops kids into players.

LOL. Yea.....because our fanbase is patient and willing to wait it out for 2-3 years. That is pretty funny. We need to win now.

PN knows he needs to win now or he may not have...down the line. Don’t you want to win now?

We can get a talented WR who would really help but you question this SMH.

And I guess you think the OSU & OK have no clue cause they want the OL bad.

I don't really care how many wins they get next year. I want them to recruit better and stockpile the team with talent out the ass. I'm not happy with 6-8 wins. He needs to focus more on the class of '20 and do the best with what he has on the roster now. 1 year of this kid isn't going to make a long term difference.

Go big or go home.

I believe he would have to sit out due to ACC intraconference transfer rules.
 
When his name popped up I wanted to post about him, was impressed with him last year at Heinz. But didn't think there was even a chance with all the WR we have he would be looking here. Curious now wondering if Tipton, Matthews, Butler-Jenkins or someone is on there way out.
 
He has visits scheduled to Texas Tech, Notre Dame, and Penn State.

I have no idea if we will get him or let alone even a visit. Just passing along his tweet.

ND & PSU schools who always get top talent want him but according to Bird80 we shouldn’t go after him lol.

Some problems with this theory. Kumah is one of vtechs better players and would be for us too. He also has 2 years left. VTs situation is anything but normal. Its not guys transferring because they are buried on the depth chart.

Pitt has plenty of kids that are/were development projects but when you look down the roster, you see there are positions that need competition and depth badly. You sort of answered your own question.

What have you seen from the Pitt coaching staff that says they can develop anyone. They might as well try kids from another school that were maybe taught the right way.
