Big Time Recruit.

 

[Gunga_Galunga]

Solid get, he'll end up as a guard. Might make a good center if he can learn the position.

 

[MajorMajors]

Welcome to Pitt! Will be rooting for JK to have an excellent college career both on and off the field.

Go Pitt.

 

[ThePanthers]

Welcome!

 

[PantherO]

Great get! Welcome aboard Jake!

 

[pitt2533]

Really nice pick up. Kid has lots of potential.

 

[Revenge Of The Noise]

Good stuff

no such thing as a "get" until' he is signed...

 

[Swervin27]

huge pick up. very happy.. welcome aboard.. kind of hoping he stays on Offense, as a guard.. but I reserve the right to change my mind on that at least 14 times by this time next year.. regardless, huge pickup..

 

[thebadby2]

Nice local get. Always good to get the big fellas. Keep em coming.

 

[Jpripper88]

Really hard to tell with the OL, but this kid seems like the real deal and had a lot of staffs convinced, so the signs certainly point to this being a big get.

 

[Saboteur]

Not everyone wants to attend school in a mountain valley far away from the rest of the world where common sense is uncommon, adults dodge responsibilities, DAs vanish from the face of the earth without a trace and your "brothers" torture you for half a day then erase the evidence in a fashion that would make Joseph Goebles proud.
As inviting as that may sound to some, to others it is the nation's largest insane asylum.
Welcome to Pitt and thank goodness your parents raised you with a sense of humility, compassion and good sense.

Really hard to tell with the OL, but this kid seems like the real deal and had a lot of staffs convinced, so the signs certainly point to this being a big get.

Word is he is being looked at as a DT with the flexibility to play OL if that's where the need is. Looks to be athletic at his size, and pretty lean as well.

 

[sherepower]

Gotta luv ......out of all his offers. We beat out a lot of successful programs for his services. Which means A LOT more than stars. In my opinion all day every day!

Now lets get 18 more like him

 

[crharris8892]

Havent seen the videos but is he fast enough for DE? Seems perfect size for it, but speed is the deal breaker.

Nah. If he plays defense he'll be a 300 LB run-stuffing SOB nose tackle.

 

[Gunga_Galunga]

Its DT or OG. I think he looks much better at guard.

 

[crharris8892]

I think OSU wanted him at OG but have much better options there for the moment. He'll have a much better opportunity here at Pitt regardless. The offers he has does speak to his upside ability.

Reminds me when Biz committed!

Nice! Saw the kid last year play and was very impressed I just assumed he was headed to ND lol

I love when the talent stays home !

Nice commit to get. I like how we seem to get one of the top local kids early each year

 

[VAPITTALUM]

He and Blake Z. have been commenting on each other's status quite a bit; getting both of these guys would be excellent for the future OL and DL units.
