Landing the twins should have changed prospects for completing the roster for the better because---
1. It makes a winning season (OOC + ACC combined) appear possible and perhaps even probable. Capel & Co. can sell that possibility now.
2. Capel can even suggest based on 1 that he may no longer be a lame duck.
3. The corrolary to the above is that other teams have a weaker position in arguing the opposite in their sales pitch to recruits Pitt is also recruiting.
4. Finally, in this era when anyone can transfer at will, recruits don't need to worry about being stuck at Pitt (or any school) if things don't work out as they had hoped.
So, filling the roster from this point with players who can be a positive should be likely.
Have to wait and see of course.
Personally, just want Pitt to again be a winner and don't care whether it is under Capel or someone else.
