You are getting exactly as much inside info as you are entitled to.

"Spring info" (a term that I'd use loosely) is generally useless because it's so mercurial: the kid who seems to be getting a lot of playing time now might not even smell the field in the fall.

Here is some inside information; I'm sure this is true:

Player X is really looking good. He's picking up the speed of the college game. Really dedicated himself in the weight room the past few months. Is playing with a different attitude, and is starting to make plays in practice. Still needs to refine his knowledge of the playbook to be in the right place every time. Its a work in progress, but the coaches like what they are seeing.

I'm not sure who player X is, but there are probably 20 guys who fit that description. No clue if any of them will play in the fall.

Exactly the type of info. that I'm talking about. . Even if it's just hearsay, opinion, the players talking among themselves, etc. Just need anything outside of what the staff is willing to provide. If they are afraid of burning bridges w/ the staff for future access I understand but this site does kinda suggest that is what they offer for their subscribers(inside info. for the serious fan).
I am sorry if people take this post as an attack at the work ethic competence of our esteemed writers, I think I have more than given them the respect & kudos for job's well done overall on a yearly basis. Why do I get the feeling that some posters take any critique, advice, dissatisfaction etc. as an attack at our editors, writers. I'm just giving them a heads up as to what my opinion is regarding what I look for if 'I'm to re-up to a full time member.

Spring practice is nothing more than a way for the staff to see who is progressing and who is not. You're missing guys that will play, and start, because of injury and some guys are being held out for academics or just need rest. Whatever the case, there is almost nothing coming out of spring practice that you'll find terribly useful.

Alas, you get what you pay for or don't pay for!

 

[Revenge Of The Noise]

I remember when I was last paying actual attention to spring practice ... you'd see guys like Shane Brooks lead the team in rushing or Luke Getsy getting lots of reps and then no sign of them when real games were played.

Then Shelly Anderson would write thrilling exposes on the punters. And how THIS strength and conditioning coach is making a REAL difference THIS time.

This year I'd imagine guys like DiNucci and Motley are seeing a lot of reps. But does anyone figure that will be true in Sept?

 

[ksquared33]

Between 5th & Forbes has offered nothing the last few weeks that does not hit this faction within minutes.
I beg to differ about Spring ball not providing quality insight....I bet every coach would disagree w/ that statement. This time w/ these players(especially the RS Frosh) coming into active duty is w/o equal in their development for the following season.
There is some real shit going down in Spring ball regardless what people want to imply.....kid's are making names for themselves w/ teammates, coaches & most importantly to themselves about how they can play against this level.

Pitt's YouTube channel has about as much information as anywhere. There are several good interviews every few days.

I know the OP is looking for more substantial information, I'm not sure how much of that is available.

I do not know why some of our fans on the Lair dismiss Dennis Briggs. Obviously his maturity, development & experience has allowed the staff to experiment w/ getting Whitehead back at a spot where his speed can be utilized even more.
I thought Briggs has played well in his appearances be it as a 5th DB in Nickel situations or filling in for Jordan while he was hurt. The kid has more than exceeded his H.S. star rating as he is another of our kids who will earn 4 letters by the time his Pitt career is finished.
The kid has maximized his opportunities & continues to progress, work hard & develop. He has shown very good timing & speed on his blitz opportunities, he is very physical & sticks his facemask on the numbers when tackling. Has he made mistakes, not read the play correctly or missed tackles...absolutely, but the kid has been someone who deserves more respect from Panther fans than he has gotten.
I think his progress is a credit hard work & being pushed by the younger athletes the staff has brought in to compete.
