Here are Pat Narduzzi's comments after Tuesday's practice:
https://pittsburgh.rivals.com/news/narduzzi-on-personnel-qbs-and-more
And here are a couple things that stand out to me:
- Narduzzi keeps it quiet about which quarterbacks are ahead, but it's pretty clear to me right now that the depth chart order is like this:
Max Browne
Ben DiNucci
Thomas MacVittie
Kenny Pickett
- I mentioned that I had heard positives about Pickett, and Narduzzi reinforced that:
"Kenny’s done a nice job as a true freshman. Going on the third spring here, maybe the best young quarterback we’ve had. He’s got moxie, he’s got composure, just really good. He’s been well-coached out of high school and he’s come in and he’s really done a lot of good things. He’s sharp."
- Narduzzi had some praise for Tre Tipton, and Shawn Watson echoed those comments.
- Avonte Maddox had three pass breakups in the two-minute drill during Saturday's scrimmage.
- If I take anything away from Narduzzi's comments about Maurice Ffrench, it's that the sophomore from New Jersey is playing this year. Offense, defense or both - he's going to see the field.
