-Almost set. Jeter is basically a Pitt lock, and Wade is leaning. Just need a big time MLB. Losing David Adams hurt. Pitt defense looks bright folks. Talent coming in, more talent than we have had in a long ass time.

No doubt the Duzz is loading it up! Only weakness may be speed at the outside backer positions.
I hope we can keep our O-line strong and pick up some top talent at RB and WR. I am really excited about the caliber of recruit that Narduzzi is attracting to Pitt!
 
How about the 2 deep? When is the last time we had depth like this?

DE - Patrick Jones
DT - Rashad Wheeler
DT - Zack Williams
DE - Zack Gilbert

LB - Kenny Robinson
LB - Anthony McKee
LB - Saleem Brightwell

CB - Therran Coleman
S - Phil Campbell
S - Jay Stocker
CB - Henry Miller

Then we have that 4* stud in George Hill who also may play on the defensive side of the ball.
 
this coming 2017 class will add to the level of competition and development in two years. I expect the recruiting and development to be key. If they get two years out of Hendrix, I think that is a positive. Outside of a couple of DL and DB's this class will mostly be in the development stage. If Pitt has a very good QB in 2017, that is the year Pitt will be talented enough to do some damage. Pitt losses Price, the linebackers and Webb. On offense DJ and Biz and possibly Connor and the QB.
 
I won't be surprised if Pugh moves to MLB as early as his true sophomore year. Then goes pro after his Junior year/ACC championship!
 
Are we talking Playoff good? Or make a run at the Coastal good? Would like to know everyone's opinion. Or are we still a few more years from really hiking our standards?

-That defense above has the talent to be lights out dominant. That will be the best secondary in the entire country by a landslide. Whitehead-Ford-Wade-Hamlin, opposing teams are going to need a bigger helmet because all 4 of these guys are massive hitters and play with swagger like the old school Miami teams of the 80's that put fear in opposing teams before stepping onto the field. That defense is easily playoff good. Obviously the offense has a lot of future questions, QB, WR, TE, but the defense will be there with Jeter, Wade, and 1 more dominant LB. Im not ready to make that type of prediction yet because of the offense, but we need to lock in Jeter and Wade first.

-This is the type of stuff you are going to see on defense with Hamlin. Ford is filthy, and Wade is right behind.


 
A friend of mine said Paris Ford made an All American team. He is a stud and our best recruiter.

-He made it. With ease. 6 pick 6's for TD's, 6 forced fumbles, 3 resulting in TD's all on defense. Absolutely lethal at WR, home run threat, ankle breaker, Kick and Punt returns, and can burn you at RB with 4.4 speed. He's the most complete recruit in the entire recruiting class.
 
The train is definitely moving in the right direction. All hands on board.
