Burnett, McGill Enter Transfer Portal

Mick Burnett and Jared McGill, the projected 149 and 174 pound starters for this upcoming season, have been removed from the Pitt Wrestling roster and are intending to transfer to another school. Burnett is to be a redshirt freshman for the 2021-2022 season. He was a promising prospect, with an...

FWIW the story was updated from its original version, removing all references to them being "kicked off" the team and adding a quote from Jared.

Wow. Did not see that previously. Thanks for update. That’s a kick in the pants. Guess Luca may need to go as true frosh.

Broke team rules.

 

[Somerset Panther]

Too bad for McGill. Had a great opportunity at a weight of need. Next.

 

[Chaos]

Broke team rules.

Burnett too, or just McGill?

Both

 

[New York Panther]

Both

If anyone knows, are they willing to say what "Broke team rules" means?

 

[thom67]

Nothing bad if you live in Colorado.

 

[persp]

Worst law out there. That said, they were still under 21, so dont be a moron

Got it:} Thanks.

 

[lucac]

Stupid reason to get kicked off the team in 2021 but you know the rules ahead of time so

Rocco Welsh to Ohio State

Rocco Welsh to Ohio State

That is a huge bummer!!!!

 

[Silkky1982]

No doubt, i’m sure the coaching staff is working diligently but it’s just been crazy how kids are committing so much earlier than normal. That’s why I hope we can land church, kilkeary or equivalent shortly to shore up the 125/133 weights.

Is anyone in the know as to how we are doing with either of the 2 mentioned above? Thanks in advance for your info,

 

[Captainpitt]

Church is not a 125/133 in college. He’s projected 141/149. He’s good but won’t be much help for us in the weights we need. Kilkeary and Nasdeo has to be the staffs targets right now.

 

[Ryno53]

I’m thinking either Pitt or va tech for church. Kilkeary is gaining steam towards Ohio state, welsh commitment article says he is recruiting him to join him which is not a surprise. No inside info just my read/hearing actual insiders. I plan on starting a PA recruiting thread if there is interest

 

[Silkky1982]

I’m in for the recruiting thread, wrestling recruiting is more exciting than football or basketball cause we actually land top recruits, lol.

 

[New York Panther]

I’m in for the recruiting thread

Me too.

100% interested

I am in.

Church to VT. #@&!

I was holding out hope Luca could deliver one of his teammates.

We could see Briar Priest vs. Church several times in the ACC at 141.

Burnett has joined former Panthers Fenton and Newell at Kent State. Not eligible until second semester, for obvious reasons.

Never mind, he is listed on Kent State's roster on Wrestlestat but now he's posting that he's wrestling for Clarion.

 

[Silkky1982]

His brother committed to clarion

I see McGill ended up at Edinboro. Glad to see he was able to land somewhere to continue his college career.
