and in many instances those complaints were completely justified.
However, KDKA has deemed it news worthy to provide Bricen Garner an opportunity to make his college choice on their prime-time newscast on Thursday, and many folks believe he will choose Pitt. Regardless, I find it disappointing, and somewhat ironic, that some Pitt 'fans' are questioning the appropriateness of this opportunity by KDKA.
As Pitt fans, we should all be elated that a local media outlet is giving one of our offered recruits an opportunity to, hopefully, commit to Pitt, and create some additional positive momentum for our program. A local recruit picking Pitt on KDKA is something all Pitt fans should embrace.
Also, I have seen tweets from Mike V. that suggest this won't be a one-time event for Pitt recruits. This is something that should be celebrated by those of us who are looking for some positive Pitt activity from the local news media, imo.
