TRIBLIVE EXCERPT:
The 6-foot-4, 285-pound junior committed to Pitt after visiting the campus with his mother. “I got a funny feeling (during the campus tour),” said Kradel, who called Pitt the best fit. “I just felt good about it. As the visit went on, I was like, ‘This is the place.' I love coach (Pat) Narduzzi, just the way he coaches and everything. I said, I really feel it here. Once I got to talk to him and told him, it was a done deal right then and there.” Kradel's mother also was impressed by the tour, he said, which focused on the school's campus and academic options...............

Pat Signal: Jake Kradel commits to Pitt

Pitt lands a highly coveted local lineman
by JimHammett@JimHammett May 30, 2017, 8:02pm EDT
............Jake Kradel is a 6’4” 290 pound offensive lineman from Butler, PA. He is graded as a three-star recruit by all four of the major recruiting services. ESPN goes as far as to call him the 15th ranked recruit in the state of Pennsylvania. Kradel chose Pitt over offers from Ohio State, UCLA, Virginia Tech, and Wisconsin most notably. In all, Kradel had 25 division one offers, with most of them coming from power five schools.......Pitt’s class was off to a very slow start, but things look like they can snowball a bit in the coming weeks with visits and prospect camps on the horizon. Landing Kradel is a pretty big deal for this staff. Not only is he a quality player, they were able to beat out national power Ohio State for his services............Landing a player of Kradel’s caliber is a strong win for Pat Narduzzi and his staff.
