Silver linings from a rocky week 9: 4* wideout Freddy Spragan has informed Coach Johns that he's coming to town this summer! #RZH2P 🔵🟡

On top of that, we got two more! We've received verbal commitments from 3-star DT Alfonso Labelle and 3-star HB John Gay! #RZH2P 🔵🟡

We ain't done yet! It's a party on Fifth Ave, as we got some recruiting news hot off the press! Just a week after his verbal commitment, HB De'Jon Ramesh is locked in! #RZH2P 🔵🟡

Player of the Game went to SR Edge Jimmy Scott, who despite only finishing with 2 tackles, was responsible for a fumble recovery TD and a pick 6 that helped shut out the game. Congrats to Jimmy! #POTG

Coach Johns on preparing for the season:

"We're hard at work. A lot of coaches and teams too focused on their image, not enough on the game, that's why the ACC has the reputation it does now. We here at Pittsburgh are here to play football, we don't got time for the theatrics."

[RZ Pittsburgh Panthers @CoachIJ_RZ]
