An Exciting Weekend Tapped off by Ejaun Price Joining the Team

This weekend started with the anticipation of the 7 on 7 camp at Pitt but the story of the weekend was the barrage of commitments.

The first commitment came on Friday morning when 6 ft 6" Myles Hillard(DE Bedford, Ohio) gave a verbal commitment.  The 2nd commit came on Friday evening when 6'2 265 Brandyn Cook Center out of Cincinnati's St. Xavier HS. The 3rd commit came Saturday morning when 6'1 175 CB William Parks out of Philadelphia's Germantown HS. And the final commitment came from 6'2 175 WR Trenton Coles from Clairton HS.

While none of these recruits are those "must get" 5 star recruits each of them brings nothing but positives to the table.

Bandyn Cook for instance will be a 3 year starter from one of the best programs in the entire nation. Another benefit is that he is also a shotgun Center, which means he won't have to adjust his game once he plays for Pitt.

Brandyn Cook is a tall CB with tremendous upside. In today's game with WR's getting taller, it helps to get taller and athletic CB's like Brandyn Cook.

Trenton Coles out of Clairton will be able to do a lot of the same things at Pitt that he is currently doing at Clairton IE Bubble, and Tunnel Screens, and Jet Sweeps. Plus Trenton is a speed demon that will help spread the field for the rest of the offense.

Which brings us to Ejuan Price 6'0 235  out of Woodland Hills HS. He was released from his Letter of Intent for Ohio State. Price is ranked in the Top 15 MLB's as a Senior and was also a starter at TE.

It has been a great weekend for those that follows recruiting. But remember we're just a 4th of the way from the class being complete. The bigger names from the south will come in due time. Remember most out of state players won't be able to have Official Visits until September. And Unofficial Visits must be payed by the recruit. This weekend has been the start of something good.
