ESPN.com continued its ACC positional rankings today, ranking various units in the conference after spring practices. Up today were offensive line and defensive front sevens and Pitt fared well in both.
The site ranked the Panthers' offensive line first in the entire ACC. Pitt returns four starters from a unit that helped produce a rookie running back that was mostly off the radar when the season began, so it's sort of easy to see why. The Panthers did lose center Artie Rowell, who graduated, but return Jaryd Jones-Smith, who missed all of last season and was projected to be a starter.
