While we're still trying to sort out the 2017-18 roster, Pitt basketball coach Kevin Stallings added a key player for 2018. On Thursday night, the Panthers added 6'9" power forward/center Bryce Golden.
Golden is a 247 four-star composite recruit out of Sharpsburg, Maryland and reportedly had offers from several quality programs, including Maryland, North Carolina State, Clemson, and Xavier. He just visited with Pitt earlier this week. ESPN has him as a four-star recruit while Rivals and Scout both peg him as a three-star player.
While Scout only gives him three stars, they also have him as a top 80 player for 2018, slotting him as the 79th best recruit overall back in their March rankings.
