A little confusing and hectic evening. Kaezon Pugh had stated weeks prior that he would be committing on October 19 — choosing between Pitt, West Virginia and Maryland. Given the firing of Randy Edsall at Maryland, it seemed a given that the choice was down to Pitt or Hoopies.
Pugh’s cousin is Dravon Henry, and plenty of rumors suggested that he really wanted to play alongside him on defense. For the longest time he was considered a WVU lean and an important player for that program as they try to cut a bit more into recruiting the best players from Western PA.
