Pitt makes top six of Atlanta recruit Sedarius McConnell

Georgia has become an increasingly important recruiting territory for Pitt. In 2019, Pitt landed its first Georgia recruit of the Pat Narduzzi era in walk-on running back Paris Brown. The Pitt coaching staff then added three recruits from the Peach State to its 2020 class, and now, it wants to maintain its momentum, as it has 31 offers out to 2021 recruits in Georgia. On Friday night, Sedarius McConnell, one of those 31 recruits, placed Pitt in his top six.

The 6’2”, 259-pound defensive end out of Westlake High School in Atlanta drew 11 offers over the course of his recruitment, and his other finalists include Kansas, Louisville, Minnesota, Vanderbilt and Wake Forest.
