Pitt fully in 'camp mode' as first week of practice reaches conclusion

One week nearly down, three more to go.

Pat Narduzzi and his Pitt Panthers are wrapping up their first week of fall camp, with Friday being the final media viewing window of the week. Soon, the Panthers will get into pants and full pads for a full-steam-ahead approach in preparation for the season opener on Sept. 1. The team will be at full strength, in the sense that summer semester final exams wrap up this week, and some players that may have had to divert to class will be fully focused on football.

"Our kids have been juggling academics and football practice through camp here to this point," Narduzzi said.
