When Kedon Slovis announced his commitment to Pitt back in December, there was plenty of excitement around the program that a talented heir to Kenny Pickett's success had been found. Slovis was a former three-star recruit who played for USC as the Trojans' starting quarterback between 2019-2021.
Slovis burst onto the scene for the Trojans as a freshman who threw 30 touchdown passes, a feat that's only been accomplished by four Pitt quarterbacks in the history of the program. But in the following years, Slovis' production regressed as he only threw 17 touchdowns in 2020 and 11 touchdowns in 2021.
