Pirates land commitment from 2017 big man Darnell Brodie

The Pirates must have wished for a big man this holiday season because on Saturday they got one.

Darnell Brodie, a 2017 recruit out of Putnam Science Academy in Connecticut, announced he has committed to Seton Hall. The 6-foot-9, 250-pound big man took to Twitter with the announcement less than two hours before Christmas.

Brodie’s decision to attend Seton Hall comes just a day after he took an official visit, which included a courtside view of the Pirates’ dramatic win over in-state rival Rutgers at Prudential Center.
