Let’s see if today is as big a day for Pitt and WPIAL recruiting news as yesterday. As always, I’ll be constantly updating this throughout the entire day.
**I’ve confirmed that within the last day, Pitt was out to see massive Nassau Community College OT Badara Traore (6-8, 310). Traore is a big-time prospect holding offers from South Carolina, Penn State, Oklahoma, Georgia, Florida, Baylor, Auburn and Arizona State.

I’m attempting to talk with Traore later today.
**WR coach Kevin Sherman was in Virginia yesterday checking out Woodberry, VA TE John Kirven. Pitt offered Kirven (6-6, 240) a scholarship two weeks ago but have been in communication (Coach Salem) with him for a while.
“I got to meet Coach Sherman for the first time today at my track practice”, said Kirven. “We got acquainted and talked about taking a visit in the future. I will most likely visit sometime in the summer.”
UPDATE (11:28)-
**WR coach Kevin Sherman spent some time in Harrisburg yesterday watching a player that he’d no doubt want to coach one day. Harrisburg WR Shaquon Anderson-Butts is a receiver in the Class of 2018 but is already getting major attention. Anderson-Butts (6-0, 159) has offers from Penn State, West Virginia, Rutgers, Syracuse and Temple. Pitt hasn’t offered yet but I’m told it will be coming soon. This speedy receiver is reportedly high on Penn State but Pitt recruit is well in Harrisburg so it could shape up to be a pretty good recruiting battle for this talented receiver.
