A few weeks ago some were wondering if Dave Wannstedt had lost his touch as an ace recruiter because the Panthers had gotten off to a bit of a slow start in the recruiting process for the class of 2010. Wannstedt's answer to his critics was a simple "nothing's changed, we're going to be fine." He wasn't lying. Pitt received four verbal commitments yesterday, including one from the WPIAL, bringing the total number of commitments to 10.

WPIAL is in district 7 of the PIAA and yes is considered a prime stomping ground for PA HS talent. I'm sure in CA they have an governing body to handle HS sports, set up classifications, impose rules etc.. This is the PA equivalent. TX has the UIL.

Now the WPIAL kid they are talking about is Kevin Weatherspoon and he played in Class A ball so you do the math. Unranked by rivals. not overly big or fast but supposedly a good possesion receiver and route runner. Had good numbers last year though.
