Pitt Football begins Season #2 under Head Coach Pat Narduzzi tomorrow starting with Summer Camp. For a team that started strong (8-3) and ended weak (lost season finale home vs Miami and the Military Bowl against Navy), Pitt has certain holes to fill. Most notably, the losses of Pitt’s all-time greatest WR (in terms of production) Tyler Boyd (who was taken in the 2nd round of the NFL draft this past April) and TE JP Holtz (who is trying to earn a roster spot with the Cleveland Browns) will be tough shoes to fill.

But the bigger story is what will happen on defense. Pitt got torched by faster offenses last year and faces the likes of Oklahoma State, Marshall and Clemson this season. Team speed will be a necessary upgrade on defense.

Offensively, Pitt has an experienced massive Offensive Line and a bevy of talented tailbacks. Pitt will attempt to control the clock and maul people this season.
