Earlier today, Pitt announced a press conference for James Conner without much detail as to what it entailed aside from saying his mother would be with him. Many of us assumed he would be announcing he would be leaving Pitt to pursue his dream in the NFL, and I don't think any single Pitt fan would have blamed him after all he's done both in terms of playing for and representing Pitt. Unfortunately, I think every Pitt fan now wishes that was what the press conference was actually. James announced himself that he would be returning to Pitt, but that he has Stage II Hodgkin's Lymphoma, and would be undergoing treatment for it.
