This offseason has been somewhat turbulent for Pitt in terms of roster turnover, especially over the past few months, as the team recently dismissed tight end Charles Reeves Jr. and offensive lineman Justin Morgan. However, those losses paved the way for a more joyous occasion on Wednesday, when redshirt junior Jim Medure was given a scholarship.
Medure, a Batman fan whose Twitter page is attributed to “Bruce Wayne Medure,” was informed of the decision during a team meeting. Pitt graduate assistant Mike Caprara stormed into the room wearing Batman garb apparently borrowed from Medure’s closet and broke the news.
