Pitt was bounced from the ACC tournament by Syracuse on Wednesday night, but Panthers head coach Jeff Capel was the recipient of some positive news on Thursday morning, as Justin Champagnie announced his commitment to the program in a message posted on Twitter.
”I first off want to thank all the schools that have recruited me over the past four years of my high school career,” Champagnie said. “I also want to thank my family for their constant support and dedication to my development as a player, person and student. I want to thank my first AAU coach, Coach Harry, for seeing the potential in me from day one.
