Pitt Football Recruiting: 2017 offensive lineman Owen Drexel commits to Panthers

Earlier, Jim mentioned a new Pitt commit in running back Todd Sibley. The Panthers also added a second recruit on Wednesday in offensive lineman Owen Drexel.

Drexel, out of New Jersey, reportedly chose the Panthers over Rutgers and several lower-tier offers. Boston College hadn't yet formally but they appeared to be in the mix as well.

His ratings are a bit cloudy at the moment. Several outlets are reporting he is a three-star recruit, but Rivals and ESPN both have him unrated, Scout has him as a 2-star player, and 247's cumulative rating on him is a 2-star.
