Over the weekend, word broke that Pitt running back Chris James was expected to transfer. On Monday, the backup rusher confirmed that, issuing a brief statement:
"I came to Pitt and instantly developed a love for the city, built relationships that have help mold who I am today," James said. "Looking back I wouldn't change a thing. I have to do what's best for me and that is to move on."
As I said at the time, James' loss certainly hurts the team's depth at running back to some degree.
