The Past
Back on March 26, 2015 Pitt received a commitment from a little known Quarterback from Cincinnati, Ohio. At that point, many were skeptical of Tom MacVittie, and for good reason - he never started a high school game. Usually Division One quarterback prospects start in their sophomore year, heck sometimes even as freshmen, and here Pitt was taking a kid that has played three years as backup for his high school.
His offer sheet wasn't much too speak of either, thus drawing concern and criticism from many.
