Tim Salem discovered a 6-foot-2, 195-pound Kenny Pickett while he was playing as a three-star recruit at Ocean Township High School in Oakhurst, N.J.
It was through Pitt's current tight ends coach and the help of then-offensive coordinator Matt Canada which brought that quarterback to the Pitt program, where he would go on to have a legendary career with records shattered, a program revived, and an ACC Championship delivered.
Six years later, the now-Steelers' offensive coordinator Canada and Pickett are officially running it back.
Mike Tomlin went to the bullpen for his rookie on Sunday against the Jets, and on Tuesday, the Steelers' head coach made it official by naming Pickett the starting quarterback for Sunday's game at Buffalo, supplanting Mitch Trubisky and officially ushering in a new era for Pittsburgh football.
