Pitt's Capel adds another Top 100 Commitment

It's been a momentous week for Pitt Men's Basketball Coach, Jeff Capel. On Monday, he secured the commitment of DIor Johnson, a 2022 top 50 point guard, the highest ranked recruit of his tenure. On Wednesday, 2023 Top 100 combo guard Carlton Carrington announced live on CBS Sports HQ that he plans to sign with the Panthers.

The 6'4" Carrington chose PItt over offers from George Mason, Stanford, Loyola Chicago and Iona. He played last season for St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, MD and on the AAU circuit for Team Melo. He's developed a reputation for his high basketball IQ and mid-range shooting.
