Pittsburgh wide receiver and reigning Biletnikoff Award winner Jordan Addison became the latest star player to enter college football’s transfer portal earlier this week, drawing strong reaction from across the sport. As fans of the Panthers brace for his potential departure, there’s at least one person within the program standing beside Addison: his position coach.
Pittsburgh wide receivers coach and passing game coordinator Tiquan Underwood took to Twitter on Thursday, urging Panthers fans to back off their criticism of Addison online. In his post, he praised Addison for being “humble, talented and a hard worker.”
Underwood just spent his first season with the Pitt program after previously serving as an assistant for Rutgers for two years.
