Washington picked up a major piece for their defense today when Pittsburgh LB transfer Cam Bright committed to the Huskies. Bright was a team captain for Pitt who had one of their best seasons in a long time winning the ACC championship in 2021.
The 6’0, 220 pound linebacker originally from Alabama was a 3-year starter at Pittsburgh and will be taking advantage of his 6th year of eligibility from the 2020 pandemic mulligan as a grad transfer at Washington. The Huskies are perilously thin at the linebacker spot after they lost Will Latu, Miki Ah You, MJ Tafisi, and Jackson Sirmon since the start of fall camp.
