The thing about that, though. Pitts has no direct ties to West Virginia University, the Mountaineers or head coach Dana Holgorsen. Just because Pitts was from West Virginia, he did not need to be wearing the old gold and blue.
It would have been nice, yes, because Pitts is highly regarded as a four-star recruit with blazing speed, a knack for getting to the football and making plays.He was garnering attention from all over the country with upwards of 30 offers from the top football schools in the country.
Really, he is no different than any other Division I prospect.
