  05/06/22 - Dylan DeveneyrSr/2024, Pittsburgh, 6-5, 265 (DS#999 TE) + More +

  Georgia Tech third-year tight end Dylan Deveney spent the weekend at Rutgers with his parents and is the first player to officially visit this year. Deveney will officially visit Missouri and is talking to Maryland some but Rutgers is one of the favorites at this stage. A one-time Rutgers pledge who flipped to Georgia Tech in December of 2018, Deveney is a massive tight end with three years of eligibility, who Rutgers can develop if he returns home. Rutgers plays four tight ends, so he will have the space he needs to carve out a role in the offense. However, Deveney won't enroll anywhere until the summer, so his recruitment has some playing out to do. - Star Ledger

  05/04/22 - Cal AdomitisrSr/2022, Pittsburgh, 6-2, 235 (DS#1 LS) + More +

  Former Pitt long snapper Cal Adomitis was recognized as college football's consensus best at his position, and the Cincinnati Bengals took notice, signing the Central Catholic graduate to a free-agent contract after the draft. Adomitis, who spent the past five seasons as Pitt's starting long snapper, was so serious about perfecting his craft that he practiced in windy, rainy weather. But he knows his journey is only beginning. "It's exciting," he said last month while preparing for the draft. "But at the same time, keeping it in perspective. This is the start of the journey. The most important part is making that 53-man roster next fall. That's just as much work as anything leading up to it." Invited to the NFL Combine, Adomitis ran the 40-yard dash in 4.97 seconds on a 6-foot-2, 235-pound frame. He also did 18 reps on the 225-pound bench press. Adomitis also left his mark off the field, helping raise $121,000 for cancer programs at Children's Hospital by allowing patients to cut off his beloved, flowing hair. - The Tribune-Review

  04/26/22 - Bub MeansrSr/2024, Pittsburgh, 6-1, 227 (DS#31 WR) + More +

  Despite a full stable of talented wide receivers, Pat Narduzzi didn't believe Pitt had enough at that position. So, he dipped into the NCAA transfer portal and secured another - for now and future seasons. Jerrod "Bub" Means, who played at Louisiana Tech last season, announced on his Instagram page Saturday morning that he has committed to the Panthers. He has three years of eligibility remaining. Means, who had 25 scholarship offers coming from Lovejoy, Ga., in 2019, originally committed to North Carolina, but signed with Tennessee.

He also had interest from Georgia Tech, Virginia, Indiana, Northwestern, Missouri and Rutgers, among several others, according to Rivals.com. At Tennessee, he played sparingly as a defensive back before transferring to Louisiana Tech. He didn't play in 2020, but led the team in yards per reception (19.6) last season. He caught 22 passses for 430 yards and two touchdowns, and also returned 12 kickoffs for an average of 20.3 yards. - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

  04/22/22 - Dylan DeveneyrSr/2024, Pittsburgh, 6-5, 265 (DS#999 TE) + More +

  Georgia Tech tight end Dylan Deveney, among the first players whom coach Geoff Collins recruited upon his hire in December 2018, entered the transfer portal. Deveney, who missed the latter portion of the 2021 season with an injury and then missed spring practice recovering from surgery, made the announcement Wednesday on his Twitter account. Deveney, from Medford, N.J., appeared in 23 games for the Yellow Jackets in three seasons and started eight games. He caught 14 passes for 102 yards with one touchdown.

Deveney was positioned to compete for playing time with transfer Luke Benson (Syracuse) and returnee Dylan Leonard. Collins made a priority of recruiting Deveney out of high school when the Jackets roster was bereft of tight ends. Deveney, who began playing football only as a high school senior and then played one postgraduate season at a prep school, was committed to Rutgers before deciding to sign with Tech. According to his announcement, Deveney will graduate this summer. He has three seasons of eligibility remaining. - Atlanta Journal Constitution

Pickett, the ACC Player of the Year and third-place finisher in the Heisman Trophy voting, thanked the university, head coach Pat Narduzzi, offensive coordinator Mark Whipple, his teammates and the fans in a lengthy Twitter post. Pickett called the celebration after the Panthers won their first ACC title with a win over Wake Forest earlier this month "one of the best moments of my career." - AP College Football
