PITTSBURGH -- Jorge and Guillermo Diaz-Graham have been Pitt Panthers for just a few months, but they are already the foundation of their team's future. The two rangy big men are far from finished products, but that's what makes Pitt such a good fit for them. 

With All-ACC center John Hugley returning to dominate Pitt's frontcourt, head coach Jeff Capel and his staff have plenty of flexibility to manage the workload for each player. If they're ready to play immediately, they can be fine complementary pieces to one of the best returning players in the ACC. And if not, there is enough depth to afford to stash them on the bench and let them grow into their own talent. 

The twin brothers have similar looks, builds and ratings from the manor recruiting services. But they play differently, so don't expect their paths at Pitt to mirror one another.
