Early today, the Pitt Panthers extended offers to three recruits in the 2027 class. Let's take a look at that trio added to the board:

Davion Crumitie

Out of Rickards High School in Tallahassee, Florida, 2027 receiver/cornerback Davion Crumitie announced an offer from the Pitt Panthers today. He's a 5-foot-11, 170-pound athlete who at a recent state championship track meet clocked a 10.76 in the 100 meters (placing third in the event), and a 20.88 in the 200 meters (good enough for fourth in the event).

At a previous track meet, the two-way rising junior recorded a personal best 100-meter sprint of an eyebrow-raising 10.50.

In nine games last season, Crumitie - ranked three-stars - put together 22 catches for 306 yards and a touchdowns. He also turned three carries into 34 yards, and he notched 272 return yards.

Maryland, Sacramento State, Southern Miss, Syracuse, Troy and Wake Forest make up his additional scholarship offers.

For the Pearland, Texas, product, Pittsburgh is the latest offer next to Arizona, Arizona State, Baylor, Houston, Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Sacramento State, San Diego State, SMU, TCU, Texas A&M, Texas Tech, Tulsa, UNLV, Utah, and UTSA.
