2 Eastern PA verbal commitments

U of Pittsburgh just received this past week two more verbal commitments from the class of 2011. First one is from Harrisburg, PA powerhouse Bishop McDevitt coached by veteran Coach Jeff Weachter. The player is highly experienced Jameel Poteat. Poteat can play a multitude of positions. At 5'11"/205 Poteat is a solid running back for McDevitt who has the necessary speed to transfer his talent to running back at the collegiate level. But his skills do not stop there. He can catch the football, he has potential to become a free or strong safety, and his aggressive style of play could dictate him becoming a will linebacker in time. The other Eastern Pennsylvania recruit is athlete Terrell Chestnut from Pottstown, PA Pottsgrove High. Chestnut can play a variety of positions but after watching film on him I am sold on Chestnut as being a shut down corner. At 5'10"/185, Terrell Chestnut can back pedal with speed, flip his hips, and run with receivers. His ball skills are very good and he is willing to come up, make tackles, and support the run. Chestnut has been well coached by veteran Coach Rick Pennypacker. Pitt is doing an excellent job recruiting the Eastern part of PA. With the efforts of recruiting co-ordinator Bob Junko and TE Coach Brian Angelicho and OL Coach Tony Wyse doing the recruiting in Eastern PA, the Dave Wannstedt staff continues to make noise in the talent laden Eastern Pennsylvania region.
