Does not have breakaway speed, but does have sure hands. Because his older brother was a star at USC and is now in the NFL...he has a much higher opinion of his abilities than they actually are. When he left Oregon...it was before Cristobal left, and his objections to the offense were justified at that time. But he will be a squeaky wheel, and if things don't go his way...(this is his THIRD school, and that tells you something too) He will be a good second-tier receiver for you, and with his experience could be valuable on key third downs. Pittman in 2019... 2 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
savagefund No. 5 Share Posted May 8, 2023 I think he is a better punt returner than what Utah had last year. That may be one of his duties. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastBayDuckDad Moderator No. 6 Share Posted May 8, 2023 He will be a solid option for Rising and the Ute offense this year. He honestly wasn't particularly missed by Oregon last year (neither was Dye for that matter, nor will Thornton be this year). The current WR room with Franklin, Johnson, Holden and Hutson is largely an upgrade. Wish Pittman well at Utah. Except against Oregon, where I hope he spends the game picking chunks of the Rice Eccles synthetic field turf out of his face mask after smack talking our DBs and LBs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Log Haulin No. 7 Share Posted May 9, 2023 When Pittman broke his arm,didn't he make that catch on the sideline? I think he could be a great player, he hasn't done so yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJacksPlaidPants Moderator No. 8 Share Posted May 9, 2023 He has a great social media presence and decent hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haywarduck No. 9 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Not happy at Oregon, can't blame him, not happy at FSU, take a guess at Utah. I too wish him well and it can't be easy coming from a family where Dad was an NFL star, brother is in the NFL, and the expectation is he should be there soon. I hope he works hard and makes the best of his chance. Probably more importantly gets a good education. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave23 No. 10 Share Posted May 9, 2023 A decent receiver but I think his locker room presence is probably a distraction, his attitude on the field is less than stellar. If I remember correctly he got more than a couple stupid PIs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Administrator No. 11 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Yes, and his penalty cost us a touchdown at Washington when he lost his cool. Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Kamikaze Kid Moderator No. 12 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I actually kind of feel sorry for the guy. With his family tree, he has he has a lot of expectations to live up to. It seems like he has next level skills but maybe not the physical capabilities namely speed. Maybe he should pursue a coaching carrier after his playing days are over to maximize his understanding of skill development. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
