Any chance he could play D-Back in the nickel instead of Collado?

I think it has to do with whether or not they redshirted in JC. Some guys have 3 years to play 2 and some have 2/2. Don't remember which Pittman is but I do know that if he is able to get on the field for more than 1 game he needs to play because it's not like this offense is stacked enough to "stock-pile" talent. If he is the difference in only one game this year he should play.

Can JC transfers redshirt? I remember Paris Hamilton missing what would have been his junior year with a knee injury and not being allowed to red shirt. Not sure what his exact eligibility situation was or if it is similar to Pittman's.

With the way hamstring injuries can really be nagging, I wonder if Pittman might end up being a red-shirt candidate? I mean, an injured hamstring kept him out of the spring game and now he has been sidelined the majority of the fall season. It might be nice to have him around the next two years, especially is MarQueis Gray does not make it back on campus. That being said, I wish he was healthy, because we certainly could use some help at WR right now.

Brewster said on the radio tonight that Pittman had a setback in practice and doesn't feel as good. Not 100%, but could play a little Saturday.

I'd like to see him throw the ball on a few plays. His JC videos are pretty impressive.

If he can't somehow change the "spaces" on the field it means zip. Lots of fast and quick people can't do it.

He is SUPER quick

I mean really, you know, really run? Can he stretch the field just a little bit for us? Everything develops so slowly downfield for us. If you want to fall asleep, watch our skill position players (and not the ball) on any given passing play. Zzzzzzzzz.

I like this quote:

But even Sherels is far from satisfied, especially with where the secondary is as a unit right now.

"But it's always a group effort. If one person gets beat, he should have help. If one gets beat, we all get beat."

We will need to get him involved in the passing game so BG does not solely focus on Decker.

Gophers coach Tim Brewster said junior receiver David Pittman is 100 percent and will make his season debut against Bowling Green. Pittman had been recovering from a hamstring injury that sidelined him for most of fall camp and Saturday's season opener.
