  From Court to Coach: Jeffress Returns to Erie | Pitt Basketball News

  Aug 9, 20261 min

  Former Pitt standout Jeffress is returning home to Erie, Pennsylvania, where he’s now taking on a new mission as Director of Student Athlete Success at Mercyhurst University.

Once ranked the top player in Pennsylvania and a key contributor for Pitt, Jeffress overcame injuries and surgeries while maintaining All-Academic honors. Now, he’s shifting from player to pillar, guiding student-athletes to build lives that extend far beyond basketball.

  Dunning’s Portal Move and Legal Twist | Pitt Basketball News

  Aug 1, 20262 min

  Barry Dunning Jr. is reportedly eyeing the transfer portal after a major legal development could unlock a sixth season for high school athletes from the 2022 class — including him — potentially allowing his return to Pitt. But insiders say it’s unlikely either Dunning or fellow forward Cam Corhen will stick around next year, despite Dunning’s standout play last season: averaging 12.5 points and 5.9 rebounds while leading Pitt in blocks and shooting over 46% from the field. With the NCAA’s door closed on an extra year, the court ruling offers a new path — but the transfer portal’s fast-moving nature suggests both players are likely headed elsewhere.

  Eligibility Ruling Rocks College Sports | Pitt Basketball News

  Aug 1, 20262 min

  A Colorado federal judge’s bold ruling could let 2022 high school grads return for a fifth season — sending shockwaves through college sports. Former Pitt RB Desmond Reid is reportedly weighing a comeback for 2026, while forward Cam Corhen, who averaged 13 points and nearly 7 rebounds despite playing center, enters the transfer portal with “do not contact.” His forced role highlights Pitt’s roster struggles — including Dishon Jackson’s medical redshirt — revealing how this new eligibility window could reshape athlete decisions and NCAA dynamics.

  Pitt Panthers Face Early Fire | Pitt Basketball News

  Jul 29, 20262 min

  Pitt’s 2026-27 non-conference schedule is loaded with early tests and high-stakes matchups, starting with home games against Rider and Buffalo, then hitting the road for Butler and a pivotal road game at Penn State’s historic Palestra. The Panthers face Villanova in a home-and-home showdown, followed by Central Michigan, before heading to Fort Myers for a tournament featuring Oklahoma, DePaul, and possibly Purdue — a potential early-season statement win. They’ll also battle Missouri in the ACC/SEC Challenge and close out non-conference play with the Backyard Brawl against West Virginia and three winnable home games. With a revamped roster and a chance to prove they’ve improved from last year’s 15th-place finish, Pitt must avoid early losses and build momentum for a strong conference run.
