Poor Spring Game Attendance (2,100) at 65,000 seat Heinz Field causes recruit to cancel his commitment to Pitt:

http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/sports/college/pitt/s_504051.html

Took this from another posters thread on another board...

Seems that Pitt had a HORRIBLE showing at their annual spring game, which cause a recruit to back out of a verbal commit.

Lets scoop him up!!!

GO BULLS!!!

Ouch!

"It was kind of an 80-20 thing," Cruz said, "80 percent wanting to keep my options open and 20 percent seeing that they really don't have a great fan base."

Ouch!

"everyone feels that I can go (to a program) way bigger and better" than Pitt.

And he's from Pittsburgh.

I doubt ND is still in the running.  They just got a verbal from Joseph Fauria.  His Uncle played TE for the Pats when Charlie Weis was the OC.

but according to him, it was just a small factor in his move.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
