PITTSBURGH (AP) β Pat Narduzzi seems to have settled on a quarterback.
The rest of the Pitt backfield is unclear.
While Nate Peterman will go out with the first team on Saturday when the Panthers (2-1) open ACC play at Virginia Tech (2-2), Narduzzi isn’t sure which running back will join Peterman in the huddle. Qadree Ollison, Chris James and Darrin Hall will get a chance this week to distinguish themselves. So far, none of the three have seized the job in the absence of injured star James Conner, out indefinitely with a torn ligament in his right knee.
Narduzzi listed all three players with an “or” next to their name on the depth chart, a sign he is still searching for consistency. Narduzzi says he’ll stick with the hot hand should one of the three get going against the Hokies.
