Pat Narduzzi had a busy Saturday, leading his team through its 11th practice of the spring – a scrimmage at Heinz Field – and getting his first verbal commitment from the class of 2020.
While visiting the university and after watching the scrimmage, defensive end Sam Williams announced on his Twitter account his plans to enroll next year.
