Former Oregon Ducks wide receiver Mycah Pittman has announced his commitment to the Utah Utes.

"Life's a gamble and I'm all about my poker chips," Pittman penned on social media.

Pittman played at Oregon from 2019 to 2021 but never quite broke out under head coach Mario Cristobal. 

Before the end of the 2021 season Pittman announced that he would be entering the transfer portal and would spend the 2022 season in his home state of Florida, playing for Mike Norvell and the Seminoles.

During his one season in Tallahassee he had the chance to play with former Calabasas (Calif.) High teammate Johnny Wilson, who was also a former Oregon commit in the class of 2019.

He played in all 13 games last season and caught 32 passes for 330 yards and three touchdowns. Pittman was also featured on special teams like he was at Oregon, returning 18 punts for 169 yards, which earned him All-ACC honorable mention as a specialist.

With Pittman's latest move to Salt Lake City he joins a Utah offense that's led by quarterback Cameron Rising but loses star tight ends Brant Kuithe and Dalton Kincaid. The Utes do return their leading wide receivers in juniors Devaughn Vele and Money Parks.

The Ducks aren't scheduled to play the Utes during the 2023 regular season, but Dan Lanning and his squad could very well end up playing the back-to-back Pac-12 champions in the conference title game, which would have Pittman lining up across from some of his former Duck teammates.
