Pitt Football Offer Report: Two Added to 2026 Board

As the Pitt Panthers continue to add named to the official visitor list throughout next month, the coaching staff is extending more scholarship offers to recruits in the 2026 class.

After offering linebacker Adam Shaw and tackle Dominic Harris, the Panthers put scholarships on the table for another pair of recruits in the current cycle.

First, the Panthers offered Miami (Fla.) Palmetto receiver/athlete CJ Miller, joining Boston College, Eastern Michigan, Liberty, Wofford, and others. Most of the 6-foot, 165-pound pass-catcher's scholarship opportunities surfaced after an outstanding performance at an Under Armour Camp in l.

CJ Miller, also known as Conneilus Miller Jr., clocked a 4.44 in the 40-yard dash and a 4.39 shuttle at the event. This followed a quality output in his junior season in 2024, recording 56 catches for over 1,000 yards and eight touchdowns while logging two interceptions, returning one for a touchdown.

The Panthers extended the offer on Friday, May 16. Roughly three hours later, another 2026 recruit announced a Pitt offer.

This time, it was defensive back Damarius Lavender out of Englewood (Co.) Cherry Creek High School, back-to-back state champions at a high-level of football in Colorado.
