Michael Pittman Commits to USC and Twitter Reacts

USC picked up their eight overall commitment in less than four weeks, as former UCLA commit Michael Pittman committed to the Trojans over the Oregon Ducks on the Fourth of July.

It’s a big get for the Trojans in a literal sense, as Pittman stands at 6-foot-4, 205 pounds and can play on both sides of the ball at wide receiver and safety.

Despite the commitment coming on a holiday, Twitter still had the fireworks following the announcement. Here’s some highlights:

"It came down to comfort level, tradition and where I would be most comfortable, for me, that was #USC," new commit Michael Pittman

Big props to #USC assistant Marques Tuiasosopo, continued to recruit Pittman, even when he was not responding #relentless

Four-star Michael Pittman has committed to #USC over #Oregon. Former #UCLA commit who seemed like a lock to the Ducks a few weeks ago.

With Michael Pittman on board, #USC moves up to ninth overall in composite 2016 class rankings. Top-rated class in #Pac12.

@ReignofTroy Big pickup. Especially at 6'4" 210. Versatile enough to play both sides of the ball. Perfect for what the staff wants.

@ReignofTroy reminds me of mike Williams, but being that he already decommited once from a school kinda worries me.
