Pitt vs. Notre Dame: 3 charged players will play against Irish
According to a statement from Pitt: “All three players will remain active members of our program while we gain more clarity on this situation.”
The charges pertain to an Oct. 21 incident. The three players allegedly surrounded a man and one of them punched him in the head. They are being charged with simple assault and conspiracy.
Even with Graham, Street, and Pitts in the lineup, the Panthers are double-digit underdogs against the undefeated Fighting Irish. Graham leads the team in yards from scrimmage (866 yards), and Street is the team’s leading receiver (695 yards). Pitts is second among all Pitt freshmen in tackles (21).
