Fast rising tight end talks upcoming Florida visit

While Warminster (Pa.) Archbishop Wood Catholic tight end Kyle Pitts may currently reside in the Keystone State, make no mistake about it, the up-and-coming three-star prospect doesn't plan on attending college there.

Though both Pitt and Penn State have offered the 6-foot-4, 224-pounder, he says he has no interest in either program.

“I don't talk to either of those coaching staffs anymore,” said Pitts. “They know I am going to school out-of-state to play football.”

Since he has set his sights on programs from out-of-state, they in-turn are turning out in droves to see Pitts this spring.

“Virginia Tech, Florida, Virginia, Rutgers and Maryland have all just been by to see me workout,” stated Pitts.

What those college assistants are seeing is one of the fastest rising prospects in the northeast.

10 days ago at the 3 Stripe Camp stop in New Jersey Pitts was named as one of the top overall performers on offense.

Rivals Write-up: Tight end was particularly deep at this camp with guys like four-star Jeremy Ruckert and three-star Matt Alaimo among those competing, but Pitts emerged as the day’s top performer at the position. Measuring 6-foot-5 and 239 pounds, Pitts has a great frame for the tight end position and looks like he could play in-line with little issue. He is a bit of a long-strider, meaning he comes out of his breaks a little slow, but he does a tremendous job tracking the ball, using his body to shield defenders and he has a strong pair of hands.
