PITTSBURGH -- A slew of decommitments this past fall trimmed the Pitt Panthers' 2023 recruiting class down to 14 members, but they have made another addition a week before the December signing day. 

T.J. Harvison, a three-star running back from Bowdon, Georgia announced his verbal pledge with a simple change of his Twitter bio. He has chosen Pitt and becomes the second tailback in the class, alongside fellow three-star Montravius Lloyd.  

Reports surfaced the morning of Harvison's commitment that the Panthers were in the lead to land him and those reports proved prophetic. The 6'1, 200-pound back, Harvison visited Pitt last weekend alongside 2023 quarterback commit Ty Diffenbach days after rushing for more than 200 yards and two touchdowns to lead Bowdon High School to a state championship victory.  

The Panthers beat out the likes of Colorado, Kansas, Boston College, Kentucky, Michigan State and Ole Miss to add Harvison to their latest class.
