Pittsburgh, PA – Pitt Panthers football program has reason to celebrate after securing a verbal commitment from Michigan high school safety Elijah Dotson. The announcement came after Dotson made his decision public via social media on Monday afternoon.

Standing at 6 feet tall and weighing 195 pounds, Dotson has impressed scouts with his speed, agility, and football IQ. His commitment is seen as a significant win for Pitt’s recruiting efforts, especially in bolstering their defensive capabilities for the upcoming seasons.
