Pitt football coach Dave Wannstedt emerged from a highly competitive recruiting battle in New Jersey yesterday as Paterson Catholic defensive end T.J. Clemmings gave a verbal commitment to the Panthers.

Clemmings, 6 feet 6 and 266 pounds, chose the Panthers over a number of other scholarship offers, including most notably Penn State, Notre Dame, Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina, Miami and Rutgers.

He is the Panthers fourth recruit and second defensive lineman recruit for the class of 2010.
