Pitt freshmen denied football scholarships by university
De em ptusis of football at the University of Pittsburgh deepened as athletic director John Weber refused freshman players’ scholarship agreements. With tuition at 450 for half a year, the group demanded athlete scholarships, citing a de-emphasis program banning all athletic aid. Weber offered no immediate relief, noting notes must be paid, though some help was promised later. The freshmen, already juggling jobs and studies, prepared for their season finale against Klal Prep, while the program risks losing key backfield prospects Gall, Stebbing, and Chickerneo if no solution is found.
