Cam Johnson, the Pitt transfer who popped on John Calipari's radar in the spring, decided to go to North Carolina, despite the fact he'l have to sit out a year due to his old school's stupid and selfish policy. Pitt could still come forward and pull the hold on his transfer clause, but as it stands today he will have to sit for the 2017-18 season. Johnson really had Big Blue Nation's interest for his proven shooting ability, but once the Cats landed Kevin Knox and Hamidou Diallo, there was no room left in the equation for him to play for the Wildcats. Good luck to him. Do the right thing, Pitt.
