Pitt adds fourth member of 2011 basketball class

Six-foot-eleven Malcom Gilbert of Philly commits

Malcom Gilbert, a 6-11 center from Academy Of The New Church Boys in Bryn Athyn, PA--just outside Philadelphia--has committed to the University of Pittsburgh.


A hot prospect in the class of 2011, Gilbert was being recruited by Clemson, Virginia, Wake Forest, Ohio State and others before he decided on Pitt. He becomes the fourth prospect of Pitt's 2011 basketball recruiting class.

There was not much we didn't know about Pitt's Jamie Dixon when this season began. We knew he'd never coached a team to the Final Four. But we also knew he never missed an NCAA Tournament. Nor has he ever lost to a Top 10 team at home.
