Small forward J.J. Moore passed the NCAA Clearinghouse and was at the first day of games at the Pittsburgh Basketball Club Pro-Am league, along with fellow recruit Cameron Wright.

Both are currently enrolled in classes.

Guard Isaiah Epps is eligible, as well, but won’t be in Pittsburgh until August.

Those three scholarships put Pitt over the limit for the upcoming season, meaning one player from last year’s team would have to leave.

That player is forward Dwight Miller, who transferred to Midland Junior College in Texas, close to his hometown, Houston.
