Diaz comes from Cardinal Hayes High School in the Bronx, N.Y., where Pittsburgh Steelers’ offensive lineman Willie Colon also attended before heading to Hofstra University.
The 6-foot-2, 285-pound guard is ranked as the No. 9 prospect in the state of New York by Rivals.com. He was recruited by running backs coach Dave Walker and picked Pitt over Army and Connecticut.
Since signing day isn’t until the spring, no recruits can actually sign yet. All commitments continue to be verbal, which means although rare, players can change their minds at the last minute.
Diaz joins Cory King, an offensive tackle, as the second commit on the offensive line for the Panthers.
