What do you do when the coach that was recruiting you to a certain school picks up and takes a job at the school you just left because you weren’t happy with your usage rate?
That’s a question that former Oregon Ducks’ wide receiver Mycah Pittman recently had to ask himself. Pittman announced mid-season that he was going to leave Eugene and enter the transfer portal, where he would later end up at Florida State under Mike Norvell.

It was recently reported by The Tallahassee Democrat’s Curt Weiler that the departure of Kenny Dillingham, FSU’s former OC who left for the same job at Oregon, made Pittman hesitate for a second on his decision.
Mycah Pittman says he took a few extra days to decide after his main FSU contact, Kenny Dillingham, left to take the Oregon OC job.
During that time, he talked to Dillingham, who told him he should still come here because Norvell could use him well in his offense.

Everything arguably ended up in the expected destinations, with Pittman now in Tallahassee and Dillinghman up in Eugene. Still, it’s a bit interesting to note that Dillingham encouraged Oregon’s former WR to still continue on to Florida State rather than returning to the Ducks, where there is a severe need for receiver depth.
