Former Pitt wide receiver Raphael Williams Jr. publicly criticized head coach Pat Narduzzi for allegedly damaging his character prior to the NFL Draft. Williams disclosed a scouting report that described him as having 'below average personal character' and accused him of being cocky and entitled. He contested these claims, stating he worked hard and demonstrated leadership during his career at Pitt. Williams shared screenshots of the report and responded to Narduzzi's earlier praise of him. Williams celebrated a fruitful college career with 208 receptions and 2,744 yards but has not yet made an NFL roster.
