PISCATAWAY, N.J. — Dave Wannstedt only needed to watch a handful of highlights when recruiting Dion Lewis out of Blair Academy.“His highlight tape was five plays and they were all 80-yard runs. I seriously watched five plays and told [assistant coach] Jeff Hafley to offer him,” Wannstedt said after Lewis rushed 31 times for 180 yards in Pittsburgh’s 24-17 victory Friday over Rutgers at Rutgers Stadium.
A native of Albany, N.Y., Lewis ran roughshod over the Rutgers defense, including a 58-yard touchdown that put Pitt (6-1, 3-0 Big East) up 24-10.
