Extremely honored to represent The University of Pittsburgh with this award!
Starting out as a walk-on is where some journeys begin, as did mine. But it’s the dedication, sacrifice, and belief in yourself that determine how far you go, both in football and in life! The sky’s the limit!
I love Pitt Football!!!! @Pitt_FB@BurlsworthTrust
🏆 Burlsworth Trophy Nominee… @carsonkent86 🏆
The Burlsworth is presented to the most outstanding player in college football who began his career as a walk-on.
This young man played his ass off vs VT. No practice reps during the week, thrown into the fire and he was able to do the job and hold it together. Holden with a full week of practice and prep will do wonders. #DoItFor6#H2P
Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi: “We got a hell of a football team. Any of those voters, if they wake their ass up, they might figure it out."
Panthers are now 5-0.
