The scene at Heinz Field on Saturday was like a carnival, Kirk Barron (Mishakawa, Ind./Marian) said. Though Barron didn’t leave this carnival with a prize -- an offer -- he thoroughly enjoyed his visit to Pittsburgh.
“It went really good. I talked with the offensive line coach [Jim Hueber] before the game started. I thought that was a positive,” Barron said. “The entire atmosphere was great. I liked it a lot. It was fun to be there and watch Coach [Paul] Chryst win his first game.”
Barron said Hueber was excited to see he made the trip from Indiana, which is about a five-hour drive. Barron and his father did not arrive in Pittsburgh until 3 a.m. Saturday morning.
