Pittman a Big Loser--And Loving It

To say David Pittman was a big man on campus as a high school senior last season it putting it mildly. The 6' 10" men's basketball star weighed in at a staggering 388 pounds. He could get away with wearing a size 52 waist pants in high school, but that wasn't going to cut it at the University of Texas. Since arriving at Austin, Pittman has lost 93 pounds and now proudly wears a size 40 pants. As his waist has shrunk, his playing time has steadily increased.
