New Mexico State Transfer WR Planning to Visit WVU Football After SEC School

Even though there’s confidence in the current wide receiver room, the WVU football staff is still on the hunt for more experienced and depth. West Virginia is also looking to take advantage of receivers who entered the transfer portal and are still without a new college home.

A receiver who fits the bill is New Mexico State transfer Trent Hudson. WVU sent Hudson an offer about a week ago as he hopes to play his final college year in a major conference like the Big 12.

After taking a trip to Mississippi State, ironically his most recent offer from just a day ago, this weekend, Hudson tells WV Sports Now that he will be visiting Morgantown the following week.

In addition to West Virginia and MSU, Hudson also has offers from schools like Arizona State, FAU, Colorado State, Houston, North Texas, San Diego State, Western Kentucky and several others.

Before his lone season at New Mexico State, Hudson spent a year at Trinity Valley Community, catching 50 passes for 778 yards and 10 touchdowns. Hudson made 35 receptions for 551 yards and 10 scores for the Aggies in 2023.

WVU’s interest in Hudson stems from his 6-foot-3 frame as the Mountaineers are hoping to add a deep threat option.
