2025 3-Star WR Recruit Eugene Hilton Jr. Adds WVU Offer to His List

With the WVU football program busy handing out offers again on Thursday, Eugene Hilton stands out as the most high profile of them all.
Hilton (6-foot-1, 175 pounds), who attends Zionsville High School in Zionsville Indiana, tweeted about his West Virginia offer among several others on the day. Hilton thanked WVU head coach Neal Brown in his tweet.

He’s regarded as a three-star prospect by multiple national recruiting outlets like 247 Sports and Rivals. Most notably, he’s considered the number three player in the state of Indiana for his class.
Hilton has been accumulating offers from prominent schools in recent weeks. Miami (FL), Indiana, Ole Miss and Purdue. In addition to the offers, Hilton has been in communication with Ohio State, visiting during a Spring practice.
Overall, Hilton also has offers from Appalachian State, Austin Peay, FIU, Kentucky, Louisville and Toledo.
Even though WVU added transfer receivers and is still pursuing more, most of those do not have more than one or two years left of eligibility. This could make the Mountaineers the place that can provide the biggest opportunity once he would arrive.
The tweet below includes a video of Hilton training and working out.
Coaches get on this young man asap! Top 25’ WR 6’1 185 @EugeneHiltonJr is blowing up and hasn’t even scratched the surface. Has all the natural gifts to be a complete WR: size, quickness, speed, and exceptional hands. His detail on becoming a GREAT WR is growing fast! pic.twitter.com/3g8EL6T6eH
