WVU Football RB recruit Evan Hampton and Chad Scott

Back focused on West Virginia’s running game, Chad Scott is able to offer a strong sales pitch to top running back recruits. And this week, Scott represented the WVU football program by visiting a four-star back at his house.

Evan Hampton (6-foot and 208 pounds), a member of the 2026 class at Owensboro High School in Owensboro, Ky., talked about his experience with Scott on social media. Great home visit with coach Chad Scott. I appreciate you coming and spending some time with my family and I!,” said Hampton on X (formerly Twitter).

Hampton is considered a four-star player by multiple national recruiting outlets and ranked as one of the five best in Kentucky by 247 Sports.

Hampton is becoming a priority ย for running back coaches around the country. In addition to meeting with Scott, he had meeting with coaches from Power Four programs Boston College, Stanford, Vanderbilt and Virginia Tech as well. However, those schools are far from the only other programs interested in Hampton.

He has 23 total offers, which also include Arkansas, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisville, North Carolina State, North Carolina, Syracuse, TCU among others.
