Morris signed with West Virginia on December’s Early Signing Day as part of the program’s highest rated class ever.

A product of Don Bosco Prep High School in Ramsey, N.J, Morris stands 6-foot-3 and weighs 305 pounds. He has experience at both center and guard.

Morris helped anchor WVU’s class as an early commit, announcing his plans to become a Mountaineer on June 9.

Morris helped Don Bosco Prep reach New Jersey’s Non-Public A state championship game during his senior season. The offensive line proved a major area of concern for WVU Football in 2025, so recruits like Morris could play a critical role as the Mountaineers try to improve on their 4-8 record in their first full offseason of head coach Rich Rodriguez’s second stint in Morgantown.
