Michigan is a school that has been linked with Nkamhoua’s recruitment all offseason. The Wolverines are coming off a week where they lost North Carolina transfer Caleb Love, who re-opened his recruitment.

West Virginia is looking to round out their impressive transfer portal class this offseason. The Mountaineers bring in RaeQuan Battle (G – Montana State), Jesse Edwards (C – Syracuse), Kerr Kriisa (G – Arizona), Jose Perez (G – Manhattan) and Omar Silverio (G – Manhattan). WVU is looking to add depth to their rotation for next season and believes that Nkamhoua can take them over the top in the brutal Big 12. West Virginia scheduled a visit with NABC D-II Player of the Year RJ Sunahara before the two parties decided to cancel it. Now they’ve found another player to come on campus and meet with the coaching staff.

WVSN will keep you up to date with Nkamhoua’s visit as West Virginia continues to recruit the transfer portal.
