West Virginia to host 5-star in-state recruit Darnell Wright

With National Signing Day well under a month away, the new West Virginia coaching staff has hit the ground running in attempt to round out the 2019 class.

New head coach Neal Brown made an emphasis that he wants to keep the talent in the state home. “If you’re in the state of West Virginia, we are going to make it very difficult for you to say no.” he said in his introductory press conference.

Brown is certainly keeping that promise. Today, we learned that consensus 5-star offensive lineman Darnell Wright of Huntington, WV will be officially visiting West Virginia this weekend.

Wright had interest in the Mountaineers at the beginning, but seems to have gained more interest since the coaching change.

Tennessee and North Carolina are also in the mix with Tennessee being the virtual leader at the moment.
