West Virginia, under new head coach Darian DeVries, doesn’t have any commitments for the 2025 class. The staff quickly picked up Jonathan Powell and KJ Tenner in the 2024 class after being hired in the spring.

DeVries and his staff are in the running for six 2025 athletes, including a couple of four-stars. Click here to check out who’s seriously considering West Virginia.
