WVU Football Adds 2026 3-Star Interior Lineman

WVU Football flipped their second recruit of the day during the afternoon of Monday, June 9, with 2026 three-star offensive lineman Rhett Morris announcing his intention to commit to West Virginia in a Twitter post.

Considered an interior offensive lineman, the 6-foot-3, 300 pound Morris hails from Ramsey, N.J. and attends Don Bosco Prep High School. He’s regarded as a three-star prospect by both Rivals and 247 Sports, ranking among the top 25 players in New Jersey and as high as No. 17 (247 Sports).

Schools like Boston College, Mountaineers’ rivals Pitt and Virginia Tech and Wake Forest are also interested in Morris. He committed to the Demon Deacons in December, but the Mountaineers reaffirmed their interest in Morris with a January re-offer, and it seems the gambit paid off.

West Virginia first offered Morris in February 2024, and he mentioned new Mountaineers’ offensive line coach Jack Bicknell Jr. as playing a role in his renewed offer.
