WVU Football Offers 2027 4-Star Already Committed to Major Brand

With high school recurring mow in full swing, the WVU football staff sent an offer to a top recruit already committed to a major brand.

In an effort to continue their Florida pipeline, West Virginia offered DeMarcus DeRoche on Thursday. The 6-foot-4, 207-pound four-star athlete posted about his offer on social media, willing to entertain other schools despite being committed to Miami (FL) since August.
