WVU Football Welcomes True Freshmen Early Enrollees
The WVU football program has officially welcomed 12 new freshman to campus as early enrollee freshmen.
Below are the high school recruits from West Virginia’s 2025 class who have enrolled early and are already kicking off their careers as Mountaineers.
Scott Fox (QB, OH)
Scotty Fox (6-foot-2, 210 pounds) comes from Mentor High School in Mentor, Ohio. Rivals is the highest on Fox, rating him as a four-star prospect and the No. 13 recruit in Ohio. ESPN, On3 and 247Sports all rate Fox as a three-star prospect.
Fox also earned offers from several other major programs but is locked in with the Mountaineers. In addition to WVU, Fox held Power 4 offers from Boston College, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan State and Minnesota. He also had offers from Akron, Ball State, Bowling Green, UConn, Marshall, Miami (Oh.), Toledo and Kent State.

Gavin Crawford (OL, MD)
Crawford (6-foot-3, 320 pounds) is an interior offensive lineman, and a consensus three-star offensive linemen. On3 Sports has ranked Crawford as the No. 21 player in Maryland.
WVU was the second program to offer Crawford, back in January of 2023. The Mountaineers were able to receive a commitment from Crawford before he even took a visit to Morgantown. Prior to his commitment, Crawford took two unofficial visits to Duke and an official visit to UCLA.
Brandon Homady (OL, OH)
Sammy Eitienne (Safety, FL)
Chris Fileppo (Safety, PA)
Zah Jackson (CB, WV)
Zah Jackson, a top athlete in the state of West Virginia, looks to be the next successful in-state pickup for the Mountaineers. Jackson logged a 4.5 40-yard dash.
Jackson played at perennial power Huntington High School. He’s a consensus three-star recruit across the board, with 247 Sports grading him out as an 87 and the No. 1 overall recruit in the state, right in front of fellow WVU signee Tyshawn Dues. On3 Sports has Jackson as the No. 2 overall recruit, right behind Tyshawn Dues.
Romando Johnson (LB, FL)
Michael Hastie (LB, GA)
Wilkerson Telemaque (DL, FL)
Amir Leonard-Jean Charles (DL, TN)
The 6-foot-4, 305-pound Lipscomb Academy product from Mount Juliet, Tenn. in the Nashville area committed to the Mountaineers back in June as part of the summer wave of recruits. He proclaimed “I’m coming home” on a social media post when he announced his commitment.
Charles is classified as a three-star by most national recruiting outlets. Charles is ranked within the top 30 Tennessee players by most outlets, with his best placement coming from 247 Sports, who has him at No. 14.
WVU has been pursuing Charles for well over a year. Kentucky, Michigan, Texas and Tennessee have been projected to be his top choices, per On3 Sports. However, Charles told WV Sports Now before his commitment announcement that his final decision came down to WVU, Florida and Syracuse.
West Virginia’s pursuit of Charles is not random by any means. Beyond his talent, Charles’ mother is a WVU alum and was a Mountaineer athlete herself as a member of the swim team during her college days.
Charles visited Morgantown frequently throughout the past year.
Before committing, Charles’ offer list included major programs like Auburn, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Louisville, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, Ole Miss, Purdue and Tennessee.
