Welcome to the WVU Football Recruiting Hot Board. If you've followed us for a while, you know how this works. But if you're new here, don't worry. Here's a quick rundown of what this page is for and why you need to bookmark it!
Our first section of the Hot Board are recruits who have place West Virginia in their top list of schools. These recruits will have more information provided such as hometown, height, weight, who is in the mix, social handles, highlights, visit/decision dates, and so on. Players will be listed in alphabetical order within their position.
Directly under that, we have our "Names to Watch" section. Recruits listed here have heavy interest in WVU and are guys we are going to keep a close eye on. Some in this category will have official visit dates scheduled to Morgantown. If so, we'll note that. If you click on the player's name under this section, it will take you to their X profile.
At the very bottom, we have our "predictions" section where we will submit predictions on where some recruits will go. The school listed first is my prediction, the second school (once announced) is the recruit's chosen destination. Ex: QB Geno Smith: West Virginia | West Virginia.
If you look at the historical data (which we continuously update), we've got a pretty high hit rate, so pay attention.
