West Virginia Picks Up Another Verbal Commitment For 2016

West Virginia added one commit to its 2016 class on Saturday night as Ohio athlete Nathan Niehaus pledged to the Mountaineers.

West Virginia picked up a commitment from Cincinnati, OH prospect, Nathan Niehaus. Niehaus plays tight end for Colerain High School in Cincinnati, but offensive line coach Ron Crook saw more potential for his 6'-6" 250 lb. body on the offensive line.

Niehaus came into Morgantown on Saturday without an offer from the Mountaineers but because of a spectacular camp performance he was named camp MVP and picked up an offer from Dana Holgorsen and Ron Crook, which he jumped on almost immediately.
