West Virginia recruiting class incomplete, but feels peachy on signing day

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. – West Virginia’s 2019 signing class is far from a finished product, but in one sense it’s a peach.

Mountaineers coach Dana Holgorsen announced the addition of 16 new players to the roster on Wednesday, which marked the opening of the early signing period. The early signing period closes Friday, and is followed by the traditional Feb. 6 signing day.

Nearly one-third of West Virginia’s current signees – five players – are from Georgia. It’s no accident.

“That’s been a high priority of ours; we’ve really focused on Georgia these last few years,” Holgorsen said.
