Running back recruit Lamy Constant commits to West Virginia

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — West Virginia’s moribund running attack has some welcome help arriving next fall.

Running back Lamy Constant announced his commitment to West Virginia Tuesday night, choosing the Mountaineers over offers from Michigan State and top-ranked LSU. Constant, a Brooklyn native, is a four-star recruit rated as the No. 3 overall prospect in the state of New York by Rivals.

Constant has been West Virginia’s top priority at running back since the current coaching staff was brought aboard in January. His primary recruiter was running backs coach Chad Scott.

“Constant was the running back that West Virginia identified early in the process and now they have their man,” said Rivals.
