MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — West Virginia added a commitment from linebacker/safety prospect Josh Chandler on Sunday after he enjoyed a strong camp showing this week.
The rising senior at McKinley High in Canton, Ohio, he measures anywhere from 5-10 to 6-foot on recruiting profiles and holds offers from Air Force, Western Kentucky, Marshall, Akron and other MAC programs.
“He reminds me a lot of David Long. Athletic and hits hard,” said Rivals writer Keenan Cummings.
Chandler also played running back last season when McKinley finished 6-5. He sat out three games with injuries.
Chandler is a two-star player according to 247Sports and has yet to be rated by Rivals, though Cummings expects that to change after the latest round of evaluations.
