WVU Football Schedules Visit With 1,000+ Yard JUCO Running Back Prospect

After struggling with injuries and eligibility issues across a running back room once considered one of the deepest positions on the roster, WVU football has been down their top two running backs for most of the season and have even converted one defensive player into a short-yardage back. Now, the Mountaineers are looking to address the need through recruiting.

According to multiple sources, Martavious Boswell of Copiah-Lincoln C.C. – who is a three-star JUCO running back currently ranked as the second-best JUCO prospect at his position according to 247Sports – has set up three official visits with Power 4 programs in the coming weeks, with one of those teams being the Mountaineers.
