HUGE!! West Virginia lands a FOUR-STAR DB built for the Big 12 Baby!

About this episode

The episode discusses the significance of West Virginia's recruitment of four-star defensive back Carter Bonner and its implications for the team's future.

#WVU #WVUFootball #Mountaineers West Virginia didn’t just land a recruit—they landed a blueprint. In this episode of Locked On West Virginia, we go Full tilt on Carter Bonner, the 2027 defensive back who quietly tells you everything about where this program is headed. This isn’t just about one player. This is about identity. Length. Physicality. Corners who can press, run, tackle—and take the ball away. That’s what Rich Rodriguez and Zac Alley are building, and Bonner fits it clean. We break down: Why this commitment matters more than people realize What Bonner’s size and traits say about WVU’s defensive direction How WVU beat real Power Four competition Why this is a win in Western PA AND nationally And how this sets the tone for the entire 2027 class 🎯 “WVU didn’t just recruit a corner… they recruited a turnover profile.” This is how you build a defense in today’s Big 12. And if this is the type of player WVU keeps stacking? Yeah… this thing could get real, fast. 🔥 HASHTAGS #WVU #WVUFootball #Mountaineers #LockedOnWVU #Recruiting #CollegeFootball #Big12 #RichRod #CFBRecruiting #WestVirginia #HailWV #Defense #DBU #WVURecruiting Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
