The West Virginia Mountaineers land commitment for another wide receiver who entered the transfer portal.
During his freshman year, he made three catches for 28 yards, mostly contributing on special teams. His offensive role grew slightly in his redshirt freshman year, as he totaled seven receptions for 159 yards and a touchdown.
A former consensus four-star recruit, Hamilton was recruited by a wide range of programs including Auburn, Boston College, Clemson, Colorado, Duke, Florida, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kentucky, Louisville, Maryland, Michigan State, NC State, Notre Dame, Oregon, Penn State, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and many others.
Hamilton will have three years of eligibility left. He is the sixth wide receiver to transfer to WVU this offseason, joining Jeff Weimer (Idaho State), Jarod Bowie (Jacksonville State), Cam Vaughn (Jacksonville State), Oran Singleton Jr. (Eastern Michigan), and Cyrus Traugh (Youngstown State).
Head coach Rich Rodriguez has frequently mentioned the need to add depth to the receiver position, so it’s likely that two or possibly three more transfers will be added in the near future.
