- We certainly can’t have this article without highlighting Jacari Goode Jacari Goode 5'9" | PG St Albans | 2028 WV . Goode has dazzled college coaches in his short time on the Puma Circuit with WV Gold, enough so to land a D1 offer from Illinois State. A rare feat indeed but Goode is a rare breed especially at such a young age. A muscled up point guard who doesn’t get knocked off balance, off time and creates with elite vision. If you see him play its easy to see why he’s considered one of WV’s top prospects and the first of the 2028 class to get offered.
- Preston Luzader Preston Luzader 6'7" | C Clay Battelle | 2025 State WV has been recently offered by D3 Bethany. Luzader is a solid built 6’6″ true post player. This is the first of what we’d expect to be multiple offers for Luzader as he’s located in prime recruiting country for PAC D3 schools.
- Bethany has also early offered Connor Balwanz Connor Balwanz 6'0" | PG North Marion | 2027 State WV . Balwanz left the Bison staff impressed last year at their Elite camp and after impressing yet again in the first elite camp session this year, the Bison wasted no time and giving Balwanz an offer despite having three years of high school left. Balwanz does carry an impressive skill set and could find him self a recruiting target by more.
- Kiir Kuany recently committed to Ohio University after having several mid major D1 offers. Kuany was the top ranked 2024 player in the WV rankings having played at Huntington Prep.
- Kwynsie Pittsnogle has reclassed and committed to 212 Academy in Florida. KP has picked up serious recruiting steam since school season looking much stronger and confident with the ball while playing high level AAU events with HGSL program Mountain State Academy.
- Drew Fitzwater Drew Fitzwater 6'6" | PF Greater Beckley Christian | 2025 State WV has heard from coach Barry Hollenbeck at Regent University in Virginia. Fitzwater has steadily improved and created a recruiting opportunity with adding skill and tools as well as grow into a 6’8″ frame. Should be on lots of watchlists currently.
