Coach Neal Brown and the rest of the Mountaineer staff have stayed busy over the weekend. St. Louis linebacker Lanell Carr looks to have chosen West Virginia over Missouri.
According to 247Sports, there was a 50/50 shot that Carr was going to choose West Virginia or Missouri.
The 6-3 230 pound outside linebacker also held offers from Indiana, Arkansas, Georgia Tech and Iowa. While in Morgantown for his official visit he went ahead and decided to commit, despite having an official visit with Indiana scheduled for next weekend.
Carr announced his commitment to West Virginia with a tweet on Sunday:
