West Virginia landed a big commitment on Sunday from class of 2022 safety Jacolby Spells and more good news may be on the way.

Class of 2022 running back Justin Williams (Dallas, GA) is set to make his decision today and it appears that the Mountaineers are in the driver seat to land him.

"It was a great visit [to WVU]," Williams told Mountaineer Maven in June. "I see myself in the offense, the coaching staff was awesome, and it's just a great family environment. Following the visit, I put them right at the top with Nebraska."

Williams has also taken official visits to Louisville and Nebraska in addition to his trip to Morgantown in June.

However, over the last couple of weeks, West Virginia has risen to the top. Williams told Mountaineer Maven that "WVU has the edge" in his recruitment. 

"I have a great relationship with the coaches and they have made me a priority throughout my recruitment. I think WVU would be a great opportunity for me to excel and push myself. There's a lot of great talent in the Big 12."

Williams currently holds offers from Arkansas, Duke, Kansas, Kansas State, Louisville, Michigan State, Minnesota, NC State, Ole Miss, Pitt, Tennessee, USC, Vanderbilt, and several others.

Right now, it seems like a two-team race between West Virginia and Nebraska. A race that WVU is currently ahead in.
