OFFICIAL: DL Corey McIntyre Jr. Signs with West Virginia

The Mountaineers have received a National Letter of Intent from Corey McIntyre Jr.

DL Corey McIntyre Jr.

Height: 6'4" Weight: 280 lbs

Hometown: Port Saint Lucie, FL

High school: Treasure Coast

Power Five Offers:  Indiana, Mississippi State, North Carolina State, Pitt, and Washington State.

Group of Five Offers: Coastal Carolina, Florida Atlantic, Liberty, and South Florida.

Evaluation:

McIntyre is big, mobile, and ferociously attacks ball carriers. He can line up on the inside or outside and can withstand double teams. The Treasure Coast High School product has solid eye discipline, locating the ball in the backfield and tossing lineman to the side, and the strength to push the pocket into the quarterback. Additionally, he continues to chase the play, keeping himself engaged on the field. 

Playing time projection:

Could play his way into four games next season but will almost certainly redshirt. He'll be viewed, I believe, as a depth piece for the first couple years of his career before having a chance to truly compete for a bigger role/starting job.
