OFFICIAL: LB Ja'Corey Hammett Signs with West Virginia

The Mountaineers have received a National Letter of Intent from Jacorey Hamett

Ja'Corey Hammett

Height: 6'3" Weight: 205

Hometown: Miami, Florida

High school: Northwestern

Power Five Offers:

Kentucky, Miami, Nebraska, Pitt, South Carolina, Tennessee.

Group of Five Offers:

Coastal Carolina, FIU, Florida Atlantic, North Texas, UAB, Western Kentucky.

Evaluation:

The first thing that jumps off the film is his quickness off the line and his straight-line speed that allows him to catch up to a play. Hammett is quick around the edge and maintains good body control to make plays in the backfield with the look of a natural pass rusher.

Playing time projection:

Hammett is talented to make an immediate impact but I think it will take a year before he gets settled in.
