2024 point guard Tenner commits to West Virginia

West Virginia has added the first high school pledge under new head coach Darian DeVries with a commitment from Memphis (Tn.) 2024 guard KJ Tenner.

Tenner, 6-foot, initially signed with Drake but was released from his letter of intent after DeVries departure only to follow him to Morgantown.

That led to interest from a long list of schools including Vanderbilt, Appalachian State, James Madison, St. Louis, Rice, UT Chattanooga, North Alabama and others.

He is expected to play point guard for the Mountaineers.

When he signed with Drake, Tenner held offers from Arkansas State, Bradley, Central Michigan, Murray State, North Alabama, and Texas State.

With Tenner now in the fold, West Virginia is now up to eight scholarship players for the 2024 season.
