Campbell set to transfer to WVU

West Virginia is set to add a transfer wide receiver to the football program in former Florida State five-star pass catcher George Campbell.

Campbell originally intended to spend a graduate transfer year at Penn State but that recently fell through leaving Morgantown as a possible destination.

He spent four season with the Seminoles, one of which was a redshirt, catching 13 passes for 206 yards and had his best year in 2017 where he accounted for 122 of those yards and almost half of the catches.

The 6-foot-4, 200-pound, wide receiver will step into a situation at West Virginia where the Mountaineers have to replace the top three options from a season ago and have a lack of experience down the roster outside of T.J. Simmons and possibly Temple transfer Sean Ryan. That could provide an opportunity for Campbell to play immediately.

As a graduate transfer, Campbell would be immediately eligible to play this coming fall.

The news was first reported by Tampa Bay Times writer Bob Putnam.

WVSports.com will have more with Campbell in the near future.
