The West Virginia Mountaineers football program has added another commitment on the offensive front with a pledge from Athens (Tn.) McMinn County 2026 offensive lineman Camden Goforth.
Goforth, 6-foot-4, 290-pounds, initially committed to Coastal Carolina June 1 but took an official visit to Morgantown over the weekend and that was enough to flip his pledge to the Mountaineers.
He announced the news on social media.
The Rivals.com three-star prospect also held offers from N.C. State, Tulane, Western Kentucky, Memphis, Liberty, Florida Atlantic, Air Force, Georgia State, Navy and several others.
Goforth received a scholarship offer from West Virginia May 23 but had been involved with the program prior to that with offensive line coach Jack Bicknell stopping in to see him during the evaluation period that month.
“My initial reaction was pure excitement. We had known they were very interested since the first contact happened this winter,” Goforth said at the time. “This offer means more to me than people realize. I knew it would happen but didn’t know when.”
West Virginia is recruiting Goforth as an offensive guard or center and the coaches have been impressed with his physicality and strength along the interior.
He becomes the second offensive lineman to commit to the Mountaineers in the 2026 class behind Ramsey (N.J.) Don Bosco Prep 2026 offensive lineman Rhett Morris.
WVSports.com will have more with Goforth in the near future.
