West Virginia is looking to round out the offensive line class and the Mountaineers took a big step with a commitment from Macon (Ga.) Northeast 2023 offensive lineman Johnny Williams.

Williams, 6-foot-7, 305-pounds, selected the Mountaineers over offers from Georgia, Florida State, North Carolina State, Georgia Tech, Oregon, Virginia, Syracuse, Duke, Arizona State and more.
