Emmitt Matthews Jr., the 6-foot-7, 185-pound small forward from Wilson (WA) High School who de-committed from UConn in March, signed a grant-in-aid for the 2018-19 year at West Virginia.
After decommitting from UConn after the school named Dan Hurley head coach, he also considered Oklahoma, Washington and Oregon State.
“It is the perfect situation for me,” he told Rivals.com. “They believe in me which is the greatest value, “With Teddy [Allen] leaving, I have the chance to start on the wing the day that I get onto campus and they want to get out into transition more.”
This past season, he averaged 22.3 points, 9.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 2.3 blocks per game and led his team deep into the state playoffs for the third consecutive season.
