JUST IN: WVU Announces Three-Year Double Signing as Kyah Watson Continues Roster Rebuild
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — The West Virginia Mountaineers have just dropped a game-changing bombshell on the college basketball world. In a bold and strategic move that’s lighting up the Big 12 radar, WVU has announced a three-year double signing under the leadership of head coach Kyah Watson. The message couldn’t be clearer: Watson is on a mission to rebuild, reload, and return the Mountaineers to national prominence—and she’s doing it with lightning speed.
This latest announcement marks another significant chapter in Watson’s early tenure, and fans across Mountaineer Nation are buzzing. The double signing brings in not one, but two elite prospects—each on a multi-year track—signaling a long-term vision that prioritizes chemistry, growth, and winning. It’s not just about stacking talent—it’s about building a cohesive, powerhouse program brick by brick.
Sources close to the program say both signees were highly sought after, with multiple Power Five offers on the table. But they chose WVU for one reason: belief in the vision Kyah Watson is creating in Morgantown. Known for her fire, tactical mind, and player-first leadership, Watson has quickly built a culture that players want to be part of—and this signing is proof.
“Coach Watson laid out a vision that gave me chills,” one of the signees said. “She’s not just talking about winning. She’s building a legacy. And I want to be part of it.”
These two additions are expected to make an immediate impact. One is a high-scoring guard with explosive athleticism and three-point range that stretches defenses. The other is a physical post presence with elite rebounding instincts and shot-blocking prowess. Together, they provide a balance of finesse and power, skill and grit—the kind of duo that could transform WVU into a Big 12 contender faster than anyone imagined.
This move comes just weeks after Watson teased a “new era” on social media, promising fans that major changes were on the horizon. With this double signing, she has delivered—loudly.
The timing couldn’t be better. As other programs scramble in the offseason chaos of the transfer portal and NIL market, WVU is planting its flag in stability, commitment, and long-term growth. It’s a statement that the Mountaineers aren’t just chasing short-term success—they’re building something sustainable and special.
Fans can expect even more fireworks in the coming months, as Watson continues to reshape the roster with her trademark energy and fearless approach. One thing’s for certain: WVU is no longer a team to watch quietly—they’re a force to be reckoned with.
The rebuild is no longer coming.
It’s already here.
