West Virginia has successfully flipped four-star running back Amari Latimer from Wisconsin. Latimer, a highly ranked recruit from Sandy Creek High School in Georgia, had been committed to Wisconsin since June 28 but had been pursued by multiple top programs including Ohio State, Miami, Tennessee, Georgia, and others. He announced his commitment to Wisconsin in July over nearly 60 scholarship offers. Latimer is known as a durable, strong, and fast runner with a career rushing total of nearly 4,700 yards and 74 touchdowns. The Mountaineers' coaching staff made an aggressive late push, leading to his decision to sign with West Virginia, where he is expected to contribute immediately as a true freshman in the 2026 season. Latimer is ranked as the No. 257 overall prospect and No. 19 running back in the 2026 cycle, and he stands 6'0
