12 THOUSAND YARDS and STOLEN from PITT! Matt Sieg Picks WVU!.

#Pitt #Panthers #WVU In one of the biggest recruiting coups of the 2026 cycle, West Virginia has flipped longtime Penn State commit Matt Sieg, the explosive two-way star from Fort Cherry (McDonald, Pa.). The 6-foot-0, 185-pound Rivals Industry four-star (No. 40 safety nationally) picked the Mountaineers over Penn State, Pitt, Notre Dame, Virginia Tech, and Indiana in a late-game decision that sent shockwaves through the region.Sieg, who racked up 12,592 total yards and 139 touchdowns in high school while earning first-team all-conference honors on both offense and defense, gives Rich Rodriguez and staff an elite athlete capable of impacting the roster immediately — potentially on both sides of the ball. An early enrollee, Sieg brings elite speed, physicality, ball skills, and a punishing tackling style to Morgantown.This is a signature in-state-area win for West Virginia, plucking one of Western Pennsylvania’s most productive and versatile players away from multiple Power 4 suitors. #Pitt #Panthers #WVU #Mountaineers #big12 #collegefootball #Flip #recruiting #signingday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
