Isaiah Cottrell, the 6-foot-9 power forward from Bishop Gorman (NV) High School, announced his commitment to West Virginia on Thursday, Rivals reported Thursday.
“They have showed that they really want me and not just that they need me. Their efforts coming out to Las Vegas and across the country at times to see practice and come and check on me stand out,” he told Rivals.
