Jalen Bridges, the 6-foot-7 small forward from West Virginia, committed to the Mountaineers Monday following an official visit over the weekend, and will enroll this year.

Bridges had initially planned to do a post-graduate year at Scotland Campus (PA) before enrolling at West Virginia in 2020.

“I’m enrolling this year,” he said on Twitter.

“Bridges brings great length, versatility , scoring and great potential to WVU,” Scotland Campus coach Chris Chaney said. “He has the tools to be a special player. He’s a great kid and comes from a great family.”

Ranked the No. 18 small forward nationally by 247Sports.com, he also considered Alabama, Xavier, Miami and Indiana.
