WVU Defensive Lineman Quintin Goins Enters Transfer Portal

West Virginia University defensive lineman Quintin Goins announced he will enter the NCAA Transfer Portal.

After redshirting during the 2024 season, Goins saw action in one game last fall, making his collegiate debut in the season opener against Robert Morris, where he recorded a solo tackle.

A native of Charlestown, West Virginia, Goins prepped at Jefferson High School and was a standout at the prep level. He earned Class AAA First Team All-State honors and was named First Team All-Eastern Panhandle Athletic Conference, establishing himself as one of the top defensive linemen in the region coming out of high school.

West Virginia has signed defensive lineman Will LeBlanc from Texas Permian Basin out of the transfer portal as the staff continues to schedule visits and add to the defensive front.
