West Virginia Mountaineers

For the second time on Sunday, the West Virginia Mountaineers have gained a commitment out of the transfer portal. This time, it's former Texas offensive lineman Malik Agbo (6'4", 300 lbs).

Agbo has played in 32 career games for the Longhorns, mostly as a backup, on special teams, and jumbo packages where he's helped pave way for the ground game or add extra pass protection.

The Federal Way, Washington native was a four-star recruit coming out of high school and picked Texas over offers from Alabama, Arizona, Arizona State, Auburn, BYU, Cal, Colorado, Florida, LSU, Miami, Michigan, Oklahoma, Oregon, Oregon State, Penn State, Tennessee, USC, Utah, Vanderbilt, Washington, Washington State, and a few others.

He will have two years of eligibility remaining.
