West Virginia Adds Late Roster Addition with Oluwaseyi Omotosho
West Virginia’s roster isn’t quite complete yet! Sources in Morgantown have confirmed that Oluwaseyi Omotosho, an edge rusher from Oregon State, has committed to the Mountaineers. He has already enrolled, begun practicing with the team, and will be the 51st transfer addition and 71st overall new player on the 2025 roster. 
Player Background:
The 6’2″, 245-pound Houston, Texas native began his college career at Wyoming, where he spent three seasons before transferring to Oregon State. Omotosho appeared in 16 games over two seasons for the Beavers, totaling 18 tackles, two sacks, and one forced fumble.
His standout season came in 2022 during his redshirt freshman year at Wyoming, where he recorded 46 tackles and 6.5 sacks in 11 games. His first two years (2020 and 2021) were limited, with just three appearances across those seasons. Omotosho wasn’t heavily recruited out of high school, receiving offers only from Liberty and Wyoming.
Where He Fits:
Omotosho has played primarily as an edge rusher or outside linebacker throughout his college career. At West Virginia, he’ll be a good fit for the Bandit position. He joins a competitive linebacker group, which could become even deeper depending on the outcome of Jimmori Robinson’s lawsuit against the NCAA. Despite the stiff competition, sources indicate that Omotosho chose West Virginia, knowing he’d be part of the program’s intense “Hard Edge” culture.
Eligibility:
Omotosho redshirted in 2021 and didn’t play in 2020, so those years don’t count toward his eligibility. He’s already used three of his four years of eligibility in 2022, 2023, and 2025, leaving him with one season remaining to play.
