MORGANTOWN — West Virginia and Rich Rodriguez’s streak of adding players in the transfer portal continued Wednesday.

Memphis safety Kamari Wilson has reportedly committed to the Mountaineers, according to On3’s Pete Nakos. Wilson will be WVU’s 11th portal addition this cycle.

Wilson is a journeyman of college football. Wilson started at Florida, where he played for two seasons. He played in 16 games in those two years. Wilson played the most snaps out of any true freshman in 2023 (311). He had 40 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, a pass breakup and recovered a fumble.

Wilson transferred to Arizona State in 2024. He helped the Sun Devils reach the College Football Playoffs and appeared in 13 games. He didn’t do much and had 11 tackles, with six being solo.

Wilson hit the portal again, transferring to Memphis. He played in every game in 2025, including the bowl game against North Carolina State. Wilson totaled 85 tackles, had a sack, forced to fumbles and recovered one of them. He also had two interceptions and four pass breakups.

The former IMG Academy player was a 4-star out of high school and is now a 3-star in the transfer portal. He’s rated as the 94th-best safety in the portal, according to 247Sports.

Wilson was a needed addition for the Mountaineers. A lot of the secondary has left in the transfer portal, or graduated and run out of eligibility. Wilson is a veteran defensive back who should make an immediate impact for the Mountaineers in 2026. He’s a ballhawk that should help to defensive coordinator Zac Alley’s turnover quota.

Wilson is one of the older additions Rodriguez has made. Most of his additions are younger, so he can develop them and make them into impact players down the road. Wilson joining the team seems more like a win-now type of move.
