Former West Virginia star linebacker Josh Chandler-Semedo is headed to Colorado for his final season of eligibility, he announced via social media Saturday afternoon.

He was the No. 1 ranked linebacker prospect in the On3 2022 Linebacker Transfer Portal Prospect Rankings at the time of his transfer announcement, but has since fallen to No. 4. Overall, he’s ranked as the No. 32  prospect in the On3 2022 Transfer Portal Prospect Rankings.

Chandler-Semedo led the Mountaineers with 110 tackles last season and was an honorable mention All-Big 12 selection. He started the last three seasons for West Virginia, tallying 257 tackles, 13 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, three interceptions, and three forced fumbles during his career.

JT Daniels announces commitment to West Virginia

Former Georgia and USC quarterback JT Daniels will transfer to West Virginia, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel. The former five-star recruit will reunite with former offensive coordinator Graham Harrell, who also served as the quarterbacks coach during his time with the Trojans.

Over four seasons and two transfers, new West Virginia quarterback JT Daniels has played in just 21 games due to injuries. However, when on the field he has produced 4,840 passing yards with 32 touchdowns and 16 interceptions.

After starting his career at USC, the young star lost his job while out with injury as a sophomore. With the Trojans deciding to stick with their new signal caller rather than switch back, he transferred to Georgia as one of the biggest names on the market.

After taking most of 2020 to get healthy before starting the final games, Georgia head coach Kirby Smart declared him the starter for 2021. Then, Daniels missed a start with an oblique injury, and Stetson Bennett started in his place. He was once again sidelined with an injury after two appearances and Bennett became the full-time starter.
