West Virginia had been active targeting linebackers in the transfer market this spring and landed an experienced piece to the roster build in Southern Illinois linebacker Ben Bogle.
Bogle, 6-foot-2, 225-pounds, entered the transfer portal April 17 and the Mountaineers didn’t waste much time jumping into the mix with a scholarship offer that same day. Others including Virginia Tech, Oklahoma State, Wake Forest and South Florida also were among those that offered.

The Florida native then scheduled an official visit to Morgantown April 23 and committed to the program per multiple reports.
Bogle spent three seasons with the Salukis and is coming off a highly productive season in 2024 where he started the final ten games of the year with 87 tackles, 16.
