Linebacker commit likes WVU’s aerospace engineering program

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Three-star outside linebacker Jared Bartlett did his research before camping at West Virginia in late July. His visit provided the icing.

A product of Collins Hill High in Suwanee, Ga., Bartlett committed to the Mountaineers on Thursday night, becoming their 13th pledge overall for 2019 and the fourth from Georgia. At 6-foot-2 and 210 pounds, Bartlett is coming off a 78-tackle junior season in which he made six sacks and forced two fumbles.

The younger brother of Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Stephon Tuitt holds other Power Five offers from Alabama, North Carolina, Maryland, Purdue, Syracuse and Rutgers.
