JoVanni chose to end his recruitment in January of 2015 when he pledged his allegiance to Coach Dana Holgorsen and the Mountaineers after being offered a scholarship last September. He also had scholarship offers from Air Force, Amy, Bowling Green, McNeese State, New Mexico State, Texas-San Antonio and UTEP.
