O’Laughlin may be the hidden gem in this recruiting class. Dana Holgorsen has been looking to incorporate the tight end into West Virginia’s offense, and Mike seems to be the perfect fit. O’Laughlin has great hands and isn’t afraid to go up for the ball if needed.
O’Laughlin was recently courted by Ohio State, but didn’t hesitate to shut them down and let them know that he was 100% Mountaineer.
