Armoni Weaver-Bomar, a 5‑foot‑9, 170‑pound redshirt freshman, joined the West Virginia Mountaineers after a standout high school career that saw him excel at cornerback, receiver and special teams.
Versatility as a Weapon
During his senior year he logged 26 catches for 541 yards and seven touchdowns, earning a three‑star rating and a spot on South Carolina’s AAAA All‑State team.
He redshirted in 2025, appearing in just two games, but the experience gave him a glimpse of the Big 12 stage and a chance to absorb the playbook under veteran coaches.
Now, with the Mountaineers’ receiving corps crowded, Weaver‑Bomar is being groomed as a utility player. Coach Rich Rodriguez has hinted at moving him around the formation to exploit his speed and agility.
Practicing opposite his brother, a cornerback, adds a unique dynamic to the room, fostering competition and camaraderie that could accelerate his development.
Despite the depth at receiver, the coaching staff believes his athleticism can translate into a versatile weapon in the passing game and on special teams.
If the plan unfolds as intended, Weaver‑Bomar could become a multi‑dimensional threat, providing the Mountaineers with flexibility as they aim for a competitive season.
