West Virginia to Host Texas Transfer Edge Justice Finkley

West Virginia will have an opportunity to impress a highly coveted transfer edge rusher in the coming days. The Mountaineers will host Texas transfer Justice Finkley on Jan. 7, as confirmed by the A&P Sports Agency on Sunday.

Finkley (6-foot-2, 250 pounds), an Alabama native who was once one of Texas’ top recruits, only appeared in six games and saw his play count reduced in 2024. He entered the transfer portal on Dec. 13.

After recording seven tackles as a freshman in 2022, Finkley had his most productive season occur in 2023. He played in all of Texas’ 14 games while totaling 14 tackles, three tackles for a loss, two sacks and a forced fumble.

Finkley has several other upcoming visits scheduled, including one with Minnesota to start the week. He has also been in contact with Georgia Tech.
