The Hilltoppers' 2017 recruiting class keeps getting richer with talent with the new addition of Central Gwinnett (Ga.) running back Joshua Samuel.

The 6-foot, 200-pound prospect announced his commitment on Twitter and pledged to WKU after an unofficial visit this past weekend for the Florida International game.

Samuel received an offer from the Hilltoppers back on September 11th, he also held offers from Central Michigan, Minnesota, UTSA, and others.

The two-star rated prospect becomes the 20th commitment for Western Kentucky and the second running back to join the class, joining fellow Georgia product Caleb Huntley out of Locust Grove.
