Tops add RB Amos to 2020 recruiting class

Western Kentucky reached down into the Peach State for another Class of 2020 football commitment Friday as running back Rashad Amos announced via Twitter that he’ll be joining the Hilltoppers.

Amos, a 6-foot, 210-pound running back, is the third Georgian to join WKU’s 2020 recruiting class after earlier commitments from safety Talique Allen (Fort Valley, Ga.) and athlete Travis Collier (Douglasville, Ga.).

Amos, who is from Tyrone, Ga., picked the Hilltoppers over reported offers from eight other schools, including Ball State, Coastal Carolina and Troy.

Amos has not been rated by 247Sports Composite or Rivals. He is the first running back and seventh commitment in all for the Hilltoppers’ 2020 class.
