DRAPER — One of the state's top-rated recruits in the Class of 2025 didn't take long to pledge his collegiate loyalty.
Corner Canyon wide receiver Jerome Myles, Utah's No. 2-rated prospect by 247Sports, committed to head coach Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss after a weekend visit to Oxford, he announced Sunday night.
The 6-foot-2, 205-pound four-star recruit will follow former Corner Canyon quarterback Jaxson Dart to the Rebels, with visits to Arkansas, Cal and Utah scheduled for June.
Myles, a track star who caught 19 passes for 486 yards and six touchdowns in five games due to a broken ankle last year for the 6A champion Chargers, also had offers from San Jose State, Arizona, BYU and Hawaii, among others, before publicly pledging to Ole Miss.
100% committed!! Truly blessed to be in this position thank you to everyone who has helped me get to this point!! 🤍🦈 @Lane_Kiffin@OleMissFB@Tommypernetti15@BlairAngulo@CoachGMcDonald@JaxsonDart@KjarEric@AJTownsend13@bcavi68@CCHSFOOTBALL_pic.twitter.com/aVEtHsqwal

"They offered me before the visit and they told me I would play in this offense like DK Metcalf did," Myles told 247Sports, revealing he had silently committed to the Utes. "I ended up decommitting from Utah and committing to Ole Miss. It was pretty difficult, but I feel the family, community and the offense fits me."
Myles also runs track for the Chargers, posting a 21.30 200-meter dash and a 10.57 100-meter in recent weeks.
He's the third top-25 recruit in Utah committed in the Class of 2025, joining Weber linebacker Tyler Payne (BYU) and Lone Peak tight end Bear Tenney (Nebraska), according to 247Sports.
