West Jordan (Utah) Corner Canyon four-star wide receiver Jerome Myles has decommitted from Ole Miss, he announced on Monday afternoon.

He was pledged to the Rebels since April 28 and was their second highest-ranked commit in the class overall. Myles has taken official visits to Utah and Texas A&M this month and is expected to visit Michigan in July.

Myles is the No. 119 overall prospect and No. 15 wideout in the 2025 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the top-ranked player in Utah.

First, I would like to thank God for the position He has put me in. Thank you to my family, coaches, and everyone in my corner for their support. I would like to thank Ole Miss and Coach McDonald for the time and effort they put into recruiting me and for welcoming me with open arms. However, after much consideration, I would like to announce that I am decommitting from the University of Ole Miss and will be reopening my recruitment,” Myles wrote in his announcement via X.

Rebels lose big blue-chip commitment

With Myles no longer in the mix, the Rebels now have five blue-chippers in their 2025 class — which ranks No. 19 in the nation and No. 10 in the SEC, according to the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings.

Quitman (Miss.) four-star running back Akylin Dear remains in the class as a top-40 recruit and the No. 2 RB in the nation. Despite taking OVs to Alabama and Texas A&M this month, Dear still checks in as the top pledge for Lane Kiffin and Co.

Myles was one of five prospects who committed to Ole Miss in April. While he’s back on the board, the other four continue to bolster the class, including Horn Lake (Miss.) Lake Cormorant four-star linebacker Jarcoby Hopson, a top-200 recruit and top-20 player at his position. Gautier (Miss.) Saraland four-star WR Dillon Alfred, Daphne (Ala.) three-star EDGE Talib Graham and Buford (Ga.) three-star tight end Hayden Bradley also joined the fold that month.

Other top commits in the class include Hattiesburg (Miss.) Oak Grove four-star defensive lineman Andrew Maddox, Auburndale (Fla.) Lakeland four-star safety Keon Young and Opelousas (La.) three-star EDGE Corey Amos.
