3-star WR Josiah Phillips commits to BYU

Chatsworth (Calif.) Sierra Canyon three-star wide receiver Josiah Phillips has committed to BYU.

Phillips is the No. 888 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

“I would first like to thank God for all the blessings He has given me because none of this is possible without Him,” Phillips said in a social media statement. “Thank you to my family for being the biggest support system that anyone could ask for. Mainly, I would like to thank my dad for his endless sacrifices and putting me in the best positions possible to be great. I would also like to thank every coach who has coached me through my years of football. Lastly, thank you to all the coaches who recruited me and believed in me even after taking a year away from football. With that being said I’ve decided to commit to Brigham Young University.”

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $5.9k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

The 2023 Cougars recruiting class ranks in the top 70 of the 2023 On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Ranking.
