Penn State football offers five-star WR in 2025 recruiting class, Ole Miss decommit

The Penn State football team suffered multiple setbacks on the recruiting trail over the past few weeks. Specifically in the 2025 recruiting class, at wide receiver where the Nittany Lions missed on multiple top targets. But the silver lining for Penn State is early National Signing Day is still five months away and Marques Hagans has now tossed his hat in the ring for 2025 five-star WR Jerome Myles by offering him a scholarship.

Jerome Myles is a five-star talent according to 247Sports. The West Jordan (Utah) native stands at 6-3 215 pounds. The past few months for Myles have had their fair share of ups and downs. He made his commitment to Ole Miss in April but then decided to decommit from the Rebels in June.

He took official visits to Ole Miss, Utah, and Texas A&M. Now, according to his recruiting profile on On3 he will travel to Ann Arbor this weekend for an unofficial visit with Michigan. The Penn State football team is hoping to get a chance to have Myles visit Happy Valley as well.

On Saturday, he announced on Twitter / X that Penn State had officially offered the five-star pass catcher a scholarship. This comes after the Nittany Lions missed on 2025 recruiting class prospects such as Lex Cyrus, Taz Williams, and several others over the past several weeks. Now, Penn State has set its eyes on an elite prospect.

What do the experts say about Myles?

Syndication: York Daily Record

While his ranking speaks for itself the recruiting experts have high expectations for Myles at the next level. According to 247Sports, Jerome Myles is the No. 1 player in Utah and the No. 5 wide receiver in the 2025 recruiting class (No. 30 nationally).

Greg Biggins a National Recruiting Analyst for 247Sports has high praise for the five-star talent.

“Myles is one of the top receivers in the country and has a ton of upside. He has a rare combination of size, speed and body control and reminds us a bit of former Washington All-American wide out and recent No. 9 pick of the Chicago Bears, Rome Odunze. He has an athletic 6-2, 210 pound frame and is a true deep threat who can get behind any defense. He has a track background with personal bests this Spring of 10.57-100m and 21.30-200m.

“He’s not just track fast, his speed carries over to the football field and he can routinely blow past opposing corners who are giving him huge cushions. He adjusts well to the football over either shoulder, shows the ability to change gears and knows how to set up an opposing corner. He has a large catch radius and shows the ability to make contested catches over a corner or catch a ball down by his ankles.”
