Let's be honest, if he were to go to Utah, it won't be for free. They're also going to be paying a large sum as well. Maybe not as much as the other 2, but they're definitely dropping a big bag on him!

Too soon old, too late smart
On same topic, read/heard that IMG has had a talent decline, in that these 16-17-18 year olds can stay at home and collect HS NIL. With this premise, seems like it's harder on the kids to uproot and travel across country to play at IMG. I certainly was not mature enough to do this at that tender age, so must be tougher than originally thought. (Heck, how many kids transfer to a 'home' school because of homesickness). Maybe that'll be another recruiting nugget. How much $ does a kid earn in HS? If it's big, he must be good!?!? Seems we're just getting wierder and wierder....

Yeah, I've made that point about IMG seeing a talent decline in another thread. I think going to IMG worked for some kids but not all, some teenagers are ready to go away to a boarding school/college environment, and it's worked for dozens of kids over the years. But yes, NIL awarded to HSers will make leaving to go to IMG pointless for many kids. Not sure how much kids will earn in HS, since we honestly don't even know how much kids make in college NIL. Nothing is transparent, just speculation.
I guess I don't see it as weird since overseas kids can earn pay checks playing sports as young as 16. These kids classmates can work at McDonalds, Kroger, etc with no issue, but people pay to go see HS football games, the kids should earn something from that since people are going to see them. I sat with close 5000 people watching St. X play Cathedral last, I'm not sure why a portion of my ticket can't go to the players.

Cannot imagine that Ohio HS athletics are much different than California athletics. Only Ohio k-12 funding is determined by property values only, whereas California has a portion guaranteed by property values, the rest comes from the general fund to make up a 'revenue limit'. Much easier to plan (in Cali) as the revenue limit has a guaranteed COLA, which tells one how much extra to budget. Whereas, Ohio athletics has the guaranteed base, but who knows how many houses sell for more, etc. Drifting back to the point. Costs for athletics continue to climb, and revenues not so much. Teacher negotiations always take the bulk of the increase(s), so what's left goes to other necessities (transportation, special ed), leaving a little for athletics. Remember our HS principal (in C'bus) sitting we basketball players down, telling us that we had to win at least two games in City League tournament, in order to 'pay' for uniforms, etc. Cut of the gate I guess.

Was hoping for it to be the home state school, but good luck to him at USC every game they don't play us. We just got in on this one too late to have a realistic chance.

Four-star WR Myles latest to decommit from USC
Four-star USC wide receiver pledge Jerome Myles, ESPN's No. 6 WR in the 2025 class, has decommitted from the Trojans.
Four-star WR Jerome Myles latest to decommit from USC
Four-star USC wide receiver pledge Jerome Myles has decommitted from the Trojans, he announced on social media Sunday night.Myles, a 6-foot-3, 220-pound pass catcher from Draper, Utah, is ESPN's No. 6 wide receiver and the No. 33 overall prospect in the 2025 ESPN 300. Committed to USC since September, Myles was the highest-ranked member of the Trojans' 2025 class, which has now seen nine ESPN 300 recruits decommit from the program in the 2025 recruiting cycle.
"After talking with my family and god I've decided to decommit from the University of Southern California please respect my decision," Myles wrote in an Instagram story Sunday night.
Myles' decommitment comes one day after he visited Texas A&M for the Aggies' Week 14 home game against Texas. Texas A&M was a runner-up for his pledge when Myles initially committed to USC on Sept. 18, and Saturday marked his second trip to see the Aggies this fall.
