Miles doesn’t have a ranking yet on recruiting databases like 247Sports and On3. However, the rising high-school junior has two seasons left to improve his notoriety.
This fall was Miles’ first season on Hillside High School’s varsity team. He played two-ways, though he starred on defense. Despite playing in just five games in 2024, Miles snagged three interceptions and made five total tackles. Offensively, he grabbed nine passes for 57 yards and two touchdowns.
The Orange now have three verbal signees in their 2027 recruiting class. Miles joins quarterback Justin Dixon, a Maryland-based prospect, and Melbourne, Florida, native Tank White — who’s listed as an athlete, according to 247Sports.
