Silsbee (Texas) four-star wide receiver Dre’lon Miller has a pair of official visits locked in for next month, and then he plans to make his college commitment.

Miller announced on Saturday that he will commit June 29, which comes just a few weeks after his visits to Miami (June 2) and USC (June 16).

LSU and Texas A&M are two others in contention after unofficial visits this spring, but he is yet to lock in an official with either program.

After an expert pick in favor of USC from WeAreSC.com’s Scott Schrader, the Trojans are the team trending for his commitment in the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM) with a little less than a month to go.

Miller was on campus at USC earlier this spring, and Lincoln Riley wasted no time making an impression on the Texas four-star playmaker.

“I hear from USC probably once a week and they came out to watch me play one week during a game (in the fall) and then also for a practice, and they’re showing me how interested they really are in me,” the On300 athlete told On3’s Sam Spiegelman. … I know Lincoln Riley knows how to get players like me the ball. They have the best offensive coach in the country and (I like) the way they throw the ball and put players in positions to be the best.”

Miller is ready to make his commitment

While he has enjoyed the recruiting process, Miller told Spiegelman that he is excited to make his decision and have the process over with.

“It’s definitely been a fun experience right now,” he said. “LSU and Texas A&M, Colorado and Florida are all recruiting me the hardest right now. It’s been fun and those are the teams coming the hardest right now. It’s (the process) winding down. … Time is ticking.”

Miller is the No. 76 overall prospect and No. 14 wide receiver in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 14-ranked player in the Lone Star State.
