Top-30 overall recruit Miles Sadler down to six schools

Miles Sadler, one of the top point guards in the 2026 class, is down to six schools, he told Rivals. Moving forward, the 6-foot, four-star senior out of Bella Vista Prep (AZ) will consider Maryland, Oklahoma, Tennessee, UCLA, USC, and West Virginia.

Sadler has completed official visits to Oklahoma, Tennessee, and West Virginia of his finalists.

Prior to cutting his list down, he also received offers from Arizona State, Cal, Mississippi State, Syracuse, Oklahoma State, Stanford, Washington, Michigan State, SMU, Kansas, Kansas State, and others.

Sadler, a native of Brampton, Ontario Canada, is ranked as the No. 30 overall player in the class, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking — the average of all three recruiting media companies (Rivals, ESPN, 247Sports). He’s also the No. 4 point guard and No. 3 player in the state of Arizona. 

Rivals’ evaluators are higher on Sadler, ranking him 20th nationally and the No. 3 overall point guard.

Sadler talks several programs involved

In a previous interview with Rivals, Miles Sadler discussed several of the schools he’s being recruited by.

TENNESSEE: “Rick Barnes is a very cool guy. He shows his recruits a lot of love and I feel like that one thing about Tennessee is that they’re a family. A lot of their alumni come back through and show love to the program. So, I feel like that’s just a big thing I take into consideration.

“Ja’Kobi Gillespie’s really good. And I feel like watching him practice and all that and seeing the freedom that he has, I feel like me coming in, I could have that being a little bit. I’m about the same height, same frame as him. So I feel like me coming in, I could have that freedom to play my way.

“They still text and talk every day. So I feel like all that is just another thing that’s adding on to the trust I already had in them, so yeah.”

OKLAHOMA: “Coach (Porter) Moser’s a great coach, I feel like, and he calls me every day. So I feel like the relationship that I’m building with him and Clay (Custer) and everyone that’s over there, I feel like that’s a good thing that adds on to it too for me. Seeing (Jeremiah) Fears playing, even knowing the guy that I played against is in the league right now, that’s only just adding to it.”

WEST VIRGINIA: “Yusuf (Ali) used to be my coach when I was 14, when I was playing on Uplay. So I feel like with him there it’s just that relationship that we already have early, and I feel like him being there is just another relationship that’s just going to be easy to build on. I don’t know too much about West Virginia, I feel like the area is all about the school. So I feel like they have a very, very great fan base and stuff like that. I feel like me going there would really make a name for myself.”

UCLA: “They just recently hopped into the mix, but they’re being treated the same as everyone else for me. They’ve already shown a lot of love, been to a couple of pro days, practices, and out to games too. So, seeing them as well is amazing. Most of them were here watching me, and two or three assistants even too.” 

USC: “They told me they were coming to see me. So just little stuff like that, I appreciate a lot. And I definitely always take everything into consideration and always take everything. And I appreciate everything that all these coaches are doing for me because they’re a great program too.”
