David Beaty’s 2018 class just keeps getting better.
Miles Emery, a 6’5” 235 lb defensive end (per 247Sports) has verbally committed to the Jayhawks. He chose Kansas over offers from Oklahoma, Louisville, and Iowa State.
A consensus three-star recruit, he is listed by 247Sports and Rivals as the #2 recruit in the state of Kansas. Kansas was the first D1 program to offer the Blue Valley North star, but despite follow up offers from other programs, Emery gave his verbal to coaches today while on campus in Lawrence for a football camp.
If the class holds together, it will be KU’s best recruiting class in the history of recruiting services. The class is currently 10 pledges strong, led by five-star WR Devonta Jason and is ranked #19 by Rivals and #26 by 247Sports. However, despite the verbal commitments, signing day is still eight months away, and Kansas currently has the kind of commits that are going to be hounded by plenty of other schools.
