Miami is potentially in the driver’s seat for one of the best running backs in the nation.

Four-star running back Myson Johnson-Cook out of East St. Louis (IL) has been projected to land at Miami. According to On3’s Allen Trieu, he projects the Hurricanes to land the 6-foot-1, 220-pound running back.

Various recruiting ranking sites have rated Myson as a four-star prospect. 247Sports lists him as the 74th-best player in the 2027 class, the 4th-best running back, and the 3rd-best player in Illinois.

Teams like Missouri, Oregon, Tennessee, Ohio State, Michigan, Texas, Texas A&M, Georgia, LSU, Alabama, and Illinois, along with many other top schools, are also heavily pursuing the four-star recruit.

Myson just recently got off a Miami visit from this past weekend, where CanesInSight’s Sebastian Font caught up with him. You can check out more there on how he liked the Hurricanes visit. However, the On3 staff said it was enough to project him toward Miami.

Myson had a productive junior season. He finished his junior year at East St. Louis High School with 126 carries for 1,341 yards, averaging 10.6 yards per carry, along with 20 touchdowns. He also caught three passes for a total of 45 yards. As a sophomore, he ran for 911 yards and 14 touchdowns, averaging 10.4 yards per carry. He also caught four passes for 27 yards and one touchdown. He helped DeSoto to an 11–3 record and a Texas 6A D-II state quarterfinal appearance.

Jeff Thomas yes, no way Mario offers him. Chad Thomas I think still comes to Miami and either bears down and becomes a legend or transfers out like JoJo. Chick would have basked in the glory of Bro Ball.

People would get mad but if they had to be depth pieces it is what it is, but Jeff Mario would not recruit 100%

Signed under Shannon and was gone before Golden took over. Pretty positive there was no overlap. I don’t even think Shannon acknowledged him as a football kid. Think he tried the goofy track scholly thing with him lol.
