Indiana basketball scored a major talent upgrade with Jasai Miles’ commitment. The 6’6″ sophomore guard from Miami brings an impressive resume to Bloomington after averaging 15.4 points and 6.8 rebounds per game at North Florida, where he transformed from a zero-star recruit to a conference standout in just two seasons.
Miles represents a perfect addition to Darian DeVries’ evolving roster. His ability to create his own shot, combined with his deep shooting range, gives the Hoosiers a versatile wing who can stretch defenses. Coming off breakthrough performances against Georgia Tech and Georgia Southern, Miles arrives with momentum and two years of eligibility remaining.
Jasai Miles Goes From Overlooked Recruit to Big Ten Transfer
Miles’ journey to Indiana illustrates his determination and development. Despite playing varsity basketball at Miami Country Day since eighth grade and collecting numerous all-state honors, Miles was largely overlooked during recruitment.
North Florida recognized his potential when many didn’t, and the investment paid dividends as Miles blossomed into an Atlantic Sun Conference third-team selection.

His sophomore campaign showcased remarkable growth across all statistical categories. Starting all 32 games, Miles led the Ospreys in scoring while attempting 9.2 3-pointers per game. His high-volume shooting, combined with improved efficiency, demonstrates his evolution from role player to offensive centerpiece during his two seasons at North Florida.
What Miles Brings to Bloomington
Miles offers Indiana a three-level scoring threat with significant rebounding upside. His quick release and comfort shooting off the dribble make him dangerous in transition and half-court sets.
When examining his game film, his confidence stands out, as Miles isn’t afraid to take big shots in crucial moments.
As an athletic wing with a nose for rebounds, Miles consistently outworks opponents around the glass. His 6.8 rebounds per game as a guard highlight his determination and physical tools. While primarily known for scoring, his developing playmaking skills could expand further in Indiana’s system as he adjusts to playing alongside fellow talented scorers.
Miles will need to adapt from being North Florida’s primary option to fitting alongside Tucker DeVries, Reed Bailey, and Trent Sisley.
This transition likely means more off-ball movement and defensive responsibility, areas where his athleticism should translate well. His shooting volume may decrease, but efficiency could improve with more selective opportunities.

The Hoosiers are getting a player whose trajectory points upward. Miles’ dramatic improvement between freshman and sophomore seasons suggests he’s still discovering his ceiling.
If he continues this development curve in the Big Ten, Indiana fans might soon see Miles joining the program’s long tradition of standout wings who can score from anywhere on the court.
