Utah beats out BYU, others for in-state 2024 edge rusher
Utah has put up a fence around Corner Canyon High School in Draper. Quarterback Isaac Wilson and tackle Isaiah Garcia — the top-ranked Utah recruits in the 2024 class — are both Utah pledges.
On Saturday, the Utes pulled another from the school on the defensive side of the football.
Edge rusher Kash Dillon announced on his Instagram page that he has committed to the Utes. Dillon had a final five that also included BYU, Arizona, Arizona State, and Washington. He’ll follow his teammates to Salt Lake City to begin his college career.
Dillon took official visits to Utah (in April) and BYU (June). He’s been high on the Utes’ board all throughout the process.
At 6-foot-5 and 220 pounds, Dillon has the physical tools to be a disruptive force on the edge for the Utes. He’s been exactly that for Corner Canyon. As a junior, Dillon was credited with 80 tackles, 17 tackles for loss, six sacks, and a forced fumble in 14 games.
He’s a 3-star prospect in the industry-generated 247 Composite and ranked as the No. 62 edge defender in the 2024 class. Dillon sits at No. 873 in the national player rankings and is the No. 10 recruit from the state of Utah.
With Dillon’s pledge, Utah’s class grows to nine known commitments. You can see his highlight tape below, via Hudl:
