Murphy attended Hillgrove High School in Georgia, the same school that produced NFL players like Bradley Chubb, Kenyan Drake and Evan Engram. The top-five national prospect burst onto the scene in his first year in Death Valley, earning Freshman All-American notice with a team-high 12 tackles for loss (with four sacks among 41 total stops in 12 games, six starts). Murphy again led the Tigers with 14 tackles for loss and seven sacks in 2021 (38 tackles, two pass breakups, two forced fumbles in 13 games, 10 starts) to garner second-team All-ACC accolades. He earned first-team honors in 2022 by tying for the team lead with 6.5 sacks (among 40 total tackles, 11 for loss, two pass breakups) in 13 games with 11 starts. Myles' father, Willard, played football at Chattanooga. -- by Chad Reuter
