Elite 2024 QB Dylan Raiola excited for return to Clemson tomorrow

Chandler (Ariz.) High sophomore quarterback Dylan Raiola is one of the most coveted quarterbacks in the country — regardless of class. Raiola already has more than two dozen offers. While he isn’t narrowing anything down, he is starting to sort through his top teams and take unofficial visits.

Early on, he lists Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, USC, Oregon, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Texas and Nebraska as his top teams. And it’s Clemson that will host him and his family tomorrow on an unofficial visit.

The elite signal-caller has already visited the Tigers last summer, but is eager to get on campus. For On3 Director of Recruiting Chad Simmons’ full interview with Raiola, check out the embedded video below.

“I think you just look at the man Coach Swinney is,” Raiola said. “He’s a Christian man, and I’m a Christian myself. So his program is going to be founded on that. And you can just tell from talking to Coach Streeter that they do everything right. And if they can’t, they strive to do everything right. That’s a big part of why Clemson is up there for me, and I’m excited to get back out there.”

Dylan Raiola has connected with new OC Brandon Streeter

Raiola has been in contact with Clemson for the better part of a year, mainly talking to then-quarterbacks coach Brandon Streeter. But with his promotion to offensive coordinator this winter, Streeter has continued building that relationship. He previously visited Raiola’s school in Texas and has also tripped out to Arizona, where Raiola will play for the next two years.

“He’s awesome,” Raiola said of Streeter. “I talk to him every week and a half now, and the relationship we’ve built from when I first got out to campus until now [is good]. He visited my head coach in Texas when I was living out there, and my head coach told me he heard great things. Them making it a priority to come visit me all the way in Arizona means something.”

Raiola went more in-depth on his other top schools last week, including quotes about each of the schools in his top nine. You can read that full story by following this link. He is ranked as the No. 14 player overall and the second-ranked quarterback in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Dylan Raiola currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $12,300. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time. Raiola ranks No. 1,029 in the High School Football NIL Rankings.
