Five-Star QB Dylan Raiola of Buford (GA) High announced his commitment to Nebraska.

The 6-foot-3, 220 QB had been committed to Georgia since May.

On3 reported on Monday night that Raiola would take an official visit to Nebraska December 15-17th.

The Peach State quarterback joins coach Matt Rhule and the Cornhuskers’ top 25 2024 class. He is accompanied by four-star tight end Carter Nelson, four-star interior offensive lineman Grant Brix, and others.

Dylan Raiola Recruiting Profile

Raiola ranks as the No. 17 player in the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He also tabs in as the No. 3 quarterback and the No. 3 player in Georgia.

Scouting Summary

On3’s Scouting and Rankings Team writes about him as a college recruit:

“Advanced arm talent with the ability to make a wide variety of high-level throws as a high school signal-caller. Was identified as a top arm talent and quarterback in the 2024 cycle early on in his high school career. Physically developed at around 6-foot-3, 220 pounds with a 9.75-inch hand. Has continued to add mass later on in his high school career. Owns a natural, loose throwing motion with arm dexterity to deliver off-platform and from multiple arm slots. Showed a deep catalog of throws as a sophomore. Easily drives the ball to all levels of the field. Showed off one of the cycle’s best deep balls at the Elite 11 Finals. Played both under center and in the shotgun as a junior.”

“Ahead of the curve as a ball-handler and in the quick passing game. Shows good footwork and awareness in the pocket. Capable of creative plays in the face of pressure. Completed 64% of his passes for 2,287 yards (8.7 yards per attempt) and 21 touchdowns against 5 interceptions as a junior. Primarily a pass-first quarterback as a junior, not running for many yards and finishing with -92 yards rushing – an anomaly for a top quarterback prospect. Will need to show more mobility and playmaking ability and up his overall play as a senior. Can let his throws hang at times. Transferred to his fourth high school prior to his senior season. The son of 14-year NFL center Dominic Raiola. Also a standout baseball player as a pitcher and catcher early in his high school career.”

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $727K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). 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.
