The 6-foot-2, 300-pound recruit holds 21 offers. According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine,  Georgia Tech has a close lead for his commitment at 19.1%. 

RPM was released to the public in December. The On3 engineering group teamed up with Spiny.ai to create the industry’s first algorithm and machine learning-based product to predict where athletes will attend college. 

It factors in machine learning, social sentiment, visits and historical trends. However, expert predictions are still a big piece of the RPM equation.

The Nittany Lions currently have one commitment in their 2024 recruiting class. Erie (Penn) McDowell four-star interior offensive lineman Cooper Cousins chose Penn State on Jan. 29.

Flynn Jr. has an On3 NIL Valuation of $11.1K. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. 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.
