The 6-foot-1, 195-pound defensive back holds 18 offers. He has already visited multiple programs, including Alabama, Ohio State and Penn State.

According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, the Nittany Lions are leading for his commitment at 42.3%.

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.

Wisconsin has no commitments in its 2025 recruiting class. Meanwhile, the Badgers’ 2023 class contains 14 pledges and ranks No. 49 in the 2023 On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings, as well as No. 11 in the Big Ten.

Delane has an On3 NIL Valuation of $77K. 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.
