2023 athlete Kade Eldridge drops top 5 schools

Lynden (Wash.) Lynden Christian School athlete Kade Eldridge has named Michigan, Oregon, USC, Washington and Washington State as his top five schools.

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $5.6k. 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.

Eldridge is currently unranked in the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. The Industry Comparison Tool does show he is ranked as a three-star recruit by 247 Sports and Rivals.

The On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine shows the Trojans have the advantage at this moment with a 67.5% chance of landing Eldridge.

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