The 6-foot-0, 195-pound prospect has received 15 offers. According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, Notre Dame is leading for his commitment at 32.2%. 

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.

Cincinnati currently has no commitments in its 2024 recruiting class. Meanwhile, the Bearcats’ 2023 class contains 11 commits and is No. 66 in the 2023 On3 Consensus Team Recruiting Rankings. 

Hamilton has an On3 NIL Valuation of $12.9K. 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.
