These are the Auburn recruiting targets with the highest NIL Valuations
The On3 NIL Valuation, a proprietary algorithm, does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. Rather, it signifies an athlete’s value at a specific moment in time.
The On3 NIL Valuation is comprised of many dynamic data points that focus on three primary categories:
+ Social media following and engagement
+ Athlete data, achievements, performance, and media sentiment
+ Endorsement deals, opportunities, and Collectives
Several Auburn targets are high in the On3 NIL rankings
In this bold new NIL world, On3 has for some time now produced High School Football NIL Rankings. Today, we take a look at where Auburn’s top recruiting targets are on this top 100 list. Of note: Five-star quarterback Arch Manning, a Texas commit, is No. 1 with an NIL valuation of $3.4.
Now for the prospects being recruited by Auburn …
No. 24: James Smith, DT, Montgomery (Ala.) Carver — $237K: Smith is a 5-star recruit and the No. 6 prospect nationally in the On3 Consensus. He officially visited Auburn in June. The Tigers are battling Alabama and Georgia.

No. 37: Jahlil Hurley, CB, Florence (Ala.) — $202K: Auburn continues to recruit the 5-star player despite his commitment to Alabama.
No. 38: Qua Russaw, Edge, Montgomery (Ala.) Carver — $199K: Russaw also officially visited Auburn in June and the plan is for him and Smith to attend the same college. Auburn having a major need at the edge has made Russaw a priority target.
The Tigers will try to flip a few of these recruits
No. 64: Troy Bowles, LB, Tampa Jesuit (Fla.) — $153K: Bowles’ father is head coach of the Tampa Bay Bucs. The 4-star backer is high on Auburn’s board, but Georgia and Ohio State probably are the teams to beat at this time.
No. 72: Keldric Faulk, Edge, Highland Home (Ala.) — $149K: Faulk committed to FSU earlier this month but the Tigers aren’t expected to throw in the towel. Will he visit them again this upcoming season? That is something Auburn Live will closely track.
No. 89: Tausili Akana, Edge, Salt Lake City (Utah) Skyridge — $139K: The 4-star pass rusher visited Auburn earlier this year and could return for an official visit.
