Four-star Michigan QB commit Jadyn Davis has standout outing on first day of Elite 11 Finals
Charlotte (N.C.) Providence Day our-star quarterback and Michigan commit Jadyn Davis received high remarks for his performance Wednesday on the first day of the Elite 11 Finals in Los Angeles, California.
The 25th annual running of the national high school quarterback showcase pits Davis against 19 of the country’s elite gun slingers in the 2024 class. Davis received an invitation to the event after going toe-to-toe with Ohio State quarterback commit Air Norland at the Elite 11 Regional in Atlanta, Georgia, last month.
Davis is one-of-eight junior signal callers currently competing in Southern California who are ranked in the Top 100, per the On3 Industry Ranking, a weight average that utilizes all four major recruiting media services. Over the course of three days, all 20 attendees receive hands-on instruction from acclaimed quarterback trainers, as well as former college and NFL quarterbacks.
On3 is onsite for the Elite 11 Finals where Davis looked comfortable with his mechanics Wednesday, according to national recruiting analyst Sam Spiegelman.
“Jadyn Davis has also been really accurate throwing on the move and throwing with great acceleration and the ball comes out of his hands really well,” Spiegelman said.
On3 director of scouting and rankings Charles Power wrote that Davis’ progression was visible Wednesday as the session advanced.
“Michigan commit Jadyn Davis showed some improvement over the course of the workout, looking more comfortable as he settled in,” Power said. “Davis spun the ball well and had some nice passes over the course of the evening. He looks to have the longest release on hand with an pronounced backstroke within his throwing motion.”

High linebacker Jeremiah Beasley.
“It’s a great deal of pride an honor and I’m extremely grateful for the whole Michigan fan base,” Davis told On3 national recruiting analyst Jeremy Johnson on Wednesday. “They’ve shown me nothing but love. If anybody says anything at me, they attack them. They’ve shown me love. I’m representing them and the whole Michigan program and that brand when I’m out there. I do that each and every day…I’m trying to show Michigan in the most positive light possible and be victorious as well.”
Davis is listed as the No. 33 overall prospect and No. 4 quarterback in the country, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, He’s also the No. 1 ranked junior in the state of North Carolina.
Davis has an On3 NIL Valuation of $587K with 49,000 combined followers on Instagram, TikTok and Twitter. 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.
