Jakob Gude, 3-star safety, lists Oregon among top five
One of the top uncommitted safeties in the class of 2024 has listed Oregon among his top five schools.
On Thursday Jakob Gude, a 3-star safety out of Fairburn (Ga.) announced that he plans to commit on July 6. He listed Oregon among his top five schools along with Ohio State, Alabama, Florida, and UCF.
A 5-foot-11, 177-pound standout at Langston Hughes, Gude is the No. 36 safety and No. 414 overall prospect in the ’24 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking. He has received offers from a plethora of powerhouse programs, including Ohio State and Alabama — both of which are above the schools he has visited.
Oregon has already landed a commitment from 4-star ’24 safety Aaron Flowers, the No. 7 safety in the nation.

The On3 Industry Ranking weights the primary recruiting media services based on past performance data, and overall scouting and recruiting coverage investment.
For football, the algorithm is weighted as follows: On3 (35%), 247Sports (35%), Rivals.com (20%) and ESPN (10%).
For basketball, the algorithm equally weights On3, 247Sports, Rivals.com and ESPN at 25%.
The On3 Industry Rating and Ranking increases the total number of 5-stars and 4-stars seven times throughout the recruiting cycle, concluding with 32 5-stars for football and 20 for basketball. This solves for the problem of awarding 5-star ratings too early in the recruiting process to meet predefined quotas. With each passing month in the cycle, scouts in the industry have more data, information and scouting opportunities to evaluate better and project prospects. This process is referenced by the Industry “Strength” meter in the database. Listed below is the football star ranking update schedule:
