Atlanta Westlake four-star interior offensive lineman Juan Gaston is one of the most coveted trench monsters in the 2025 cycle. After racking up a heap of offers, the 6-foot-7.5, 330-pounder has trimmed his list.
On Sunday evening, Gaston named his top eight schools: Florida State, Georgia, UCF, Tennessee, South Carolina, USC, Oregon and Texas.
Gaston is the No. 104 overall prospect and No. 3 IOL in the 2025 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 15 player in Georgia.

On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine on Gaston
The 6-foot-7.5, 330-pounder holds 28 offers. According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM), the Georgia Bulldogs have the best chance to land Gaston at 55%, while Tennessee is in second at 12.9%. UGA has had the coveted lineman on campus four times, including a recent trip at the beginning of June.
RPM was released to the public in December 2021. 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.
