Long Beach (Calif.) Millikan four-star wide receiver Ryan Pellum has narrowed his list of top schools down to two yesterday, a battle between USC and Oregon.

The 5-foot-11, 169-pound pass-catcher is the No. 92 overall prospect and No. 16 wide receiver in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 10 player in California.

Now, just one day after announcing the final two in his recruitment, USC has seen a drastic rise in the On3 Recruiting Prediction.

According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM), the Trojans holds a 96.0% chance to land his commitment.

Oregon Insider Justin Hopkins was the first today to log a prediction in favor of the Trojans. He logged his prediction at 75% confidence.

Immediately following, both Scott Schrader and I logged predictions for USC to land Pellum.

It is also expected that Pellum is not far from a decision.

On3 NIL Valuation of Pellum

Ryan Pellum currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $112K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). 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.
