On300 4-star DL Jide Abasiri decommits from Minnesota

Savage (Minn.) Prior Lake four-star defensive lineman Jide Abasiri decommitted from Minnesota.

Abasiri had been committed to the Golden Gophers since March 2023, when he chose them over Missouri, Kansas, Iowa State, Washington, Kansas State, and Central Michigan.

“After a long talk and consideration with my family I have decided to decommit from the University of Minnesota,” Abasiri wrote on social media. “Thank you to all the coaches at Minnesota for helping and believing in me.”

Abasiri is the No. 516 overall prospect and No. 49 defensive lineman 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. 4 player in Minnesota.

On3, however, ranks him significantly higher than the rest of the recruiting industry. In the latest On300 rankings, he was tabbed as the nation’s No. 283 overall recruit, No. 29 defensive lineman and No. 3 prospect in Minnesota.

USC is currently trending to land Abasiri in the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine with a 98.3% chance of receiving his commitment. USC insider Marshall Levenson initially logged an expert prediction with a 65% confidence level for the Trojans to flip Abasiri away from the Gophers.
