The 6-foot-0.5, 190 pound prospect has a family connection to Oklahoma State. His brother, Korie Black, plays cornerback for the Cowboys.

RPM was released to the public in December. 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.
Black has an On3 NIL Valuation of $104K. 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.
Kobe Black On3 Scouting Summary
The following is the On3 Scouting Summary for Kobe Black:
“Two-way star at cornerback and wide receiver who shows off his natural ball skills on both sides of the ball. Tremendous size and length. Measures in at 6-foot, 190 pounds with a 6-foot-5 wingspan. Jumped an 18-inch vertical and ran an electronically-timed 4.25 shuttle and a freakish 6.98 3-cone drill during the spring camp circuit prior to his junior season. Terrific high point ability and strong hands at the catch point. Solid long speed and hip fluidity. Prototype boundary corner at the next level and projects to be a top-tier NFL draft selection. Brother is current Oklahoma State cornerback, Korie Black.”
