UAB offers 2024 4-star QB Jayden Bradford
IMG Academy (Fla.) four-star quarterback Jayden Bradford received an offer from UAB Monday afternoon. He announced the news on Twitter.
Bradford is the No. 99 overall prospect and No. 9 quarterback in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 18 player in Florida.
The 6-foot-0, 185-pound Bradford holds eight Power Five offers.
The On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine currently has South Carolina as the favorite to land a commitment from Bradford at 49%.
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.
Bradford currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $72K. 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.
