3-star cornerback Smith Snowden names top 8 schools
Lehi (Utah) Skyridge three-star cornerback Smith Snowden has named his top eight schools, listing BYU, Colorado, Northwestern, Oregon State, Stanford, Utah, Utah State and Washington State.
Snowden is the No. 730 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.
Among prospects from the state of Utah, he is the seventh-ranked recruit in the state.
He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $6k. 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.
Northwestern is the current favorite for his signature, according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine. RPM gives the Wildcats a 69.0% chance of landing Snowden.
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, expert predictions, social sentiment, visits, and historical trends. However, expert predictions are still a big piece of the RPM equation.
