Sacramento (Calif.) Grant Union three-star interior offensive lineman Alani Noa will announce his commitment Tuesday at 2 p.m. ET on CBS Sports HQ.

Noa is choosing between Oregon and USC.

He is the No. 892 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.

The On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine have thew Trojans as the heavy favorites over the Ducks, giving USC a 98.5% chance of landing the three-star prospect.

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.
