4-star athlete Aneyas Williams earns Auburn offer
Auburn has extended an offer to Hannibal (Mo.) four-star athlete Aneyas Williams.
Williams is the No. 299 overall recruit 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 currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $17.9k. 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.
The On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine has Notre Dame as the early leader in his recruitment. However, Williams told On3’s Chad Simmons he does not have a favorite yet.
“I don’t have a favorite anywhere, at all,” Williams told On3. “That’s why this process has been so fun. I mean, I really just got an open mind. It’s all been awesome, like first impressions. But really what I’m looking for is obviously the depth of the running back room and then how they’re gonna use me. I always ask that question and then like, how long will the coaching staff be there, which obviously, they don’t know 100% of the time, but just really relationships with coaches.”
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.
