He earned it after his performance at today’s Elite 11 Regional in Eugene, Oregon. 



Raiola is the No. 1 overall prospect in the <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/rankings/industry-player/football/2024/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">2024 On3 Industry Ranking</a>. According to the <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/dylan-raiola-147035/recruiting/155789/rpm/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine</a>, <a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/georgia-bulldogs/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Georgia</a> is leading for his commitment at 59.8%. 



The 6-foot-3, 230-pound signal-caller is one of five players to <a href="https://www.on3.com/news/2023-elite-11-finals-complete-quarterback-roster/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">clinch spots</a> in the Elite 11’s showcase event in California. Carlsbad (Calif.) five-star <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/julian-sayin-68682/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Julian Sayin</a> (<a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/alabama-crimson-tide/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alabama</a> commit), Saline (Mich.) four-star quarterback <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/cj-carr-23576/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CJ Carr</a> (<a href="https://www.on3.com/college/notre-dame-fighting-irish/">Notre Dame</a> commit), Savannah (Ga.)

West Orange three-star <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/trever-jackson-156279/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Trever Jackson</a> are the others. 



One of the highest honors for a high school quarterback is being invited to the <a href="https://www.elite11.com/2022-elite-11-finals-roster" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Elite 11 Finals</a>. The event, which will celebrate its 24rd year in 2023, brings together the country’s elite signal-callers for three days of competition and training in Los Angeles.



Elite 11 alumni include <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/carson-palmer-18796/">Carson Palmer</a>, <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/andrew-luck-5168/">Andrew Luck</a>, <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/matthew-stafford-86239/">Matthew Stafford</a>, <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/tim-tebow-112850/">Tim Tebow</a>, and more recently <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/trevor-lawrence-115766/">Trevor Lawrence</a>, <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/cj-stroud-23666/">C.J.

<h2 id="h-raiola-is-currently-the-top-uncommitted-player-in-the-country">Raiola is currently the top uncommitted player in the country</h2>



Raiola has visited multiple schools this spring, including <a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/usc-trojans/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">USC</a> (March 4), Georgia (March 18) and <a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/nebraska-cornhuskers/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Nebraska</a> (March 25). He is currently scheduled to take an official visit to the Bulldogs on June 2. 



At the moment, Raiola is not rushing his commitment. He was previously pledged to <a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/ohio-state-buckeyes/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ohio State</a>. 



“When I’m ready, that opportunity will present itself,” <a href="https://www.on3.com/news/dylan-raiola-previews-crucial-spring-visits-five-star-plus-qb/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Raiola told On3’s Chad Simmons</a> on March 17. “I’m really trusting God, trusting my family and really just going with the school that best fits me and makes me the best man and player I can be.” 



Raiola also spoke with Simmons about his interest in Georgia, Nebraska and USC. 



Georgia: “I think you start top down with coach <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/kirby-smart-134971/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">(Kirby) Smart</a> and his leadership and what he’s done for that program. Coming from <a href="https://www.on3.com/teams/alabama-crimson-tide/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Alabama</a>, he knows how to win. He knows how to develop young men and get all of his coaches around him as great people, which reflects on his leadership. The coaches are super genuine and the relationships are very real.”



Nebraska: “Coach <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/matt-rhule-131152/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">(Matt) Rhule</a> is always texting me that, ‘It only takes one.’ If you win at a place like Nebraska, you get your statue built out there. Really envisioning myself trying to change a program is pretty special, having them think of me like that, to be a culture-changer. It’s a consistent message every time I talk to them.” 



USC: “I really like what they do out there with their quarterbacks. I’ve been able to create a pretty close relationship with <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/caleb-williams-17251/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Caleb Williams</a> and learn how he’s gone through coach Riley’s system, all the dudes they have there to throw to. Obviously, being L.A., the education is second-to-none. Just everything about L.A. from the networking and all that, there’s just a lot to love about L.A. and USC.”
