Destrehan (La.) four-star EDGE Kolaj Cobbins announced his top six schools on Wednesday. They are Texas, Michigan, Oregon, Colorado, LSU and Ole Miss.

Cobbins is the No. 219 overall prospect and No. 17 EDGE 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. 5 player in Louisiana.

The 6-foot-2.5, 200-pound pass rusher cut down his list after originally announcing a top 10 on Christmas. According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, LSU has a close lead for his commitment at 32.4%.

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.

Cobbins has an On3 NIL Valuation of $6.1K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). 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.
