On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine: Miami now on top for Jaden Rashada

A new leader has emerged in the recruitment of four-star Pittsburg (Calif.) quarterback Jaden Rashada, according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine (RPM).

Following an expert prediction from On3 National Recruiting Analyst Sam Spiegelman, as well as updates around the industry, Miami is the new favorite to land Rashada.

The No. 42 overall prospect in the On3 Consensus is currently on an official visit to Coral Gables and is expected to make his commitment announcement on Saturday.

The RPM gives the Hurricanes a 50.1 percent chance of securing his commitment, with Florida — the other perceived finalist, trailing behind at 23.7 percent.

Jaden Rashada Scouting Summary

“Thinner-framed passer with impressive arm talent that keeps his cool when facing pressure. Has the arm strength to drive the ball downfield and into tight windows. Possesses the functional movement skills to escape the pass rush. Three-level passer who has the ability to layer the football. Productive player last season throwing for 2,220 yards and 27 touchdowns to 5 interceptions. Can be inconsistent with his ball placement, but showed flashes of improvement in camp and 7-on-7 settings this spring.

… Should develop quicker processing with more reps in the same offense after playing in three different systems. Played his freshman season at Liberty HS before transferring to IMG Academy for his sophomore season. Transferred back to California and played his junior season at Pittsburg HS. On the older end of the spectrum for quarterbacks in his class. Has the physical tools and arm talent to become the face of an elite-level power five program.” — Charles Power, On3 Director of Scouting and Rankings
