On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine: New leader for 4-star RB Jordan Marshall

Cincinnati (Ohio) Archbishop Moeller four-star running back Jordan Marshall announced a top four of Michigan, Ohio State, Tennessee and Wisconsin on Feb. 2. According to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, the Wolverines are now trending for his commitment.

Michigan’s chance to land Marshall’s commitment is currently at 37.8%. He last visited Ann Arbor on Jan. 14 and is set to return for an official visit on the weekend of June 10.

“It just reminds me of the school I’m at now, Moeller,” Marshall told On3’s Chad Simmons about the Wolverines. “Faith is a big part of that football program and faith is a big part of my life, so that’s really big to me. Coach (Mike) Hart, that’s my guy. We just understand each other, we get each other. It’s a different type of bond. And then, the school just speaks for itself. It has amazing academics.”

Marshall is the No. 81 overall prospect and No. 5 running back in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 3 player in Ohio.

On3 rates Marshall higher than other recruiting services, according to the Industry Comparison. Per the 2024 On300, he is the No. 79 overall prospect in the country and the No. 2 player in Ohio.

Michigan has recently flourished in the run game with Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards in the backfield. Their success has caught the attention of Marshall.

“It’s cool, especially when Michigan could be considered the new RBU,” Marshall told Zach Libby of The Wolverine on Feb. 2. “They’re producing a lot of great backs. Blake is a really high-profile type of guy. Just watching him and how he processes things, I can tell that how he moves, cuts off defenders, and pushes them off. Since watching him, I’ve learned to stay patient.

“Blake is really patient back there and doesn’t go right away. That’s something I’ve tried to perfect a lot. It’s a skill that I want to get better at. Being patient on outside schemes and zone schemes. That’s something that I’ve seen do really well and something that I can work on.”

Marshall has an On3 NIL Valuation of $112K. 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.
