Where Michigan stands in updated On3 Industry national team recruiting rankings
Michigan stayed put at No. 5 overall in the 2024 On3 Industry National Team Recruiting Rankings following the verbal commitment of three-star Pittsburgh (Pa.) Central Catholic linebacker Cole Sullivan on Friday.
At 6-foot-4, 200 pounds, Sullivan is ranked as the No. 37 overall linebacker in the country as well as the No. 10 in the state of Pennsylvania, according to On3.
Sullivan has an On3 NIL Valuation of $28K with 2,700 combined followers on Instagram and Twitter. 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.
