Beaumont (Texas) United four-star offensive tackle Weston Davis announced his top six schools on Sunday night. They are Texas A&MAlabamaOklahoma StateLSUOklahoma and TCU.

Davis is the No. 114 overall prospect and No. 7 offensive tackle 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. 21 player in Texas.

On3 rates Davis higher than other recruiting services. According to the Industry Comparison. Per the 2024 On300, he is the No. 54 overall prospect, No. 6 offensive tackle and No. 12 player in Texas.

Davis is one of the top OT’s on the market

The 6-foot-4, 260-pound junior holds 13 total offers. According to the  On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, the Alabama Crimson Tide have a commanding lead for his commitment at 66.8%. Behind the Tide are the LSU Tigers at 20.8%, Houston at 1.6%, and Texas A&M at 1.3%.

RPM was released to the public in December 2021. 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.

Davis landed his offer from Texas A&M in early February and to date he has not visited College Station, but I would imagine that changes soon. I would expect that Davis visits each of his top six schools and his official visits are picked from the same list.

With Alabama already scheduled for one of them, he has four more official visits remaining to be scheduled. Texas A&M will work to be one of them.

Davis has an On3 NIL Valuation of $93K. 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.

To date, Texas A&M holds four commitments in the class of 2024, two of them coming from Texas. The four commitments are four-star Hattiesburg (Miss.) Oak Grove quarterback Anthony Maddox, four-star Longview (Texas) Pine Tree defensive lineman Dealyn Evans, four-star Katy (Texas) Tompkins offensive lineman Ashton Funk, and four-star Alpharetta (Ga.) Milton wide receiver Debron Gatling.
