Auburn’s new RB commit J'Marion ‘‘Phat’’ Burnette turns recruiter
It will be a little while before Auburn fans get to hear “White connects with Burnette for another touchdown.” However, Auburn is already getting to see their teamwork in action as Burnette joins in the constant Twitter recruitment that Walker White started.
Earlier today “Phat” Burnette tweeted at current Georgia commit Demarcus Riddick:
Riddick, from Clanton, Alabama, is widely considered among the top linebackers available in this class. Despite his early commitment to Georgia, he has taken several visits to the Plains of Auburn and appears to enjoy the personal touch that Auburn coaches genuinely have for their players. With the Tigers' recruiting staff putting together such a personal approach you have to wonder if the addition of Walker White and “Phat” Burnette’s Tweets can flip the young man into the Auburn family.
Burnette also reached out to another Alabamian Landen "Meat" Marshall.
A current three-star defensive line prospect out of Andalusia High School, Landen Marshall has received an offer from Arkansas but still lists Auburn as a school he is highly interested in. Marshall has a 6-foot 3-inch frame that is already at 285 pounds before entering a collegiate strength program. That with the addition of being in Auburn’s own backyard of recruiting makes him an interesting prospect at a position Auburn is known to cultivate NFL talent from.
As if that wasn’t enough, the talented young running back decided it wouldn't be a bad idea to reach out for a little blocking help:
Jonathan Daniels, a three-star offensive tackle out of Pine Forest High School in Pensacola, Florida, would be a nice tackle to run behind as he is currently in at a beastly 6-foot 5-inch 282 pounds. Daniels is an amazing athlete with stunning speed for his size. With a skillset that is through the roof, Auburn would love to see if they can turn his head away from Florida State and get him to chase SEC championships.
Auburn fans have to be excited with the improvement of the program with these two rising stars joining the efforts of a coaching staff that has turned into a recruiting juggernaut to get the Tigers back to championship football.
