Four Reasons Auburn Fans Should Love The Latest Recruiting Commitment
Winning big recruiting battles never goes out of style.
The Auburn Tigers are ending up on the good end of more and more of those battles of late. Auburn's 2025 class now has nine recruiting commitments including five in the 247 top 250. The latest addition to the class is Buford (Ga.) High School's Devin Williams.
With four primary points, the following information is a microcosm of why Auburn recruiting is on the rise.
1) Anytime the Tigers land a recruit with offers from the likes of Florida, Florida State, Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Ohio State, Michigan, Notre Dame, and Penn State, it's obviously a sign that the prospect is talented. For the record, Williams is now Auburn's third commitment from the state of Georgia.
2) It's better to utilize Williams on Auburn's roster as opposed to playing against him. Think about the following question for a moment. How many times did AU go after top-notch defensive backs in recent years only to see them sign with Bama or UGA and the Tigers ended up playing against them?
3) The Tigers are now sitting with three Peach State recruits on their commitment list. That's great news because the state of Georgia is #1 for producing pro talent going by the 2023 NFL Draft per capita data from the NFL's Play Footbll website.
4) Auburn has just three cornerbacks from the last two recruiting classes because Kayin Lee already left the Plains. Having one cornerback already committed is a great start to signing two or three cornerbacks in the 2025 class.
