247Sports made a list of their 23 true freshmen to watch during the 2023 college football season.

Keldric Faulk was on this list which should excite Auburn fans.

The author of this article Brad Crawford had this to say about Faulk, "Auburn needs all the help it can get up front defensively with four key contributors exiting a unit that only had so-so results in 2022. Faulk is the type of early enrollee capable of providing a boost from the jump. He's a verified 6-foot-5, 269 pounds with plenty of room to add bulk. He's also capable of playing multiple spots, working at defensive end in a 3-4 or as a standup JACK linebacker. Perhaps most importantly, he brings pass rushing juice with him to The Plains. Expect Faulk to be a big part of Auburn's pass rush rotation this season."

On the 247Sports recruiting page for Faulk, they have him listed at six-foot-five, 270-pounds, but Auburn's official 2023 roster has him listed at six-foot-six, 288-pounds.

This means that he has grown an inch and bulked up so far during his time on the Plains.

I am fully sold on Faulk having a monster year for the Tigers and will come into the 2024 season as one of the best pass rushers in college football.
