This stat about Hugh Freeze recruiting is ridiculous
The biggest item in the "pro" category when hiring Hugh Freeze to be Auburn's next head football coach was his ability and love for recruiting at a high level.
In his first month on the job, he's doing things at Auburn that have not been done in quite some time. According to a tweet by Auburn Barstool, "Freeze has now had the same number of offensive tackles sign with him the past three weeks (four total) than auburn has had in total since 2017. Absurd."
Freeze has added Tyler Johnson from the high school ranks, Izavion Miller from the junior college level, and Dillon Wade and Gunner Britton from the transfer portal.
He and his coaching staff's late push to get the 2023 class inside the top 20 was remarkable but the fact that he is adding players at positions of need does not need to be overlooked.
Yesterday at Auburn Daily, we put out a way too early depth chart projection after Britton committed to Freeze and the Tigers. Four of the five projected starters are newcomers to the roster.
