Where Auburn football recruiting sits as spring comes to close, summer approaches

[ad_1]

AUBURN — Auburn football coach Hugh Freeze met his own expectations for recruiting in the Class of 2024.

Freeze’s goal was to reel in a top-10 class nationally, and with the help of a couple of signatures from notable prospects such as five-star receiver Cam Coleman and four-star defensive lineman Amaris Williams, the Tigers achieved that.

The 54-year-old Freeze wasted no time in raising the bar after that.

“That was our goal, is in Year 1 to have a top-10 class and in Year 2 to have a top-five class,” Freeze said Dec. 20.

With the expectation of a top-five haul in mind, here’s a look at where Auburn recruiting currently sits in the Class of 2025. There’s a long way to go before Early Signing Day arrives and prospects can make their verbal commitments official, but this is a snapshot of what the Tigers have accomplished so far.

Who does Auburn football recruiting have committed in 2025?

The Tigers currently have 10 players pledged in the Class of 2025, with the latest commitment coming from four-star offensive lineman Carde Smith on Wednesday. He’s the sixth lineman to be in the class, joining fellow offensive linemen Tavaris Dice, Tai Buster and Spencer Dowland and defensive linemen Jourdin Crawford and Malik Autry.

There’s been a clear emphasis on the trenches early on. Four-star edge defender Jakaleb Faulk is more of an outside linebacker than he is a defensive end, but he still does plenty of his work near the line of scrimmage. Other commitments include four-star cornerback Devin Williams, four-star tight end Ryan Ghea and three-star tight end Hollis Davidson.
