War to the Eagle 362 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Update 11/14/17 Commits to AU Quote "It's about what school fits me," Tutt told SEC Country. "The situation they're in right now with guys trying to go to the league with some guys that don't fully play corner and can fit in at safety, it's a need right now. Without any corners in this class right now, they need me to come in as a mid-year and get into the system, get in the weight room, get bigger." 11/07/17: So I see this guy's coming to visit this weekend. He's got great size, and we can never have enough good cornerbacks. He's currently CB'd primarily to Nebraska of all places. He's from Georgia, though, and if distance plays any factor in his decision, we should be an appealing option.

He is very physical and strong. Tutt shows great anticipation and quick hips. He also aggressive and has great playmaking skills. Tutt needs to continue to refine his technique, but he is physically ready to play at the collegiate level and will make an early impact. https://247sports.com/Player/Christian-Tutt-75390 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeslider 6 269 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 We definitely need more high quality CBs, with 1 or 2 safeties in place already, we could use some CBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WFE12 9,191 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 After his official visit, 4-star CB Christian Tutt to make Tuesday decision between Auburn, Ohio State By Benjamin Wolk Auburn Recruiting Reporter November 12, 2017 AUBURN, Ala. — Christian Tutt is ready to make his college decision. After his official visit to Auburn, the 4-star cornerback from Thomson, Ga., confirmed what he already believed coming into the weekend — that he wanted to commit Tuesday at his U.S. Army All-American Game jersey ceremony. It’s officially down to Ohio State and Auburn. Tutt admitted Nebraska’s coaching uncertainty and program instability steered him away from the Cornhuskers. “This weekend was great. I’m wrapping up my recruitment. I’ll be committing Tuesday. It’s going to be at Ohio State or here,” Tutt said. “This weekend meant a lot to me. It meant a lot to me and my family.” Tutt’s official visit to Auburn gave him a first-hand look at the Tigers against the No. 1 team in the country. He officially visited Ohio State on Sept. 17. Based on timing, it might seem like the Tigers are a lock to land Tutt. But he already knew coming into the weekend he wanted to commit on Tuesday. He thought it was possible he’d have to push back that decision, but after this weekend, Tutt is sure he’s ready to commit on Tuesday to either the Tigers or the Buckeyes. This weekend certainly made an impression. “It did [change things for me],” Tutt said. “This weekend meant a lot. They showed me everything I needed to see. I seen a lot. I seen the way they played. I seen the way they finished. Everything. Down to preparation and schemes and how they run the defense. Coach [Kevin] Steele, he does a great job. That’s why I want to be a part of it.” Auburn has a need at cornerback. Carlton Davis is likely to leave for the NFL after this season, and so far, the Tigers don’t have any cornerbacks committed in this class. That was a big part of the conversation this weekend with Steele and secondary coach Greg Brown. They made it known where Tutt would fit in, and he liked what he heard. “Their schemes, I know exactly what defense they’re running and exactly where they want me to be in the defense. I know exactly what I need to do to come in and be successful, and that’s what I’m going to do.” 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have not seen his twitter yet but I am guessing that is just him talking personally about his ability and it being 5 star. But I have no clue. He is in the 225 range on the composite and the 247 rankings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timeslider 6 269 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I'm sure worm is a fine young man and a talented H.S RB, however, he will need a lot more to compete at the level we play at on the plains. I'm not questioning his ability, just maybe what he can do (with his size) against the best defenses in the nation. But i'm sure he will do well, i know he is a favorite of the board.

JMHO Coaches in the area say he's the best football player in South Florida regardless of position. Currently 5'7" and 185. Does Sproles come to mind? Not far off from Emmitt Smith either. I think you should take a closer look. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
austudnt23 1,432 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 AU. I have felt he would end up at AU for a while now. We are more confident in him getting in and all now and have been recruiting him hard. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey 16,550 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I wonder if he's any relation to the Tutt brothers that were at AU long ago. One of them quit football but was a very good baseball player for us. I think the other stuck with football. They were from Georgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClaytonAU 4,606 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 @bigbird you’re a secondary guy, is it strictly safeties or also CB’s? Wanted to get your opinion on Tutt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted to get your opinion on Tutt. I've worked primarily with safeties for the most part, but the last couple years I've been over the entire secondary with an assistant to help with corners. I haven't had time to watch his film, but I will and get back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
