Popular Post toddc 13,194 Posted November 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2022 Auburn flips Top247 DL Darron Reed from LSU 4 minutes ago Darron Reed was set to be an LSU Tiger. Now, he's an Auburn Tiger. The Top247 defensive lineman from Columbus (Ga.) Carver had been committed to LSU since July 4, but now is verbally committed to Auburn as the final stretch toward Signing Day arrives. Taking an official visit to Auburn back in June, at the time Reed noted Auburn was just a little too late with a commitment planned for July 4. His relationship had started earlier in the year with Nick Eason, who departed for his alma mater Clemson. Once Jimmy Brumbaugh was hired he started to work to build the relationship with Reed, but for July's commitment, there wasn't enough time. Auburn remained active, though, and brought him in for five different unofficial visits throughout the season. Auburn kept working to build the relationship and now has him on board. Reed is Auburn's highest-rated commit in the 247Sports rankings, coming in as the No. 173 player, No. 26 defensive lineman and No. 14 player from the state of Georgia. Reed is just above 4-star running back Jeremiah Cobb, who is the No. 200 player in the 247Sports rankings. On the year at Carver, Reed has 33 tackles, 10 quarterback hurries, nine tackles for loss, eight sacks and a forced fumble for a team that's 9-2 and in the middle of a playoff run. With the commitment of Reed, Auburn is up to 12 commits in the class as he joins 4-stars Cobb, Adam Hopkins, Terrance Love, Daquayvious Sorey, Ashley Williams, Wilky Denaud, Clay Wedin and Bradyn Joiner along with 3-stars Jamarrion Harkless, JC Hart and Keyone Jenkins. 4COMMENTS While Harkless projects as a nose tackle, Auburn has Reed as a versatile defensive lineman who could even shift outside to the edge. Though he's committed as an edge, Denaud also likely projects to fit in more as a defensive end or defensive tackle. Reed's commitment to Auburn comes without a full-time head coach, but he sparks a big boost ahead of the hire and what it's set to be a wild December. 8 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedaler 999 Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 It’s almost as noteworthy that we got a player from the Columbus/Phenix City area as getting a high prospect without a permanent coaching staff. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also tagged as the No. 31 defensive lineman in the country and the 18th-best player in the state of Georgia.

Other schools that offered Reed include Clemson, Miami and Ohio State, among others. He also received SEC offers from Texas A&M, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia and LSU.
