Auburn looks to have an amazing visitors list for A-Day

The list includes three five stars and multiple players on commit watch.

Jack SingleyApr 4, 2023 1:25 PM EDT

The recruiting never stops, this is no more evident than this upcoming Saturday in what is usually a highlight of team building and the first televised look of the team, A-Day has become a gigantic day for recruiting. 

The amount of recruits is uncertain as of April 4th, but it looks to be around 20-30 recruits all in the 2024 and 2025 classes.

The stars of the show will be the three five stars. Jordan Ross (JACK), Perry Thompson (WR), and Demarcus Riddick(LB/JACK). The important thing to notice is that two of these players are committed to Auburns biggest rivals. Riddick has been committed to Georgia for over six months and Thompson has been with Alabama since mid-June last year. This shows that kids are buying into the Freeze administration and giving Auburn a chance despite the failures and poor performance of the last staff.

The visitor list also proves that this staff is analyzing the current roster and addressing needs. There will be at least four players each at the linebacker position, Jack position, and the defensive line position. All three are huge needs for the Tigers defense. The biggest names for these are JACK Joseph Phillips, LB Sterling Dixon, LB Bradley Shaw, and 2025 JACK Zayden Walker. Walker is the younger brother of DLZykevious Walker.

The list also hints that Auburn might want to add another running back to the class, as the already committed J'Marion Burnette there along with three 2024 backs in attendance.Kevin Riley, a four-star from Tuscaloosa County, Elijah Hall, from Tuskegee, and Daniel Hill a four-star from Meridian, MS. 

Rounding out this weekend, Auburn will host a group of defensive backs and a singular offensive lineman. Frequent visitors Jalewis Solomon and Jayln Crawford will join committed DBs A'Mon Lane and Jayden Lewis. Solomon is related to previously mentioned Zayden Walker and Zykevious Walker. Crawford has liked Auburn for a while and has visited multiple times. The lone lineman will be Isaiah Autry, an offensive tackle who has blown up over the winter and has received tons of offers. Autry is 6'6 and 280 pounds, the frame is there and OL coach Jake Thornton sees potential. 

The Freeze staff recognizes the needs and since day one has been addressing them. The fact that a spring game has garnered this much attention from recruits when last years spring game had a lackluster feel both on and off field. A-Day will be held on Saturday April 8th, and kickoff will be 1 p.m. CT on SEC Network.

Henderson is the 2025 RB that caddy really wants. Recently broke Caddy’s high school records.

Another thing to watch is transfers after the next few weeks. We’ll see more guys leaving and entering after these spring games.

It's going to be really telling if Auburn can make some actual traction with all the Alabama and Georgia commits they're bringing in for A-Day. This is quite frankly a really solid list. 

Names in bold are new additions since the initial posting.

4* 2024 RB Daniel Hill won’t make it to A-Day. He says he plans on visiting later but when they’re a Bama lean and they back out of visits I’ve come to expect the worst.

Sounds like the coaching one snuffed this one out and got ahead of it.

I loved the long list of players coming but it was light on O-Line. The new additions added three it has gone from great too fantastic.

Good news is Phat is our #1 guy and we already have him onboard. Any other RB in the 24 class is just a bonus.

I think someone with slurred speech from being very drunk could not pronounce Tuscaloosa, and invented the name Tuscarora.🤐

@Zeek it looks like you missed the thread where Keith posted that it was at Auburn’s request so they could spend more time with him one on one so he likely will come back in May.

Not to take anything away from HF, but finally having A Day on a weekend unopposed is a recipe for success. These kids have nothing else to do and Hugh delivered
