Top Auburn football defensive recruiting target to make ‘final decision’

Related Topics: Auburn Tigers football

During this offseason, the Auburn football program has stepped up their recruiting game dramatically. When he took the job last November, head coach Hugh Freeze saw a problem and began implementing solutions quickly.

The Tigers have found themselves square in the middle of several high profile recruiting battles as of late, including some prospects who are already committed to other schools. For a long time, Auburn football was considered the favorite with 5-star wide receiver Cam Coleman, but the prospect ended up committing to Texas A&M in a surprise announcement on July 4.

However, there are several targets that the Tigers are still after, including 5-star wide receiver Perry Thompson (committed to Alabama) and 5-star linebacker Demarcus Riddick (committed to Georgia), who may be the top targets on the board for Auburn right now.
