Auburn adds two more commitments

Auburn added a pair of commitments on Sunday, bumping their total to 25 players.

I'd say they're closing in on a full class.

The first commitment was OL Steven Jacques of Hollywood, Fla. He was being pursued most diligently by South Carolina, South Florida and West Virginia. At 6-foot-3, Jacques looks like a future college guard.

The second commitment was DE Montez Robertson of Avon, Indiana. He received scholarship offers from several schools, but was most enamored with Auburn, Alabama and Georgia. At 6-foot-5 and 235 pounds, Robertson profiles as a strong-side end in college.

Thanks, as always, to our friends Bryan and Jeffrey at AuburnSports.com for their generous assistance.

That would be a total of 3 OL commitments in the last 2 years? None of which seem like a prototypical OT?

Unreal. Guess they are counting on another gold mine of true freshman coming in next year like LZ, CR and RP. Don't hold your breath on that one.

Did anyone ever hear if Kendall Kelly (Gadsen City WR) made the trip?

Jay, Journet is no longer in the mix. His offer was pulled b/c he didn't enroll in juco this fall.

Anon, I'm pretty sure they know what they're doing with the OL recruiting.

I just made those corrections plus I added Tyler Knight, who committed two weeks ago. I forgot to add him to The Big Board at the time.

Thanks for the keen eyes!

Again I thank all who were at that game. The atmosphere makes all the difference to these guys. That is why it is so critical not to boo when we screw up. All players want their efforts praised even when that effort does not produce the desired result.
