January 31st, 2011 09:28 PM║ Posted By: Josh Ward ║ Permalink
Marcus Roberson’s decision to switch his commitment from Texas Tech to Auburn should come as no surprise.
In fact, we wrote the night that he committed to Texas Tech that his recruiting was still very much up in the air.
Roberson’s commitment to Auburn is another significant piece to the Tigers’ class of 2011. Roberson, who attends St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., is ranked the No. 2 cornerback and No. 37 overall prospect in the nation by Rivals.com.
Auburn has 23 commitments for 2011. The Tigers have received four commitments in the last week and nine commitments in the month of January. Auburn’s class is now ranked sixth nationally in the Rivals team rankings.
Auburn doesn’t appear to be done with its class. The Tigers are still recruiting several highly-touted prospects, including offensive linemen Cyrus Kouandjio and Antonio Richardson, defensive tackle Gabe Wright and defensive backs Erique Florence and Jermaine Whitehead.
Here’s a recent Q&A with Justin Hokanson of AuburnSports.com looking ahead to National Signing Day.
