COLLEGE FOOTBALL RECRUITING: INITIAL TOP 25 CLASSES FOR 2018 (Bleacher Report)

quote:
16. Auburn Tigers

Class Size: Three players (one 4-star recruit)

Commitments to Know

4-star quarterback Joey Gatewood, Bartram Trail High School (Jacksonville, Florida)

Auburn gained an early jump on Gatewood, a 6'3", 205-pound prospect who fielded several high-profile offers as a freshman before committing to the Tigers in December 2015. Rated No. 10 nationally among quarterbacks, Gatewood possesses the dual-threat skill set coveted by Tigers head coach Gus Malzahn, as evidenced by his 2,283 rushing yards through three high school seasons, per MaxPreps.

Junior college defensive end Daquan Newkirk, Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College

This name may sound familiar to Auburn fans because Newkirk previously pledged to the program's 2016 class while in high school at The First Academy in Orlando, Florida. Academics delayed his arrival, according to Drew Champlin of AL.com, but he is expected to be among the top-rated JUCO defenders in this cycle before finally arriving on campus with three years of eligibility left.
