Eddie Williams - Whether it was Parrish of Melton at the helm for Central, the long 2020 wide receiver was their top outside target. He gains ground in a hurry and can high-point the ball on the ideal frame, so it created a lot of space for him to work underneath as the day went on. Williams has room to fill out the 6-foot-3 frame and add strength, but his ability to catch the ball away from his body and route-running consistency has hit another level, part of the reason the semi-local Auburn Tigers jumped in with his most recent SEC offer. Those close to him, including elite class of 2018 Central wide receiver and current Clemson freshman Justyn Ross, think he has the tools to be one of the premiere wide receiver prospects in the 2020 group.
AU offered last Friday at camp

Kamaar Bell - There was a trench talent portion of the day Thursday and although it was shorter, nobody was as consistent as Bell. The big Moultrie (Ga.) Colquitt County offensive lineman worked exclusively at center and didn't clearly lose a rep while 247Sports was focused on that portion of the day. He is a wide body who few try to attack internally, so he was prepared for and combated those trying to use speed, quickness and sophisticated pass rush moves to defeat him. Bell anticipated spins, fakes and lateral cuts and handled each with power and a solid punch. The senior will play in the SEC at the next level with Alabama, Auburn and Florida dominating the current conversation surrounding his name.
Bell wants to go to Bama but they might not have room. If AU misses on Putnam & Bama doesn't have room, Bell probably becomes a top target

Ja'Varrius Johnson - The most recent Auburn commitment and Trussville (Ala.) Hewitt-Trussville wide receiver got to put on at his future home and was the most consistently dominant pass catcher Thursday. Through some nine games he played in, he was able to beat defensive backs in just about every way. Johnson could simply run by most with his 4.4 speed, set up others with double moves as he continues to develop as a route-runner, and also make a slew of contested catches despite his 5-foot-9, 170 pounds or so frame. He is simply a big play waiting to happen and will be a name who continues to turn heads on Friday nights and probably in the recruiting rankings, too.

quote:
Javion Cohen - Another Central Red Devil standout, this one comes in the trenches. There was special attention for the 6-foot-5, 275-pound offensive tackle recruit in the 2020 class. He has long arms and stays light on his feet against speed rushers and shows more power than he looks like he could against the bigger bodies he faces. Cohen is still somewhat raw in his technique and will need to add mass moving forward, but it's safe to say his current list of offers -- Troy and Alabama A&M -- won't sit at two much longer.

quote:
Omari Porter - The defensive back with the most attention on the day was probably the Auburn (Ala.) High School prospect. The son of Auburn assistant coach Larry Porter, the junior talent washed away all talk of his name being the sole reason he's received a boost in his recruitment this offseason. He is a big secondary standout at 6-foot-1, 175 pounds with room to grow, and he plays a fluid game at that coveted size. The debate on cornerback, where he worked all day Thursday, and safety may well ware on, but not the debate about his potential as a Power 5 prospect. Porter can push his pedal, maintain leverage and play the football at its highest point. Straight-line speed questions could become a part of the dialogue but it wasn't an issue against top competition Thursday.

quote:
Kristian Story - Another 2020 standout, the versatile Lanett (Ala.) star plays all over the field for the defending state champions. On Thursday we saw him at quarterback, his bread and butter position, as well as wide receiver, cornerback and safety with his athleticism. Story flashed at all of them, part of the reason he is considered an athlete by 247Sports, but the conversation could begin shifting back to the quarterback position as he progresses. The storng-armed Tennessee commitment was accurate and pushed the ball down the field and beyond the numbers all day long despite yet to really focus on the position in any offseason, something he's going to do for the first time in 2018 complete with a trip to the Manning Passing Academy later this month. His coach and father, Clifford Story, said Tennessee and other SEC programs are considering projecting him solely as a passer now more than ever. Alabama gets him on campus next.

quote:
Cortlin Martin - The trench battles were largely won by the offensive line Thursday, but the Prichard (Ala.) Blount front-seven defender more than held his own among all linemen putting in work. He has been an inside linebacker and stand-up pass rusher since starting as a high school freshman, but worked as a hand-in-the-dirt defensive tackle and defensive end Thursday with great success. Martin is compact at 6-foot-1 with great hands, power and technique at 265 pounds or so. When he won reps, it happened in a hurry. Guards were too slow for him and tackles weren't powerful enough for this unique defensive prospect. Martin's projected position could range all over the place, but he's simply a productive football player with a strong motor and physical ability moving forward.

JLee says 3* DL Jamond Gordon is back on campus

KN says 3* CB Nehemiah Pritchett ran a couple of 4.4s today. Getting some attention from AU coaching staff
247's John Garcia said that Pritchett outplayed Cordale Flott by a little bit in their spring game
With Booth, Puckett & Sheffield all on radar hard to see him getting offer unless they lose Flott

When I visited Auburn last year I ran a 4.38 from my car to the book store.
When I got back home I ran a time of 5.89 and knew right away I needed to calibrate the measuring device at home.

Are you trying to say that AU does not put out authentic 40 times?

Kodi Burns is quickly (considering last year's class and this one possibly) putting himself up with the best recruiters in the Southeast.

I didn't see this mentioned in the last couple if pages but Hoover is hosting a double header to kick off the season that will be televised on ESPN and should be very interesting for our recruiting.
First game will be Hoover vs Pinson Valley (George Pickens vs Bo Nix)
Second game will be Hewitt-Trussvile and Cedar Grove (Ga.) where Jordan Haslewood plays

Ja'Varrius Johnson plays for Hewitt too so both games will feature AU commits

Our most recent WR commit is on HT as well (so is Paul Tyson).

new 247 article up on Andrew Booth!
interview by Kipp Adams....nothing but positives for Auburn. It sounds like he has given the staff every indication that we lead for him, clearly. Probably just wants to visit us and Clemson both one more time before shutting it down. They indicated he is probably returning for the big barbecue weekend thing in July Auburn is doing. That may be the time we get him!

Think there's a chance Jamond Gordon might commit today. KN says likes where AU sits with Gordon & mentions he's had his CB on AU since May. Then says that Gordon is going to meet with the coaches right now

Also another FSU guy (Newberg) flipped CB on Curry to AU
