Good morning, Tiger fans. Is a great day of recruiting news upon us?
Auburn target [autotag]Flory Bidunga[/autotag] is set to announce his commitment this evening and should feel great about its chances to land him according to two recruiting sites.
The five-star center is the best at his position for the 2024 cycle. If Auburn were to earn his commitment, it would be huge. However, that would be a secondary headline. If Bidunga chooses Auburn, he would do so over blue blood programs such as Kansas, Duke, and Michigan.
Does Auburn have a legitimate chance to make this happen? According to recruiting experts from both 247Sports and On3… absolutely.
On3’s Jamie Shaw shares that he is giving Auburn the nod after gathering intel ahead of Bidunga’s announcement. As for 247Sports, four writers submitted crystal ball predictions on Friday evening that favor Auburn. What makes this note interesting, is that three of those writers cover Duke for The Devil’s Den. Duke insider Adam Rowe gives Auburn high confidence, while the other writers have medium confidence.
Bidunga is the nation’s No. 4 overall player for the 2024 cycle and is the top center for the class. He is expected to announce his commitment during the Under Armour Elite 24 game on Saturday. Tipoff of the game is set for 7 p.m. CT and will be broadcasted live on ESPNU.
