It is early in the process, but [autotag]Jayden Johnson[/autotag] has emerged as one of the best prospects in the 2026 recruiting class. The Auburn Tigers are one of several schools talking to the talented shooting guard and will get to host him on an important visit next month.
The 6-foot-5, 175-pounder will take an unofficial visit to the Plains on Feb. 17. The trip will be his first ever to Auburn and will give him a chance to watch [autotag]Bruce Pearl[/autotag] and Co. take on the Kentucky Wildcats inside Neville Arena.
Johnsons in the No. 36 overall player and No. 10 shooting guard in the 247Sports composite ranking. The Louisville, Kentucky product is also the No. 1 player from the Bluegrass State in the 2026 cycle.
