Auburn football’s star-studded visitors list for the season opener against Alabama A&M just got brighter.
[autotag]Na’eem Offord[/autotag], an Ohio State pledge and Alabama’s top recruit from the 2025 cycle, is scheduled to visit the Plains this weekend. Joining him are four-star quarterback [autotag]Deuce Knight[/autotag] (Notre Dame commit), four-star linebacker [autotag]Elijah Melendez[/autotag] (Miami commit), and four-star running back [autotag]Ousmane Kromah[/autotag].
Saturday will be Offord’s first visit to Auburn since Big Cat Weekend last month. Offord says that he enjoyed the weekend visit and that Auburn coaches are working to keep him in the state.
“I’m currently committed to Ohio State, but still enjoying the process,” Offord said following his visit to Auburn for Big Cat Weekend. “With Auburn, I’m an in-state guy, so they want to recruit me as hard as they can.”
Offord is the No. 1 recruit from Alabama for the 2025 cycle according to 247Sports. Getting Offord on campus is important for Auburn as they look to complete the top-10 sweep of Alabama’s top recruits. Currently, eight of Alabama’s top 10 recruits are committed to Auburn with Offord and four-star EDGE [autotag]Zion Grady[/autotag], a fellow Ohio State pledge, not following suit.
Could Auburn wrap up the weekend by gaining an advantage with both Knight and Offord?
