The search for Auburn Football’s newest head coach has not deterred recruits from committing to the Tigers.
Auburn football received the commitment on Monday from [autotag]Brenton Williams[/autotag], a three-star defensive lineman from nearby Opelika High School. Williams’ commitment is the second that Auburn has received in three days. Last Friday, another local product pledged to the Tigers. [autotag]Darron Reed[/autotag], a four-star defensive lineman from Carver High School in Columbus, announced that he would be de-committing from LSU in favor of committing to Auburn.
In a recent interview with Auburn Live’s Keith Niebuhr, Williams shared his personal choice for Auburn’s next head coach, and it is someone that was instrumental in his recruitment.
“If I had to pick a new coach today, it would be Cadillac (Williams),” Williams said. He’s a great dude. If they get a new coach I’ll meet him, see how he’s going to run everything, and see if I fit into his scheme.”
Williams is the No. 47 prospect from the state of Alabama, and No. 104 nationally. Auburn’s 2023 class ranking received a boost with Williams’ commitment. The Tigers now rank No. 32 in 247Sports’ rankings, an increase from No. 39 prior to his commitment.
