Auburn football is attempting to make massive moves on the recruiting trail in the summer, with many prospective players making official visits to the Plains.
One of those recruits is offensive tackle [autotag]Broderick Shull[/autotag], who made his visit to the Tigers this weekend and was highly impressed.
“This was definitely the experience I needed to kind of make my decision much easier,” Shull said in an interview with Auburn Undercover. “I would say definitely getting more of the campus vibe was a good part of it. Also just seeing everyone again was a pretty good experience. The most important part was getting to see the players mainly because you can see what they’re really like off campus and seeing if it’s a fit for me. And which, these guys are pretty awesome, they fit me well. They’re responsible, mature guys.”
Shull made his second visit to Auburn after visiting earlier this spring. This time, he left with a very positive feel about what all Auburn had offer throughout its campus facilities.
The four-star offensive lineman is currently ranked as the No. 149 player in the country and the No. 13 offensive tackle recruit according to the On3 industry ranking. He is also ranked the No. 3 prospect in the state of Oklahoma.
A main reason why Auburn now sits in a good position to land Shull can be credited to the relationship that offensive line coach [autotag]Jake Thornton[/autotag] has built with him.
With a possible decision day nearing later in June, Shull is still set to visit the likes of Texas Tech and Texas A&M during the month, while he already visited Nebraska in May.
Auburn football hosted several notable targets for visits over the weekend including five-stars [autotag]Caleb Cunningham[/autotag] and [autotag]Na’eem Offord[/autotag], as well as former Ohio State pledge [autotag]Blake Woodby[/autotag]. Any commitments from these players would be monumental for the program, and coach [autotag]Hugh Freeze[/autotag] is making sure that he does whatever he can to land the talented players.
