Auburn in top eight for 4-star WR Karmello English

This would be a fun addition.

Karmello English is the latest in a long line of elite wide receivers to come out of Central-Phenix City.

Justyn Ross and E.J Williams both starred at Central before heading to Clemson, but Auburn is hoping to keep English in his home state. The Tigers look to have a good chance to do that after being included in his top eight schools.

The Tigers will be battling West Virginia, Georgia, Alabama, Cincinnati, Penn State, Arkansas, and Mississippi State.

The 5-foot-11 and 175-pound English is the No. 18 wide receiver and No. 111 national recruit in the 247Sports composite ranking for the 2023 recruiting class. He is also ranked as the 10th best player in Alabama.

Auburn is looking for their first commitment of the 2023 class but is going after several elite prospects.
