Auburn football received some good news on Christmas when four-star wideout [autotag]Alex Taylor[/autotag] included Auburn in his top 10.
The Greensboro, North Carolina, native has a final 10 of Auburn, Wake Forest, NC State, ECU, Clemson, Penn State, Missouri, West Virginia, North Carolina and Virginia Tech.
He is the No. 41 wide receiver and No. 28 overall player in the 247Sports composite for the 2024 recruiting class. He is the No. 7 player from North Carolina.
The 6-foot-2, 178-pounder had an impressive junior season for Grimsley High School, catching 65 passes for 1,034 yards and 12 touchdowns in 16 games. He also recorded three interceptions as a defender.
Taylor was offered by Ike Hilliard and the previous coaching staff in September but he is clearly still interested in the Tigers. It will be interesting to see if Auburn’s new staff dials up the pursuit.
Auburn already has two commitments in the 2024 cycle, four-star quarterback Adrian Posse and four-star cornerback A’Mon Lane.
