Auburn makes top-8 list of in-state cornerback

A four-star cornerback has announced his commitment date and is keeping Auburn in mind.

Auburn is in the running to land an in-state cornerback that would add value to their 2023 recruiting class.

Avery Stuart, a four-star cornerback from Alabama Christian Academy in Montgomery, is closer to announcing his commitment after releasing his top-8 list on Sunday, which features Auburn.

Stuart has been on the Tigers’ radar since last August, as the Tigers became the third school to offer Stuart after Ole Miss and Penn State. Since being offered by Auburn, Stuart has received offers from 16 programs, including three SEC programs in Kentucky, Mississippi State, and Arkansas.

Stuart visited Auburn on January 29, which was unofficial. According to 247sports, Stuart has only taken two official visits, which have taken place over the month of June. The weekend of June 10, Stuart visited Kentucky. At the time of this post, Stuart had just wrapped up an official visit to Florida State.

While there are no sure predictions for Stuart, On3 gives Florida State a 31% chance to land Stuart. Stuart is set to announce his official commitment on July 6.

Stuart is rated as a four-star cornerback by both On3 and 247sports. He is the 22nd ranked corner in the nation, as well as the No. 22 ranked prospect in the state of Alabama.
