Four-star cornerback [autotag]Jalyn Crawford[/autotag] is one of Auburn’s top targets regardless of position.
Both [autotag]Wesley McGriff[/autotag] and [autotag]Zac Etheridge[/autotag] have been recruiting him and their hard work appears to be paying off as multiple On3 insiders believe he will be picking Auburn.
Cole Pinkston and Chad Simmons both logged predictions that he will commit to the Tigers on Friday, making them the heavy favorites over SEC rivals Florida and LSU. Auburn now has a 71% chance to land the Lilburn, Georgia, native according to the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine.
He is the No. 174 overall player and No. 20 cornerback in the On3 Industry Ranking. He is also the No. 25 player from Georgia.
Crawford took official visits to Florida, Auburn and LSU during June and is expected to announce his decision sometime during July. His trip to the Plains was his fifth time visiting Auburn.
Auburn is looking to add Crawford to an already loaded defensive back class that includes four-star cornerbacks [autotag]A’Mon Lane[/autotag] and [autotag]Jayden Lewis[/autotag] as well as four-star safety [autotag]Kensley Faustin[/autotag].
