Auburn is leaving its traditional recruiting territory in its pursuit of one of the best defensive linemen in the country. Four-star [autotag]Brandon Davis-Swain[/autotag] is from West Bloomfield, Michigan, and on Tuesday included the Tigers in his top five schools.
They are battling USC, Purdue, Michigan, and Colorado for the 6-foot-4, 240-pound defender.
Davis-Swain is the No. 146 overall player and No. 19 defensive lineman in the 247Sports Composite ranking. He is also the No. 4 player from Michigan.
Auburn quickly became involved in his recruitment after offering him a scholarship in January, he took a two-day visit to the Plains in March and now has Auburn as one of his top schools.
Davis-Swain had a dominant junior season for West Bloomfield High School, making 62 tackles, 15 tackles for loss, and 12 sacks.
Auburn’s 2024 class is off to a great start with four clue-chip commitments already but they are still looking for its first commitment along the defensive line.
