After hosting several impressive Junior Days this month, Auburn took a different route this weekend with just one unofficial visitor.
Four-star wide receiver [autotag]Travis Smith Jr.[/autotag] made the trek from Atlanta to the Plains and it left quite an impression on him.
“Today was amazing. Being the only on here for this unofficial visit was very fun,” Smith Jr. told Auburn Undercover. “Seeing their new facility for the first time, it was fun. It was great getting to know Coach (Hugh) Freeze and Coach (Marcus) Davis and Coach (Derrick) Nix. Having those conversations, they showed me the true them and what this program holds.”
It was his second visit to Auburn and allowed him to spend plenty of time with Freeze and learn more about his history of developing wide receivers.
“It was great,” Smith Jr. said. “Coming in I didn’t know his history on receivers, but just knowing that he produced A.J. Brown and guys like DK Metcalf, I’m sure he can definitely produce a guy like me. That was great to hear.”
Smith is the No. 196 overall player and No. 25 wide receiver in the 247Sports Composite ranking. The 6-foot-4, 191-pounder is also the No. 27 player from Georgia.
