Auburn University officially named [autotag]Hugh Freeze[/autotag] as the football program’s 31st head coach on Monday, Nov. 28. Now that the Tigers have their head coach, he now has 20 days to put the final touches on his first recruiting class.
He steps into a moderate situation as far as recruiting goes. Auburn currently ranks No. 32 in 247Sports 2023 recruiting rankings. That ranking has been raised drastically over the last week, as the Tigers have received commitments from four-star DL [autotag]Darron Reed[/autotag], and three-star EDGE [autotag]Brenton Williams[/autotag] over the last seven days.
Auburn has 13 commits to this point for 2023, with nine players listed as four-star talent. Freeze is of course given the task of building relationships with current commits, but he needs to reel in more talent in order to start his tenure on a high note.
Who are those top players that would give Auburn a boost in the 2023 recruiting rankings? Here is a list of uncommitted prospects, as well as those committed elsewhere, that Auburn has the chance to earn their National Letter of Intent.
