The Auburn Tigers are one of the final four schools for three-star linebacker [autotag]Zavier Hamilton[/autotag]. The Navarre, Florida product announced a final four of Auburn, Florida State, Kansas, and South Carolina Friday on Twitter.
The 6-foot-2, 218-pounder has visited the Plains multiple times since being offered with his most recent trip being for the annual A-Day game.
The Tigers have already landed one commitment from the event, as three-star tight end Martavious Collins joined Auburn’s class on Friday.
He is the No. 532 overall player and No. 52 linebacker in the 247Sports Composite ranking. He is also the No. 77 player from the Sunshine State.
It looks like the Tigers will have to make up some ground to land Hamilton, the in-state Seminoles currently have a 20.7% chance to land him according to On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine but Auburn is right behind with an 18.1% chance.
Auburn has a need at linebacker after it did not sign a high school linebacker in the 2023 recruiting cycle and is still looking for its first commit in the 2024 cycle. However, they did add transfers [autotag]Austin Keys[/autotag] and [autotag]Demario Tolan[/autotag], who both have multiple seasons of eligibility left.
