4-star PF Nic Codie on visiting Auburn: ‘I had to come find out what it’s about’

Auburn received Nic Codie’s final visit before his commitment on Nov. 2.

[autotag]Nic Codie[/autotag] is nearing the end of his recruitment but before then, he had to make one last visit. The four-star power visit was in Auburn to check out the basketball program as well as watch the football team beat Mississippi State inside Jordan-Hare Stadium.

This visit gave him plenty to consider.

“This is the last chance,” Codie told Auburn Undercover’s Jason Caldwell. “When I get home, me and my family are going to discuss it and talk about it the whole week. I had to take this visit because Auburn has a lot to offer. Their past and development of players is really intriguing. I had to come find out what it’s about.”

Down to Auburn, Houston, LSU, Miami, TCU and Virginia Tech, he explained the three main factors in his decision, which will come on Nov. 2.

“I’m looking for a place that’s like family,” he said. “A place I can have fun at. That’s a real big thing to me. Also, where I can win. I have a winning attitude. Also, someone that can develop me into a pro. Those are the three main things along with a coaching staff that can make my family feel comfortable sending me to.”

Auburn 4-star power forward target Nic Codie sets commitment date

Auburn is one of seven finalist for the elite power forward.

[autotag]Nic Codie[/autotag] is one of the top power forwards in the country and on July 25,  he included Auburn in his top seven schools. The Carrollton, Texas, product is now ready to wrap up his recruitment and has set a commitment date of Nov. 2.

He will be deciding between Auburn, Houston, LSU, Miami, TCU, Texas and Virginia Tech. The 6-foot-9, 200-pounder has visited each school but Auburn but has an official visit set for Oct. 20.

That visit will allow him a chance to check out what Auburn fans are like during a game as the football team will be hosting Ole Miss, a tactic that [autotag]Bruce Pearl[/autotag] has frequently used on key targets.

Codie is the No. 51 overall player and No. 10 power forward in the 247Sports composite ranking. He is also the No. 1 player from Texas.

Auburn currently has one commitment in the 2024 recruiting cycle, five-star point guard [autotag]Tahaad Pettiford[/autotag].

Four star PF Nic Codie lists Auburn among top choices

Auburn is in the running to land the No. 6 power forward from the 2024 class.

[autotag]Bruce Pearl[/autotag] might be on his way to signing another top recruit.

[autotag]Nic Codie[/autotag], a 6-foot-8 forward from Carrollton, Texas, listed Auburn among his top choices.

Other than Auburn, Houston, LSU, Miami, TCU, Texas, and Virginia Tech are in the running.

In an interview with On3’s Joe Tipton, Codie says that he wants to go to a program that can develop him, as well as provide a family atmosphere.

“I want a coach that is going to develop me and let me know,” Codie said. I don’t want to play in a system that just focuses on one part of my game, I want to grow and develop my entire game. Early playing time is something that I’m looking at. I want to be at a place I can compete for early minutes.”

Codie is a four-star recruit according to On3. He is the No. 37 player in the class of 2024, the No. 6 power forward, and the No. 2 player in the state of Texas.

He would join five-star guard [autotag]Tahaad Pettitford[/autotag] in Auburn’s 2024 class if he were to choose the Tigers.

LSU makes the cut for top-60 power forward prospect

The Tigers are still looking for their first commitment in the 2024 class.

LSU is still searching for the first commitment in its 2024 basketball recruiting class, but coach [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag] has the Tigers in the mix for a number of top prospects.

One of them is four-star Carrolton (Tex.) Newman Smith power forward [autotag]Nic Codie[/autotag], who ranks as the No. 55 player nationally according to both 247Sports and On3. Codie recently trimmed his list of programs down to seven, and LSU made the cut.

Also included in that group are Auburn, Houston, Miami, TCU, Texas and Virginia Tech.

The 6-foot-8 prospect has already taken official visits to Houston and TCU, while Texas hosted him unofficially. The Cougars are a slim favorite followed by the Horned Frogs and Longhorns.

LSU has some work to do here, but Codie would be an incredible pickup for this class. The Tigers will hope to get him on campus before he makes a decision.
