Tre Donaldson commits to Auburn

Auburn got the commitment from a big-time athlete on Thursday.

The Auburn Tigers add another sought-after player.

Tre Donaldson announced his decision Thursday that he would play for Auburn at the college level. He is a two-sport athlete that is ranked highly as in football and basketball.

The 6-foot-1, 190-pound safety and point guard will add a ton of athleticism to Auburn’s two teams.

Donaldson picked Auburn over Alabama, Florida State, and Florida.

On his 247Sports profile, Andrew Irvins about Donaldson’s ability.

A gifted athlete that not only starts at both quarterback and safety for his high school, but also doubles as a legitimate high-level basketball recruit. Viewed by most Power 5 football staffs as a full-time defender given his ability to make plays in coverage and stops in the open field. Uses thicker frame to his advantage as he oftentimes arrives on scene with the intentions of leveling someone. Does a nice job of gaining depth with his read steps and then reacting to what’s going on in front of him. Posted an elite short shuttle time the spring before his senior season.

Donaldson announced live on CBS Sports HQ.
