Recruiting has been a hot topic around Auburn University since the calendar turned to June. [autotag]Hugh Freeze[/autotag] and staff have made their pitches to many of the nation’s most talented recruits for the 2024 cycle in hopes they will commit to Auburn.
On Tuesday, Freeze locked in two more commitments to the 2024 cycle. Four-star safety [autotag]Kensley Faustin[/autotag] and three-star wide receiver [autotag]Bryce Cain[/autotag] both visited Auburn recently and quickly announced their commitment to the program.
Cain became the first commitment of the day, announcing his pledge just after 5 p.m. CT. Cain was a heavy lean to Ole Miss before visiting Auburn last weekend, but the campus tour was enough to separate Auburn from Lane Kiffin and the Rebels.
The Mobile native says that Auburn feels “like home.”
“The coaches can develop and I feel like they can take me to the next level. I love it here,” Cain tells Auburn Undercover. It just feels like home. It feels like the best place for me. I can fit in with everybody. It’s great, I love it.”
Faustin announced his commitment shortly after Cain revealed his decision. Faustin, like Cain, took his official visit to Auburn last weekend. While there, Auburn coaches shared how they would like to fit Faustin into their scheme, which was appealing to the Naples, Florida native.
“They see me fitting in at whatever position is going to get me on the field early,” Faustin said in an interview with Auburn Undercover. “They see me as a safety, star, nickel, whatever’s going to get me on the field. They see me as very versatile, and that’s what they like about me.”
Here’s a look at what both Faustin and Cain bring to the table:
