Auburn Football Recruiting: Friday Rumors Roundup

The Auburn Tigers are making waves in recruiting this offseason, particularly on the defensive side of the ball after hiring new coordinator Will Muschamp. Here's the latest:

SIX FIVE-STAR RECRUITS VISITING THIS WEEKEND

Auburn is hoping to host six five-star prospects in the 2015 class this weekend, including three of the country’s top six uncommitted prospects.

DE Byron Cowart, DE CeCe Jefferson, DT Terry Beckner, Jr., and ATH Terry Godwin (all five-star recruits) are the headline big-time recruits tentatively scheduled to officially visit Auburn this weekend.

Auburn's team recruiting ranking has slipped outside the top ten to No. 12 nationally, and they're hoping this weekend could go a long way in putting them back in the top 10.

2016 DE COMMITS TO AUBURN

Quinnen Williams, a 6'4", 265 pound junior, committed to Auburn for the recruiting class of 2016.

Williams committed after visiting with new Auburn linebackers coach Lance Thompson on Friday. 

"He grew up a huge Auburn fan," Williams' father said. "We had one of those huge divided houses. I was an Alabama fan and his mom was an Auburn fan. His grandmother was an Auburn fan and he grew up an Auburn fan."
