One of the top defensive linemen in the 2026 recruiting class is officially on flip watch.
Corey Wells, the 4-star defensive lineman out of Petal HS in Petal, Miss., is currently committed to Texas, but he will be back in Auburn this weekend visiting Hugh Freeze and his staff as the Tigers take on Ball State.
“They’ve been recruiting me and my brother (Chris Wells) hard — every day,” Wells told Rivals. “It really picked back up after I committed. Auburn has stayed on me.”
247Sports has the 6-foot-5, 300-pound Wells as the 27th best defensive linemen in the 2026 class.
