This weekend’s Big Cat Weekend at Auburn University is set to be a major recruiting event, and two high school teammates from Thompson High School could potentially commit to the Tigers. Anquon Fegans, a 4-star safety, and Jared Smith, a 5-star edge rusher, are the key prospects to watch.
Fegans, who was previously committed to USC, has visited Auburn twice this spring and is now evaluating his options more closely. Although he has toured five other schools—LSU, Georgia, Miami, Clemson, and Washington—many experts predict he may choose Auburn. His commitment date is scheduled for July 29, but he might decide to commit sooner given the positive buzz surrounding Auburn.
Smith, who was initially leaning towards South Carolina, has recently shown increased interest in Auburn. He has visited Auburn before and is scheduled to attend Big Cat Weekend. Smith has also officially visited USC, Georgia, Ole Miss, and South Carolina. With Auburn gaining traction in his recruitment, he has set his commitment date for August 3, shortly after Big Cat Weekend. Expert predictions suggest he might also choose Auburn.
Overall, the weekend could bring significant developments, especially with these two high-profile prospects closely considering Auburn.
