Defensive line: 4-star Nathan Pickering, Seminary, Miss.

Nathan Pickering didn’t end up making his second Auburn visit last weekend, as expected, but the Tigers have him on the docket for the weekend of March 24.

Pickering’s return plans to the Plains show how interested he is in the Tigers. He has taken several college visits this spring, but he continues to say how much the Auburn visit stood out. Pickering will be courted by anyone and everyone, including Alabama, Georgia, LSU and his in-state schools, so this won’t be an easy recruiting win in Mississippi.

Auburn hopes new assistant coach Marcus Woodson’s ties to the state will be the difference maker.

Second choice: 4-star Justin Eboigbe, Forest Park, Ga.


Everybody thinks they are landing Pickering.

Linebacker: 5-star Owen Pappoe, Loganville, Ga.

Owen Pappoe probably is the best-case commitment Auburn could land — regardless of position.

The No. 7 overall prospect in the nation plays a position that is losing three seniors from the 2018 Auburn roster. He comes from a high school known to be a college football pipeline, so it would generate a recruiting ripple effect for the Tigers at Grayson High School and the metro Atlanta area.

The truth: It won’t be easy to beat Georgia for Pappoe. He admitted as much Sunday. But prospects such as Pappoe are worth the effort, especially when he said Travis Williams is his strongest recruit-coach relationship.

Second choice: 5-star Nakobe Dean, Horn Lake, Miss.
