Auburn football‘s most critical recruiting weekend of the year is upon us.
Last year’s Big Cat Weekend event was special as it allowed Auburn to gain ground on several recruits while earning the pledge of others. [autotag]Perry Thompson[/autotag] was Auburn’s notable commitment from last year’s event as he flipped from Alabama to Auburn. The five-star wide receiver celebrated the moment by throwing Auburn head coach Hugh Freeze into a pool.
Auburn will host several uncommitted recruits this weekend, and will look to seal the deal before they depart from campus. Key recruits such as five-star EDGE [autotag]Jared Smith[/autotag], four-star safety [autotag]Anquon Fegans[/autotag], and four-star cornerback [autotag]Blake Woodby[/autotag] will announce their college commitments shortly after visiting Auburn, so this weekend’s visits will need to go well in order for Auburn to earn their pledges.
