On April 6th, Auburn's 2027 recruiting class just took a hit, dropping to only one commitment after three-star tied-in Trey Proctor, flipped to Kentucky on Thursday. Proctor was the Tigers' first pledge back on January 19th, 2026, under head coach Alex Goulish. The six-foot-four-and-a-half, two-thirteen-pound Florida standout, chose the Wildcats right after an official visit there on Wednesday. Auburn have been chasing Proctor since May 13th, 2025, starting with a scholarship offer from the old staff in sealing the deal. When Goulish arrived, he's ranked as the 761st best player nationally and the 41st tied-in in the 247st sports composite, plus the 73rd top prospect from Florida. This flip leaves fans scratching their heads, especially since Auburn's class is now dead last in the SEC. The only team with just a single commitment. That lone holdout is four-star defensive lineman Donovan Moore, a Bessamer-Aleban native sitting

at number 134 overall. The Tigers' class ranking has tumbled to 73rd nationwide, putting real pressure on the staff to ramp up offers and visits fast. With recruiting battles heating up across the conference, Auburn's got work cut out to rebuild momentum before the cycle spins further out of reach. I'm Corey with the story. That's your Auburn Tigers football news today update, AI powered and always on.
