With National Signing Day looming head coach Gus Malzahn and his staff are filling up the recruiting class just in time.
Last weekend Auburn had three players commit to play football next year.
On Friday, Jan. 25 the Tigers received verbal commitments from four-star wide receiver Dominic Walker and three-star linebacker Kenny Flowers.
Walker had been committed to play for Nebraska, but flipped to Auburn, citing the weather as his deciding factor. He will also be much closer to his home in Orlando.
Walker's current teammate, four-star wide receiver Tony Stevens, performed a similar flip to Auburn from Texas A&M Jan. 20.
Flowers was also a Texas A&M commit until the Aggies realized he would not be able to enroll in early classes and dropped him.
Malzahn swooped in and got a commitment from the linebacker.
Flowers is the third player from Hutchinson Community College that Auburn has received a commitment from. The other two are offensive guard DevonteDanzey and defensive tackle Ben Bradley.
The final commitment of the weekend came from three-star athlete Marcus Davis Sunday, Jan. 27.
Davis should fit in well with Malzahn's high-octane offense as a wide receiver.
Auburn is beginning to rake in wide receiver recruits and seem to be stable at the position for now, but there are still six solid days to secure depth at other positions.
The Tigers now have 19 commitments and are considered the No. 15 recruiting class in the nation by ESPN.com.
