Bryan Harsin picked up his second commitment of the afternoon, after 4-star wide receiver Omari Kelly picked Auburn on Thursday.



Kelly decided on Auburn over other schools like Alabama, Georgia and UCF. The commitment comes just 25 days after Kelly took an unofficial visit to the Plains.

Hailing from Trussville, Alabama, Kelly is the No. 19 athlete in the nation, according to 247 Sports composite rankings. He’s the 11th commit and fifth 4-star recruit to join Harsin’s class of 2022.

The 6-foot-2 athlete was the second to announce his commitment today, hours after dual-sport athlete Tre Donaldson announced he was committing to Auburn as well. Harsin has now reeled in four commitments in August.
