Auburn landed two commits on Monday, with the second coming later in the evening. Alongside Austin Ausberry, head coach Bryan Harsin got his second commit in Marquise Gilbert, the No. 1 rated JUCO safety in the country.

Gilbert announced his commitment to the Tigers via Twitter.

In seven games played for Hutchinson Community College in Hutchinson, Kansas, Gilbert recorded 12 tackles. He also had three turnovers, forcing a fumble and snagging two interceptions, one that he returned for a touchdown.

He's the third defensive back committed to playing under Harsin.
