7. Auburn
Number of verbal commitments: 8
Key recruit: Dee Liner
Still on the board: Kevin Olsen
Next year's name to know: Racean Thomas
Freshman to follow: Demetrice Vaughn
Comment: Liner, Trey Johnson and Carl Lawson give Auburn the foundation of a very impressive front seven that is bolstered by Cameron Toney and Jarrad Davis. The most interesting storyline for Auburn is that Reuben Foster, the nation's No. 3 recruit, now attends Auburn (Auburn, Ala.) He insists that he's committed to Alabama, but it's a long way until National Signing Day.
