Saturday night’s loss to LSU didn’t deter two high school recruits from committing to Auburn on Sunday.
Steven Jacques, a 6-foot-4, 280-pound offensive lineman from Hollywood, Fla. (South Broward), and Montez Robinson, a 6-5, 235-pound defensive end from Avon, Ind., told Auburnsports.com Sunday that they both plan on signing with AU in February on National Signing Day.
Jacques and Robinson are Auburn’s 24th and 25th commitments of for the Class of 2009.
“I just like Auburn,” Jacques told Auburnsports.com on Sunday. “There’s something about Auburn that’s got me.”
Jacques is ranked as the No. 53 offensive guard in the country by Rivals.com, while the Web site also has Robinson as a four-star defensive end.
Jacques and Robinson were two of six official visitors to come to the Plains this weekend. They were joined by offensive lineman Aaron Moore (Frisco, Texas), who had already committed to Auburn, as well as Conor O’Neill (LB, Fort Lauderdale, Fla.), Shane Gordon (LB, Weston, Fla.) and Jared Wheeler (OL, Plantation, Fla.).
