Auburn Football lands a massive commitment from 4-star offensive tackle Leighton Von Brandt!

In this episode, Ike Jones breaks down the huge news as Auburn secures one of the top high school offensive line prospects in the country. For years, the narrative has been that Auburn struggles to pull blue-chip offensive tackles straight out of high school, but Coach Alex Golesh and OL Coach Tyler Hudanick just turned the recruiting world on its head.

We dive deep into the numbers, what this means for the 2027 recruiting class, and address the "Three-Star U" critics who have been stressing out in the chat lately. Plus, we take a look at Von Brandt's remaining summer official visit schedule and discuss Auburn's smart, judicial approach to the NIL landscape.
