Every week throughout the season, we’ll provide some video highlights of the SEC’s top commits.

SEC COMMITS

Marlon Character, S, 4-star Auburn commit (Atlanta, Georgia)

In what may have been the biggest signing of the week, Character pulled the old bait and switch on South Carolina, rescinding his commitment and choosing Auburn.

At 6-foot, 170 pounds Character will be able to play virtually anywhere in the Tigers secondary next season.

Jordan Thomas, TE, 3-star Mississippi State commit (Decatur, Miss.)

While No. 24 Mississippi State still has plenty to look forward to in 2015, next season will be challenging while trying to replace their senior record-setter for most passing yards and touchdowns in school history, QB Dak Prescott. Though freshman QB Nick Fitzgerald has played beautifully in Prescott’s limited absence this season, completing 10 of 11 passes for 231 yards and three touchdowns, next year will a bit of a reset for a team looking to go back-to-back double digit win seasons for the first time.

Recruiting is always key, and the Bulldogs added tight end Jordan Thomas to their list of commitments earlier this week. At 6-foot-6, 275 pounds, Thomas should give defensive backs and linebackers headaches. His combination of size and speed will be tough to stop.

Jordan Carmouche, OLB, 3-star Arkansas recruit (Manvel, Texas)

At 6-foot-1, 230 pounds, Carmouche is built more like a heavy defensive back than a linebacker, and he can hit at the point of attack.

Arkansas has just 7.0 sacks, last in the SEC (Auburn is second-to-last with nearly double the amount, 12.0 sacks). Arkansas will need help in the pass rush this offseason.

One player may not be enough to solidify a pass rush that has been missing in action all season, but Carmouche is a step in the right direction.

David Marshall, DE, 3-star Auburn commit (Thomaston, Georgia)

More good recruiting news in Auburn this weekend.

The 6-foot-2, 256-pound Marshall had been deciding between several SEC schools, including Alabama and Ole Miss, before choosing Auburn.

With tremendous strength at the point of attack, Marshall could make an explosive defensive end or tackle in college, but in order for the Georgia native to develop into a true run-stopper, he’ll have to add weight.
